The embryonic heart rate (EHR) then accelerates linearly for the first month of beating, peaking at 165-185 BPM during the early 7th week, (early 9th week after the LMP). This acceleration is approximately 3.3 BPM per day, or about 10 BPM every three days, an increase of 100 BPM in the first month. [18]

The next period is that of fetal development where many organs become fully developed.
There is no sharp limit of development, age, or weight at which a fetus automatically becomes viable. [21] According to data from 2003 to 2005, survival rates are 20–35% for babies born at 23 weeks of gestation (5 + 3 ⁄ 4 months); 50–70% at 24–25 weeks (6 – 6 + 1 ⁄ 4 months); and >90% at 26–27 weeks (6 + 1 ⁄ 2 – 6 + 3 ⁄ 4 ...
