A baby in the womb....can you cut this up and suck it out?
A human embryo at 7 weeks gestation, measuring approximately 14 mm (crown to rump). The upper limbs, fingers, and face are developing and growing rapidly but are still forming their shape. The eye is developing but is not functioning yet. The brain is developing rapidly and the blood vessels supplying it with blood are clearly visible.
Hand of a fetus at 15 weeks gestation. At this stage the fetus measures approximately 92 mm (crown to rump), the fetal face and limbs are well formed, the eyes are sealed shut but are sensitive to light, the fetus can hear and responds to some sounds with movement, and fingernails and fingerprints have developed. The fetal bones have been stained with a dye which only stains the calcified regions.
Human fetus at 16 weeks gestation, measuring approximately 110 mm (crown to rump). At this stage, the fetal face and limbs are well formed, fingernails can be seen on the hands, and fingerprints have developed on the skin. The eyes are sealed shut but are sensitive to light, and the fetus can hear and respond to some sounds with movement. The fetal bones have been stained with a dye which only stains the calcified regions.The new ultrasounds have given scientists and doctors a new perspective on life inside the womb:
12 weeks
24 weeks
26 weeks
Too many people who think abortion is okay will try to tell themselves it's humane and it's not a child. Anyone who thinks that should look at THIS video...all the way through..... if you can.
It's from the 80s and it is powerful- imagine what they could do now with the newer technology? Even then, people who saw this video had a change of heart. Don't take a blind eye.....watch it.

Not that I needed to be convinced, but this reminds of when I attended the Bodyworlds exhibit in that Franklin Institute a while back. As controversial as the whole thing was - there was a rather large room full of plastinated babies arranged in sequence starting at barely visible all the way up to 2 years old. None of them were aborted by the way - that had somehow passed on before being born.
I'm talking about 100 examples here or real preserved zygotes, embryos, fetuses, and infants.
It was incredible that you could rarely see a difference between 2 of them right next to eachother, but if you look 4 or 5 apart, the growth was remarkable. It really made me wonder - how does anyone choose where to draw the line? I really don't see how anyone could have seen what I saw there and continue to believe that the lives that look just like that are NOT worth protecting. I have no idea what Gunther von Hagens believes, but the setup almost seemed deliberate to me.
