[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually I've become even more pro choice since becoming pregnant. It wasn't until I understood when testing could take place and how that corresponded with so-called "late term abortion" that I got it. You only potentially find out about things at 20 weeks, may need to get an amnio to confirm, and by then you're pushing the 23 week deadline. [/quote]

What is CVS for $20, Alex..

[i]CVS can be done early in pregnancy (earlier than amniocentesis), and results are usually obtained within 10 days. Getting this kind of information early allows a woman to make choices in the beginning stage of her pregnancy. If a woman chooses to terminate the pregnancy after receiving abnormal test results, the termination will be safer than if she waits until later for amniocentesis results.[/i]

What is "irrelevant" for $1000?, Alex.

Most women do not just have CVS routinely as it carries the risk of miscarriage. And not every condition arises early enough or is otherwise detected by that test. I am [i]so[/i] glad that you haven't had personal experience with some of the monstrously sad conditions that can only be spotted after 20 weeks. [/quote]

And in those cases, abortion is a consideration. Abortion as a form of birth control? No. And that's how it's being used today - as birth control.[/quote]

No, it's not. Abortion is expensive, difficult to obtain in most of the country, and is a surgery, albeit a simple one. No one sane is using it as birth control, and if they were, that's all the more reason to open more clinics so that we can get birth control to more women (and hopefully someday men). If you're going to make a fanciful claim like that, you have to cite it.[/quote]
