39. Something isn't right in the numbers for her pregnancy.

Tue Mar 15, 2022, 10:47 AM

Mar 2022

Normal gestation is 40 weeks. Giving birth 24 weeks early would put the gestation at 16 weeks, which is not viable. The baby would not likely be 1 lb 10 oz at that stage, either. So, maybe confusion? Babies may be viable at 24 weeks, and could be 1 lb 10 oz. in size, so maybe that is when the baby was born.

People make bad decisions all the time. It's very sad, regardless of their politics. My daughter was stillborn at 22 weeks and my heart goes out to them for their loss.
