Different states have different laws. Here in Kansas there is a strong ‘health of the mother’ clause. And George Tiller interpreted that to mean psychological health...so Kansas became an wbortion Mecca, with people coming in from all over the country to make him rich, in exchange for tearing up their well formed babies. He was killed...now another doctor has taken over the practice. This doctor operates like a ‘circuit court’ and flies around the country to clinics in states with lax laws...a week doing late term abortions in state a....next week in state b. Why? Its apparently really hard to find a doctor willing to do it.
Ectopic pregnancies are a whole different matter.
My twin nephews were born at 23 weeks. They are 5 years old now, and healthy. I want to throw up when considering what happens to babies much later than 23 weeks.
BTW, the NHS in Britain has a cutoff of 22 weeks. A baby born earlier than that will get no medical care and be left to die. Sort of a socialized medicine death panel on the front end of life.
Phony stat, but for the sake of argument let's do the math:
There are roughly 700,000 abortions in the US reported per year.
1.3% x 700,000 = 9100 late-term abortions per year.
So even using the establishment's low-ball numbers, there are almost 10,000 babies sliced to pieces in late term abortions in this country, every year.
Some years ago the abortion industry (along with Senators Barbara Boxer, Hillary Clinton et al) proclaimed that late term abortions were "exceedingly rare."
Then a courageous reporter for the Bergen Record (surprisingly) reported that one so-called "clinic" abortuary in Englewood, NJ, performed 1500 partial birth abortions per year. The "clinic" abortuary made no bones about it ... so to speak... admitting that a "minuscule" number of late abortions committed there were done for "health reasons."

I can understand that too but like you said ectopic pregnancies don’t go beyond 10 weeks and even then sometimes you can take a “wait and see”under medical care because frequently the mother will miscarry the baby.
KILLary is such a nasty, evil woman.

Human history is the record of the baby being worth more than the mother. Hillary insists on being progressive and trashing all of human history
Those are in the first couple of months and are generally not considered abortions morally.
That is because there is currently no way to save the baby, you can only save the mother.
At some point we will have the technology to remove the baby and implant him in the womb where he belongs and many women will be saved the heart break that brings.
Not quite accurate. Sometimes when the mother died in childbirth it was customary to bury the living baby with her if there was not another woman in the group who was willing or able to wet nurse.
This would usually happen to a fall or winter baby. The milk animals had dried up, food was rationed and producing enough milk for two babies is quite a strain on the wet nurse.
The baby is a future asset but a current drain, the mother is a current asset. So depending on the situation sometimes the mother was valued more then the baby.
I myself have gone through a false pregnancy. a molar pregnancy specifically, I had two options. Wait out the miscarriage naturally or a d and c procedure. I am very very pro life and struggled to decide what to do. There was never a baby, just a mass that grew as tho it were one. I chose to go through with the procedure... Anyone else catch the fact that Hillary talked one min about killing these children but the next talked about saving the toddlers?? Guess it’s too late to commit murder after their born eh?
Japanese researchers were keeping goat fetuses alive in artificial wombs for seventeen weeks, to term ... sixteen years ago!
Yes, she’s a bleeding heart when it comes to gun control but God help you if you are pre-born in her world.
Course, then there’s that trail of dead bodies that follow her and her husband.
I’m sorry to hear about your loss. I’m heard about that condition and known a few women who’ve had it also.
I do appreciate it your condolences, I do pray this woman is out of the picture soon!!
