Abortion… July 17, 2011

abortion

Did you know, that there are about 3,700 abortions per day? Shocking fact, huh?

Teenagers and young adults make up most of the percentage of women who get abortions. Why? Because they think that having their child will completely ruin their life. Will it? Probably not. There’s this little thing I’d like to call… Adoption.

Women (teens especially) think that if they just get an abortion, that they can get rid of the “problem” and never have to worry about it ever again. -False, women who have an abortion usually experience PAS (Post Abortion Stress Syndrome). There are also a lot of complications associated with abortion:

  • Bladder issues
  • Bowel issues
  • Breast Cancer
  • Ectopic Pregnancies
  • Failed abortion
  • Hemorrhage
  • Hepatitis
  • Infection
  • Laceration of the Cervix
  • Increased chance of miscarriages later
  • Perforation of Uterus
  • Placenta Previa
  • Retained products of conception
  • RH Incompatibility
  • Severe, Rapid Bleeding
  • Sterility

If those aren’t enough scary post-abortion effects, then I don’t know what would be. There are about 5,000-10,000 women that die each year from abortions. You may be wondering, what from? Well, women that die from abortion usually die from infection, hemorrhage, and uterine perforation. Scary, right?

Like I previously stated, there is another alternative to abortion, adoption. If you are deciding on whether or not to have an abortion, think about a family out there in the world that wants a baby so bad, and they can’t have on of their own. Now, wouldn’t they love to have your baby? Chances are, yes.

Ladies out there that are pregnant and considering abortion, please rethink what you’re doing. Don’t be selfish and get rid of this baby because you don’t want YOUR life ruined, think of the baby first. If you have a husband/boyfriend or whatever you may call him, pressuring you about having an abortion tell him what YOU want and don’t be afraid. If he doesn’t support your decision, then he’s not that great anyway. Let him know that you CAN put your baby up for adoption for some other have to have and love, you HAVE options and abortion isn’t one of them.

Some people refuse to accept this statement but, life starts at the moment of conception. Aborting a child is murder, no matter what. The definition of an abortion is “the termination of a human fetus” thus, killing a human being. Is this any different than murdering any other human being? No, it’s not. If you’re bored reading so far, don’t stop! Because below I have video of abortions that is very graphic that you may just want to watch!

In my opinion, there are only 2 reasons why someone should EVER get an abortion. Those two reasons are:

  1. The developing baby has a birth defect or a genetic problem that would cause a lot of issues in the future.
  2. The pregnancy is harmful to the mother’s health.

ONLY reasons why anyone should EVER get an abortion. Women can get an abortion up to about 6-7 months (23-31 weeks), which is ridiculous. When a baby is developing in this stage they are about 2-3 pounds, they have a strong grip, they can open and close their eyes, they have developed eyelashes and eyebrows, and they can hiccup and swallow. At this point, if the baby would have to be born early (premature), they would probably be able to survive with intensive care. WHAT!? They could SURVIVE!? Yes, and to think that you could KILL a baby at this point? Disgusting.

Below, I have a link of a video that shows abortions and it is VERY GRAPHIC! When I first watched this, my stomach was churning and I was in tears. It saddens me to think how anyone could ever do this to their child. What if that child actually was born? You never know what their future was going to hold. They could be the next president of the US. Who knows? Watchign this video may just change your whole perspective of abortion.

Thanks so much for reading and I hope you all liked! – Please let me know what you think on the “What You Think” section of my blog! (:
