Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
I am sorry to hear about your loss. A pregnancy of 12 weeks if it is delivered cannot survive at all outside the uterus under any circumstances. A baby has to be at least 28 weeks mature to be able to survive with a world class mdical care outside the uterus.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Regards,
