[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took misoprostol for retained placenta, after delivering a healthy baby. Since the placenta is products of conception, it was technically an abortion.

Third trimester abortions are quite risky, difficult to obtain and very costly. People aren’t looking up at 29 weeks and deciding to get an abortion. I don’t think doctors would do it for that reason because the benefits wouldn’t outweigh the risks. Most maternal health complications at that point would be solved by delivering the baby. [/quote]

Thx, and sorry you had to go through that complication.  Sounds rough.

I checked out the Wiki on 3rd trim terminations; I don’t think there is any factual dispute they are rare.

I would like to believe 100% of them are for the correct reasons: severe malformations and serious medical risk to the mother.  I am just trying to confirm what I would like to believe.

It’s really amazing how much hostility I’ve received here in this thread,  even though I have been very up front about being pro choice.  [/quote]
