In her memoir, abortionist Christine Henneberg wrote about a woman who had an abortion because she believed she was carrying a boy and wanted a girl.
Henneberg, who watched the abortion via ultrasound as she committed it, saw that the child was, in fact, a girl—but didn’t tell the woman.
Instead, she allowed the woman to believe she’d aborted a boy instead of the girl she wanted. An Ambivalent Woman
The woman was 14 weeks pregnant. When she was on the abortion table, she said, “I didn’t want to be here today, you know.”
Henneberg didn’t stop the abortion and discuss alternatives, or make sure the patient truly wanted the abortion. Instead, Ronnie, the abortion worker assisting Henneberg, said, “It’s okay. Nobody wants to end up here.”
Apparently, a woman saying she doesn’t really want an abortion is business as usual in Henneberg’s abortion facility—no need for more counseling.
The woman having the abortion continued to talk, mentioning the two little boys she had at home.
Henneberg writes:
From my secluded, light-filled perch between the woman’s legs, I glanced up at Ronnie. A silent sigh passed between us. We both knew this was the best way to get a woman through these 10 minutes: get her talking about the kids she already has.
“These 10 minutes” refers to the time it takes to commit a suction aspiration abortion.
These abortion providers seem to find it easy to discuss pregnant women’s other children as they kill the babies in their wombs.
She Didn’t Want Another Son
Henneberg says of the woman, “[h]er inhibitions [were] down, narcotic pulsing through her veins.”
This, Henneberg implies, is the reason the woman continued talking, saying:
Every single morning I’m getting sick. That’s how come I gotta do this, you know… I mean; we want more kids. But we want a girl this time. And when I got to be three months along and I was still getting sick every morning, my mama said, ‘You know you gotta go in there to the clinic.’
‘Mm-hmm,’ Ronnie cooed to her. I kept my head bent low as I peered down the speculum.
She said, ‘You know you don’t never get sick after three months if you havin’ a girl.’”
But both Ronnie and Henneberg could see, clearly, on the ultrasound, that the baby they were aborting was a girl. A Sex-Selective Abortion that Shouldn’t Have Happened
Henneberg had already dilated the woman’s cervix and broken her water. She says, “There was nothing to be said or done. Suddenly, forcefully, I was the one without options—the doctor. Every choice, every freedom, I had yielded to her.”
Even if it was too late to stop the abortion, the abortion facility was negligent in not giving the pregnant woman proper counseling.
Had they asked her why she chose abortion, they would’ve known she thought the baby was male. They could’ve told her the baby was female.
The abortion would never have happened.
Henneberg aborted the little girl and watched her death on the ultrasound screen:
On the ultrasound screen… I watched her fetus tumble under the tip of the cannula, somersaulting with every flick of my wrist, then disappearing from the cushioned warmth of her sacrum and whipping through my hands—gone.
Henneberg could clearly see the baby’s features as she was being aborted and could tell that the baby was a girl. The child was only 14 weeks along, but clearly visible as a girl on the ultrasound screen.
Here are 3D sonograms of babies at 14 weeks. This is how developed the child was when she was killed.
Henneberg never told the woman that her child was a girl. This mother will never know that she aborted a daughter and not a son.
Henneberg’s observations also show that stories from former abortion workers about seeing babies aborted on the ultrasound screen are true.

Child-slaughterers, the lot of them. They deserve to burn forever for their heinous acts.
Pray for her sons. They have a tough road ahead.
Pray for them. Prayer has made a lot of abortionist quit and become prolife.
The modern day Moloch.
Sometimes two bad people meet up with each other.
Some people just get a thrill out of killing kids.
Sadly, there are no words to describe their evil. It is a soul issue, not mental or physical.
Sad what we have become.
Designer babies....
The abortionist, knew that the baby was a girl, but chose not to tell the patient, and so the patient never found out the truth?
>comment deleted by texas eagle because mods would just remove it anyway<
Abhorent!!
If most heard she aborted puppies, there’d be more outrage!
We live in a SICK,SICK,SICK society!!!
So why did she think it was a boy to begin with?
Sounds like a lot more lies going on...
The abortionist, knew that the baby was a girl, but chose not to tell the patient, and so the patient never found out the truth?

The “patient “ was there to kill her child because it was not a girl. It would serve her right to learn the truth.
She thought it was a boy because her mama told her she was still having morning sickness because it was a boy; her mama believed that if it was a girl the morning sickness would have gone away earlier.
She believed her mother. You should be able to trust your mom but here we have two women, both mothers, and both wrong-headed with weak maternal instincts and ethics, only worried about themselves and not the life of the defenseless.
I don’t know what kind of mother would not want another grandkid, but there are old hags still protesting for planned parenthood. Maybe she had been taking care of the other two if her daughter was unwed, at home, and still actively having sex, and grandma didn’t want another burden.
Big time!
That is a troubling story on all involved.
That’s why you never EVER vote for a Democrat; the party’s main plank in the platform is abortion.
Yes, we need to be reminded, as painful as it is.
