Too be honest, speaking from experience I lost my daughter at 21 weeks. The baby is too young to survive.. However, I did have a premature baby at 22 weeks actually 23 weeks because my water broke and I had too stay at the hospital for a week, so that the baby lungs can develop. My son was eventually born and weigh 1 pound 8 ounces... He had too stay at the hospital for about 3 mth's before I could take him home...
He survived and now he is 7 years old and doing well...

There is a chance but it is very very slim. Docs also say the earlier a baby is born and lives the more likely it will be to have serious health problems which may end up in the death of the baby, not the actual gestation being to blame. but then there are always exceptions.

the shortest length of pregnancy after which a child born prematurely has a chance of survival. Generally, this ranges from 20-27 weeks.

A baby born at 21 weeks has only a very small chance of survival. They would need special care for a lengthy period of time.
Go to your doctor.

Michelle,
You have asked this same question at least 5 times!
Go to your doctor!!!!!!!!!
Why are you asking people online what to do?? Are you just looking for sympathy to get attention?
If your seriously pregnant for the 8TH time, You need more help then the people here can give you!
2 WEEKS AGO, YOU ASKED THE SAME QUESTION AND YOU SAID YOU WERE 17 WEEKS PREGNANT.
IF MY MATH IS CORRECT, YOU WOULD NOW BE 19 WEEKS PREGNANT!

the law has just changed and a baby born at 22 weeks or before won't be resucitated because the chance of survivla is so low.

I think you should consult your doctor if you have pain in order to take steps as rarely baby will survive if he born at 21 week

wow! your eight child!,. I was born at 24 weeks and I survived, but I guess I was lucky, not everybody gets the same chances, some babies are just more resilient than otheres so just pray yours is one of the toughies
