ANSWER:
This is a million dollar question. From doing extensive research I have found the most accurate list of estimated survival rates:
Prematurity
Advances in medical care have made it possible for many infants born prematurely to survive and develop normally. The earlier the gestational age, the greater the chance of death or significant medical problems. Whether or not a premature infant will survive is intimately tied to his or her gestational age:
21 weeks or less: 0 percent survival rate
22 weeks: 0-10 percent survival rate
23 weeks: 10-35 percent survival rate
24 weeks: 40-70 percent survival rate
25 weeks: 50-80 percent survival rate
26 weeks: 80-90 percent survival rate
27 weeks: greater than 90 percent survival rate
But these are just statistics, with the right equipment and the proper care, anything is possible.
ANSWER
Chances can be ok. My niece delivered a baby at 18 weeks. He is now 6 months old and doing GREAT. It takes patience and good doctoring and a lot of time in ICU. You of course want the baby to stay in the womb as long as possible. We beat the odds, anyone can now a days. Little Jake weighted when born 11 0z. so it can be done and he now weights a whopping 14 pounds.
God bless you and keep the faith- do what ever the doctors tell you to do.
ANSWER
Zero, there is no physical way (as far as technology takes us at this stage). And there is no way that an 18 week old fetus would survive, this would be the story of the century around the world.

When does a human fetus have a 50 percent survival rate?
At 25 weeks!
How early can a fetus survive on its own?
As early as 24 weeks, although this is not a 100% survival rate.
Can babys live 9 weeks early?
a fetus can medically survive from 24 weeks, so theorectically can survivve then on, so at 31 weeks would stand a better chance than a 24 week fetus, however this does depend on the circumstances surronding the birth, mothers medical history and wellness of the baby, no one will give 100% survival rate even to a full term baby.
What is the survival rate of a fetus born in 30th weeks?
Over 90% survival rate for a fetus born at 30 weeks, and each extra week in the womb adds to the survival rate, and the overall development of the fetus. There is always the risk of problems with a premie, but with today's advanced technology, care, and success stories long- term disabilities are very low risk, but still possible; it all depends on he fetus's development, and maturity. Every pregnancy, and fetus is different.
If a fetus at 8 weeks has a heart rate at 300 what does this mean?
Usually this is not possible condition for a fetus
What is the survival rate for prematurity or premature birth?
The survival rate for gestational period of 21 weeks or less: 0%; 22 weeks: 0-10%; 23 weeks: 10-35%; 24 weeks: 40-70%; 25 weeks: 50-80%; 26 weeks: 80-90%; 27 weeks: greater than 90%.
Does the heart rate of a fetus change?
The baby's heart begins to beat at about five weeks after your last menstrual period, or three weeks after conception. It can be visualized with an ultrasound, but not heard with a Doppler until later in the pregnancy.
What is the survival rate of a 24 week gestation?
The survival rate of a human newborn at 24 weeks is about 40%-70% depending on individual circumstances. The odds go up by about 3% each day around this time. My brother was born 3 months early, and he lived and is perfect and healthy.
How premature can a baby be born healthily?
That is very dependant on both the current health of the baby and the mother. I delivered four healthy babies at 33 +4 weeks, with no long term complication. From memory after 29 weeks there is a 90% survival rate.
What is heart rate of foetus 7 weeks and 3 days?
A normal heartbeat of a fetus at 6-7 weeks would be 90-110 beats per minute.
Which side of the Titanic had the most survival rate?
Portside had the most survival rate
How does the number of offspring born relate to the offspring's survival rate?
It's gestation period
