Viability!

Today I’m exactly 24 weeks which means this pregnancy has hit viability.  24 weeks is considered viability because if the baby were born as early as today, she would have a 40% chance of survival.  Obviously this is *not* what I want but it’s a relief to know I’ve hit a milestone and that NICU’s are advanced enough to sustain life from this extremely premature stage (babies born this early are sometimes referred to as micro-preemies).
