Lani has experienced the loss of a pregnancy at 8-week gestation and is upset, feeling at fault for the loss in some way.
Lani speaks to a friend, Fetu, who is a human development researcher. What could Fetu tell Lani about pregnancy loss
at this stage?
This is called stillbirth and happens to nearly all pregnancies.
This is called implantation and happens to about 20 percent of zygotes.
This is known as early miscarriage and happens to about 20 percent of embryos.
This is known as viability and happens at eight weeks.
