      you're right, it shouldn't but because it's the same procedure doctors are worried that they will not be believed that the baby is already dead or that they will be accused of claiming a baby is dead that is alive, so even in states that have an exception to the ban, they don't want to use the exception. The only way to protect against this is to not have bans at all.

    I had a tubal pregnancy back in 1992 (I'm 56 now). It required emergency surgery which I would not have been able to have. Nine years later, I went on to have a healthy pregnancy because my reproductive organs were preserved and my rights were honored. Every woman deserves this.

      Yes, it is on its own. Now add in ignorant and malevolent legislators with an agenda of control, then it becomes a widespread health liability. If you're a Black woman, the chances of pregnancy and childbirth being even more of a high maternal morbidity or mortality risk than usual is genuinely frightening.

      It's not a matter of religion. It's a matter of morals. Is it truly moral to allow people to force a human being into existence to then just kill that human being due to irresponsible actions? Over 400,000 dead babies a year is way too many. All due to irresponsible actions of the parents. That's not fair, and I fail to see how it should be morally acceptable. No one should lose the right to live unless their existence is life-threatening to others. That should be the only reason. And no one should have the right to act as a God, to create and destroy life as they please.

      @@youtubecommentator6023 It's still a matter of religion, it is only religion (or rather a politics of control pushing through religion) that makes you equate a fetus to full human being. Biologically these are not babies yet. They could certainly become babies, and the expectation can mean the world to people, but they aren't babies yet. Now you can argue that potential worth is worth too, but then you'd have to deal with the same collective responsibility for the potential of actual born human beings as you seem to think is warranted here. But that idea is decidedly unpopular.
      In effect, the whole moral outrage of "400.000" dead babies is based on a false premise. This fabricated outrage is used to fuel pushing changes in law that serve no goals of morality, but only those of control and power. We know it only increases suffering.

    I didn't know I was pregnant until pain and cramping drove me into the shower for heat therapy. In the shower, I miscarried. I had to remove the fetus from the drain, preserve the tissue, and go to a hospital alone. The ER doctor told me I needed a D&C to ensure I wouldn't get sepsis. I recovered at home and went on to have a healthy baby boy.

      4) Someone has convinced you to thoroughly intertwine your identity with whatever media bubble you are currently parroting the language of, effectively getting you to donate your labor that you could be getting paid for to graduate to option (3), but failing to realize that it's a scam and so will continue to be broke.

The stores had already decided that pharmacies would not sell them because law was going to take affect at 12:01. It was a nightmare, but I got the medicine. Thank God a year later she had a healthy baby girl, had this happen to her now I would have to drive her across state lines and I’ve already made contact with Planned Parenthood to assist us with us in the future. I also have another family member that is high-risk we have already made plans with Planned Parenthood should something God forbid happen. We have to leave the state, this is unbelievable.

    My wife would have died 4 separate times from unviable pregnancies that were treated with D and Cs. One ectopic pregnancy, one partial miscarriage, one “chemical pregnancy” and one stillbirth that we didn’t even know that we were pregnant for because it was originally twins and when one miscarried it looked like a period. Our stillbirth came after the safe period and would have required a burial a couple of weeks further along. Sepsis is a ridiculously dangerous thing and my wife had it twice after our pregnancy chances went away and died at 50 in her sleep as even though she survived the infection, the damage wrecked the rest of her health .

    My first pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage. I went in expecting to hear the fetal heartbeat, and instead was told the fetus had died. This was 43 years ago, so I was at 16 weeks. I was scheduled for a D&C, and everything went smoothly. I had a healthy baby girl several years later. If this had happened right now, it would have been a banned procedure in many states - never mind that the baby was DEAD - and I shudder to think how badly it could have gone.

    The year I turned forty, one of my periods was weird. It did the full week of what I consider usual. Afterwards I was still lightly bleeding. I kept lightly bleeding for a few more weeks (it was light enough it would have been considered spotting.) I went to a woman’s clinic to find out I was spotting and it was due to my ovaries having less than one millimeter sized cysts on them. (10 on the left 3 on the right.) I talked to the clinic and decided to go the route of tubal ligation so that I didn’t have to add the worry about becoming pregnant. I had my two kids, so all was good. The clinic helped me get the appointments set up. They had to let me know I had to wait (according to the law) for one month before making an appointment for the tubal ligation. Didn’t stop them from helping with everything else, which I appreciate to this day. The doctor tried so hard to get the new tubal ligation procedure, called Essure. Go look that nightmare up. I stuck to my guns and went with the proper tubal ligation. I made sure everything was signed up by him and myself into agreement for the proper procedure. On the day of the surgery, I showed up at the hospital, with paperwork and signed documents in hand. After having such a hard time getting a ride to the hospital (five tries and the fifth one got me my ride. I was having people cancel very last minute on me.) I was not going to take chances. As I waited, the nurses came in and checked me out for the procedure and we started going through the explanation of what I was to go through. Only they were talking about a procedure I was not familiar with. I asked them what procedure were they talking about because I didn’t recall signing up for what they were describing. They asked to see my paperwork and I showed them, making sure that paperwork didn’t disappear. They looked it over, looked over the paperwork they had been looking at, and asked which procedure did I fully sign for, and I showed them my signature on the paperwork I came with. They looked at it and then told me that I was signed, by the doctor to get the Essure procedure. I explained that I signed for the tubal ligation and understood and wanted the tubal ligation. They understood, and told me they have my back and I will get the procedure I signed for. Those nurses had my back the entire time. That doctor I never saw again. I believe he got into trouble. I went to the clinic for my check ups afterwards. They declared me good. I am happy I got help from all of those ladies the whole time. What sucks was the fact years before I had a great male gynecologist, who retired five years before I turned forty.

    Who do you want to make your healthcare and reproductive decisions? You expect to do so yourself, right? Well, so does everyone else. A big problem with the anti choice view is thinking that preventing others from making their own decisions doesn't mean that you wont be able to make your own decisions. Pro choice protects the right to decide for ourselves for all of us.

Imagine trying to have a baby and it not working out and for it to be life threatening and they essentially blame you for being a victim of circumstance. They’re not pro-life.

    I had 2 miscarriages (pretty sure it was my thyroids fault since once I got that under control I went on to have 2 healthy babies). The first one was bad! I had no idea I was pregnant and started bleeding heavily with huge clots. My OBGYN suggested a DNC. I wanted to try and pass it naturally as I’m not a big fan of medical procedures. She agreed we could give it a try and wrote me a script for mifepristone. It was painful but it worked. I’m so thankful I was able to get the care I needed and have a say in it (obviously I would have gotten a DNC if the drug didn’t clear everything out).

    [Apologies for the length!!!]
    Over the course of 10 + years in my long ago youth, I got pregnant 3 different times, each while using contraception correctly. I also had two miscarriages in the same time frame, again despite using contraception. Each of these five pregnancies was traumatic in its own way.
    At the end of those years, my now husband and I conceived our wonderful, talented son, who is now 34. We would *never* have had him if we had continued any of the other pregnancies.
    Of course I think about those other fetuses and who they might have become. Of course I grieved them, and sometimes I still do. But I remind myself that I could not have given them what they needed and deserved, and my choices made my current adult son’s life possible.
