This is weird but I've heard this from two different people recently. Is it true that babies born in the 8th month have a high risk of being stillborn? Furthermore, I heard that babies born in 7th month have a higher survival rate than those in the 8th.
Sounds weird to me.

That is silly. Many babies are born in the 8th month. My 3rd son was and he was just fine. There is not truth in that at all.

It is not true don't believe everything you hear being born in the 5th & 6th month is where the highest risk for still birth is By the eigth month all the baby is doing is gaining weight the vital organs are pretty much completly developed. In all the pregnancy books it tells you step by step what is being developed and when. Don't worry you and your baby will be fine. My daughter was born in the seventh month and was fully developed just very small we had to keep her very warm for the first couple weeks now she is 4 and does not stop.

I've never heard of that. I doubt that's true. They always say that every signle day your baby stays in the womb it ups the chances of survival. In your 8th month the baby has been in the womb far longer than in the 7th month.
That seems pretty ridiculous to me.

I heard this too!!!! My cousin told me it is because something to do with the lung development in the 8th month....its a vital month.....and for some reason 7 month premies have a higher survival rate!? I don't know how accurate it is, but I too, heard this!!
SCARY!

what do you recommend the toddler separates? Do you recommend that as quickly as the toddler is born the toddler seperates from the womb? Seperates from the placenta? Seperates from the mum's umblical cord? Heck, my pal had her twins born whilst she grow to be purely 4 months pregnant
