WHOA!

SMILING FROM THE WOMB
 
Pioneering scanning techniques have produced astonishing images from inside the womb which show babies apparently smiling and crying.

Experts believe the breakthrough could lead to advances in baby health for a whole range of conditions, including Down's Syndrome.


The pictures offer a new insight into foetal behaviour.

The ultra-sound scanning techniques capture images which show the foetuses yawn, blink, suck their fingers and seem to cry and smile.

Up to now, doctors did not think infants made such expressions until after birth and believed they learned to smile by copying their mother.

The procedure has been pioneered by London obstetrician Professor Stuart Campbell at the Create Health Centre for Reproduction and Advanced Technology.

His pictures reveal foetuses moving their limbs at just eight weeks.

The new techniques, known as 3D and 4D scanning, allow for far more detailed examination of the foetus.

"There are many questions that can now be investigated," said Prof Campbell.

"Do babies with genetic problems such as Downs Syndrome have the same pattern of activity as normal babies?

"Does the foetus smile because it is happy, or cry because it has been disturbed by some event in the womb?

"Why does a foetus blink when we assume it's dark inside the uterus?"

They do but abortions are carried out at a much earlier stage then where the baby is able to smile and cry.Or at least I think they are.

Unfortunately this isn't available on the NHS at the moment (theres no reason for it to be though) but hopefully it will in the future when it becomes cheaper, as i would rather see one of those than a blue mess.

Abortions are carried out all the way until about the 8th month...
the doctor will pull the fetus out and stick a straw into the back of the head(the softest part) and suck the babies brains out...
I know it sounds like a Brother Lynch song but its not, its reality..
FYI. most Republicans are not against abortion, they are Partial birth abortions like these...

sometimes abortions are necessary ,if the girl can't hold the child and she'll die if she trys to give birth, or if she's been raped or sumthin and got pregnant.

That's true, what you said... but... (lol, you knew that was coming)... the whole "The girl can't carry the baby" "The baby will kill her" thing is entirely hyped up by Pro-Choice groups!  In cases where the woman dies in childbirth, almost every time, the problem was unforseeable.  It's not like most women are going to die during childbirth, it rarely ever happens anymore.  Far more common is the baby dies during childbirth, or is stillborn.  We're talking a fraction of 1 percent of pregnancies, where a woman is forseeably in danger of losing her life.  In other words, for medical reasons, there is hardly EVER any evidence beforehand that the woman's life will be in danger during childbirth.  This leads on to show that women should hardly ever have to have an abortion to save their life.  It just doesn't happen, and MOST women would take the chance of losing their life to have a child! So that lowers the percentage of instances when a woman would choose to have an abortion for medical reasons.

Also, there is only 1 state in america that keeps records on abortions.  the doctors fill out a little card for each abortion they perform, and in the last year data is available for, out of thousands of abortions, not one was done for medical reasons (per the doctor).  

Simply, people get abortions, because they don't want a baby.  So they kill it.  They don't poison it, becuase that would hurt them, too, so they attack it with a fucking knife, and vacuum it's brain out of the back of it's head.  Lets call this how it is.
