I do think that some women feel guilt after seeing the baby after the abortion. I have worked in medical laboratories for 30+ years. I have seen aborted babies. They are fully developed at the end of the first trimester. From then on they just grow. I think the bulk of those seeking abortion, particularly the teen-age girls, really have no idea that the baby will even look like a baby (reference the movie JUNO). I do think it is a shock when the ‘products of conception’ are there in a bucket for them to see. They should be required to see videos of their babies before they commit to killing them. Informed consent. I suspect it would drastically cut down of the number of abortions.

I’m sure abortion has moral ramifications for the mother, either immediately or at some point down the road. (And those who claim they feel none are, I think, denying reality.) At any rate, there has to be some type of damages which is actionable or cognizable in a court of law. I suppose there could be some argument of pain and suffering along the lines of family members of condemned prisoners who see the execution botched, but this type of case really puts the pro-abortionists in a quandary. Do they support this young woman’s suit on the pain and suffering of knowing your child lived and then was disposed of? Or do they continue on their fantasy that abortion has no emotional or spiritual ramifications for the mother? Inquiring minds will be watching to see their reaction.
