do you honestly think banned intact D&X procedures will benefit women?

this procedure is needed for some women. some feoti suffer from extreme hydrocephalus(always fatal), meaning their head is 3 times larger than normal and cannot go through the birth canal unless the skull is collapsed. also, some women cannot tolerate birth or a D&E. many women want an intact fetus for funerals and to hold. it's not like the procedure is done on healthy or conscious feoti. why do you lifers THINK banning this procedure is such a victory, when in reality it is just the opposite?

im actually not giving out false info. the ban does not cover HEALTH of the woman. only LIFE so a woman can't have the procedure unless she's about to die. as for a C-section. um that's an evasive surgery. why should a woman have to go through that for a fetus that's not going to live?

and actually the procedure is needed for feoti with fatal hydrocephalus. must you people be ignorant?

and intact D&X is safer for the woman. she is less likely to get an infection and is less likely to suffer damage to her womb, which could render her unable to carry any future pregnancies.

You are wrong, the ban has the exception of if the mothers health or life is in danger. Quit putting out wrong info. Also, they do have something called a ceserian if the head is too big for the mother. If the mother goes to the doc in the first place they can tell if the baby has some sort of mutation and they should get an abortion then and there if they chose to. The ban is just for the procedure to be done in any circumstances other than for the health and safety of the mother.

It's actually quite simple. It opens doors for the ending of this abominable practice known as abortion.

BS... the procedure is *NEVER* necessary. Even the AMA agrees with that statement.
