Along the same line of thought... should you have a funeral for a misscarriage that happens a few weeks after conception? Something like 50% of pregnancies will miscarry before the embryo has a chance to be attach to the womb. After that it drops to 30%, and after that misscarriage risk goes way down.

But anyways, if the baby is alive at conception as most pro-lifers agree, why not name the embryo and have a funeral for a miscarriage? If removing the embryo is murder, why not mourn it's natural death with a traditional funeral?

(this is just food for thought, I'm pro-life, don't flame me)

I hope not. I had multiple miscarriages, and I almost lost my 6 week old baby twins. The miscarriages were nothing compared to almost losing my baby girls.

Some women have miscarriages very early in their pregnancy. So early, in fact, that they don't even realize they were pregnant. I think miscarriages are relatively common and some women have several. What would you do about that? Have a funeral every other month? Sounds kinda morbid to me.
