"I'm a first time parent with a 2yr old. For me, hearing and seeing that pulsing blip. "That's the heart." I cried with joy! It solidified my position like a rock to advocate life."

Same here...what struck me was the ferocity of that little heartbeat.

What also stuck me was how my second boy jammed his hand in his mouth 5 seconds after passing out of Mommy. He's 5 months old now and still does it...but he's probably been sucking on that fist for 10 months now....5 months inside Mommy and 5 months outside Mommy.

As we said in the Army, "Same sh*t, different day."

If you think about what abortion is: itis the legalized murder for anyone under 9 months old...whether a baby is inside Mommy or outside Mommy has no bearing on anything.

Now with the all the Preemies, even this 9 month marker is irrelevent. Leaving Mommy at 6,7,8,9 months...what's the difference?

My granddaughter was equally independent her first hours of being born: the nurses insisted on tightly wrapping her up in her blanket like a cocoon (with her arms down next to her sides) ...

And she would be equally insistent on not going to sleep until BOTH hands were loose and up next to her ears.
