I would be willing to bet that nearly every obstetrician and gynecologist would advise their patients to avoid stressful situations and traumatic events while pregnant because it can cause miscarriages.
Additionally I would bet that most physicians who are counseling their female patients who want to get pregnant would strongly advise theor patients to avoid the same type of stressful situations and traumatic events during those periods in which they are trying to conceive.
If, in fact, traumatic events can trigger miscarriages or otherwise interfere with the ability to conceive, which has been the standard medical opinion since the dawn of modern medicine, then Akin’s opinion on the issue is more valid than all of these uneducated Freepers who insist their is absolutely no causal correlation.
So what? Completele irrelevant to anything being discuses relative to Federal policy towards abortion.
