What are you doing hanging out at a site called "red state moron"? The gist of that article you referenced is that non-medical U/S carries a biopsychological risk and not necessarily to the pregnant mother. I like the response posted by the general surgeon that calls out the author on that premise. No, I'd rather see a study about the physical risks and not a pseudo-psychological argument likely hiding a fear that abortion rates will go down once routine access to U/S imaging is available.
I'll let folks read and judge for themselves, figuring that they'll have enough brains to trust but verify, not to mention consider the source. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while :)
FWIW, I'm not thrilled with the idea of repeated ultrasounds unless they're medically necessary. Which certainly isn't the case here.
