From an article in The Journal of Clinical Nursing:
Second trimester terminations require the woman concerned to go through an induced labour, the result of which is a fetus in a very human form. This event requires sensitive management as it is has the potential to cause a great deal of distress for the women involved due to the psychological and physical impact of the procedure. However, health professionals involved can also find this a distressing clinical event due to the complex nature of the management and care required.

This is only one way to do a second trimester abortion. Others are done by D & E, where the baby is dismembered inside the mothers body.
