Not that it makes it any better, but that's not how very late term abortions are usually performed. The baby's skull is too hard and turning the baby around for a breech birth is very difficult.

Instead, they use a long needle and inject poison directly into the baby's heart in utero, causing a fatal heart attack (which I'm sure is horrifically painful for the child), and then induce labor to deliver the dead baby.

It is just as hazardous for the mother as a full-term live birth pregnancy, so any pretense that it's "required for the health of the mother" is a flat-out lie.

Yes, I have read about inducing a heart attack in utero, and my first thought was that it must be very painful to the baby. Just because you can't watch the baby clutching its tiny chest and wincing in pain doesn't mean it doesn't occur. And, at that late stage in the pregnancy, whether they deliver a live infant and raise it or abort the killed infant, it affects the mother the same way physically. So saying this is "beneficial" to the mother is a bunch of libtard baloney. It would only benefit a mother who doesn't want to be a mother. And she had 9 months to abort this baby at a far earlier and less sentient stage. Where was she then?
