AbortionNewest Review: ... and Embryology' Act reduced the viability status of a foetus from 28 to 24 weeks. Abortion is legal today with the consent of two doctors who professionally cite a risk to physical or mental health. This is not the case in Northern Ireland. In terms of mental capacity there are numerous times when a woman may become pregnant but be impeded in her ability to care for a baby due to learning ... more |

Quite how one would go about addressing the 'issue' of abortion is beyond me but I still feel that it is a topic that everyone should be able to comment on due to its divisive nature in modern society. There are numerous obstacles to overcome when trying to settle the issue notably medical direction, mental capacity, religious belief and pregnancy through unlawful assault. I believe there is no way to truly legally clarify at what stage of embryonic development a cell bundle becomes life. Absolutely, by its very definition the first interaction between the sperm and the egg is the start of biological life but at what point does the potential baby have a legal right ...

Well there is no doubt that this a very controversial subject, and a subject I feel able to give a valid contribution to. I am not asking for anyone's acceptance about what I am going to say, I just want to share with you the decision that I made. I am currently 35 year old mother of an 8 year old daughter. When I was in my teens and leading quite a wild time, contraceptive was at times an after thought, I am afraid to say. At 17 I was in a relationship with a jack-the-lad and it led to me soon finding out I was pregnant. I went to the family planning clinic, gave a false name and I had the expected news told to me that I was pregnant. ... Read the complete review

I think everyone has their own views on this subject and I am in no way trying to upset anyone with what my views are, they are just that.... my views. I myself would never even consider a termination unless there was a problem which would result in the baby suffering and dying anyway. To anyone who has had one I can't say I understand why you have done it but it's your personal choice and none of my business. What upsets me about abortions is that some young girls see this as a birth controll method and will have abortion after abortion after abortion. I find this so saddening, as there are people out there who are desperatly trying for a baby ... Read the complete review

I had a first trimester abortion 1 week ago, it was a surgical abortion, vacuum aspiration, I was 11.5 weeks along, I was given 2 pills that I had to keep in the sides of my mouth for 1 hour, this was used to dilate my cervix due to the age of the fetus, after that hour they took me back, the doctor numbed my cervix with 2 injections in each side of the cervix, this was by far the worst pain I've felt since child birth, but that only lasts about 20 seconds, and the worst is over, after that he used 3 different sized rods to also help dilate my cervix, then he inserted the vacuum hose, which was about the width of a straw, but much longer, turned it on, and it was over in ...

My mind on abortions is I dont agree with them, but I do beleive that every human being should have the choice to weather they can or cant have one. They whole abortion thing is based on each individuals situation at the time of falling pregnant weather it be financially, what sort of relationship they are in, career wise, weather they have some where suitable to bring the child up regarding housing. Some people do not have a big supportive family to help them out when things are tough. I know for sure that i would not like to bring a child into the worlld if i had no where to live and no money to support the child untill they turn 18 years of ... Read the complete review
