(Note: Fetal brainwaves can be detected as early as the sixth week of pregnancy, and fetal heartbeat usually begins between days 18 and 21.)

So basically only women with 28 day cycles who have a pregnancy test come back positive within two weeks of her expected period will be able to have abortions?

There are *so* many variables... women who occasionally have longer cycles may not even know they are pregnant until that time.

Ya, that brainwave article misses it, if it is what I think it is. It is more like 10-12 weeks. Muscle spasms aren't sentient brain waves.
