I believe in the inherent value of all human life: born and unborn, gay and straight, cis and trans, all races, all religions and no religion, etc. Our laws should reflect that.

@HannahPosted The advice I always give: when the baby wakes up crying in the middle of the night, always go to the bathroom first before going to pick her up. Your ability to hold it in those first few days is not what it used to be.

I had a miscarriage. I have avoided mentioning it while I’ve been going through it, but now it’s over. We found out on May 30 at the 8 week appt that our baby was not viable. Baby measured 2 weeks small and heartbeat was only 85bpm.

@RockChartrand @secularprolife Majority of later abortions are not for maternal health or fatal fetal anomalies. The fetus is purposely killed by lethal injection or cutting the cord so it bleeds to death, and then labor is induced to deliver a dead baby.

If abortion is defined as simply “removing the products of conception,” then a c-section at term of a live child is an abortion, and a D&C to remove retained placenta after a live birth is an abortion. A definition so broad is meaningless.
