Unfortunately for you and your moral compass the constitutional ban on abortion was lifted by popular vote. Move on. People die in hospitals every day in every country because of wrong decisions/wrong scan results/wrong diagnosis. It wasn't a surprise that the pro-life lunatics jumped on this. We have moved far and away from putting all of this in religious orders hands thank fúck. They had their own way of doing things that certainly wasnt morally right.

This is the main problem with people who aligned themselves with the repeal movement, a childish belief that all opinions divergent from their own being cast into some sort of abyss from where they should never be heard again. If the vote had gone the other way would the repeal movement have accepted it and never raised it again?

In fact the youngest born was only 13 weeks which is 2 weeks younger than the one here. Have you any kids? You dont need to answer as it is a personal question. But one that you can think about yourself. Have you been for a 9 week scan, 12 week scan, 15 week scan, 20 week scan and so on. If you have then you do see when they start to form. I have a scan from 15 weeks and while it us blurry you can actually see some detail of my son in it. Its crazy how he was defined so early on and looks the exact same. The reason i ask is because quiet often people talk about stuff they know absolutely nothing about and purely because its popular opinion. Yes forced. The couple. Not just the woman, were told that their child would likely die very early on if it were born. The option was to go through with pregnancy and leave their child suffer for what little life they had, or have an abortion. Yes that is forcing someones decision. They were given the wrong information and if the laws didnt change they would have not been given the option. A healthy baby would have lived.

STB. wrote: » You are grasping at straws because you are using words like dissent in democracy whilst not having the cop on to realise that this is the very reason the referendum was raised to change something that the vast majority disagreed with in the first instance. That dissent has resulted in two thirds of the country voting in favour of repealing the 8th. Respect the democratic decision please. Even after the democracy had spoken, there were stupid legal challenges, graspers like yourself.

In 2014, Lyla Stensrud, born in San Antonio, Texas, U.S. became the youngest premature baby in the world. She was born at 21 weeks 4 days and weighed 410 grams (less than a pound). Kaashif Ahmad resuscitated the baby after she was born. As of November 2018, Lyla was attending preschool. She had a slight delay in speech, but no other known medical issues or disabilities.[150] Amillia Taylor is also often cited as the most premature baby.[151] She was born on 24 October 2006 in Miami, Florida, U.S. at 21 weeks and 6 days' gestation.[152] This report has created some confusion as her gestation was measured from the date of conception (through in vitro fertilization) rather than the date of her mother's last menstrual period, making her appear 2 weeks younger than if gestation was calculated by the more common method.[135] At birth, she was 9 inches (22.9 cm) long and weighed 10 ounces (280 g).[151] She suffered digestive and respiratory problems, together with a brain hemorrhage. She was discharged from the Baptist Children's Hospital on 20 February 2007.

SusieBlue wrote: Link to the baby born alive at 13 weeks please? I believe the world record is held by a Canadian baby who was born at 21 weeks. I wouldn’t say there’s a ‘real’ chance babies born at 20 weeks can live when the world record for the most premature baby is 21 weeks.
