and show images of fetuses of later gestational ages which they try to say are only 5 or 6 weeks. I had both an ectopic and miscarriage at that stage. That miscarriage, which I wasn't even sure of until a doctor visit, looked like nothing more than a very heavy period. Why would an abortion at that same gestational age look any different?

I saw the sonogram of my ectopic (rupture). The christian hospital did not believe my doctor that is was ectopic and didn't want to even give me a sonogram. "We will give you something to stop the bleeding". When they did (24 hours later) the sonogram, they didn't want me to see it. I got up and DEMANDED they show it to me. Why? Because I had heard so much crap from them, that I wanted to see for myself. No, it looked nothing at all like those pictures they show of perfectly formed, large, later development fetuses. Actually, it was pretty gross looking.

No, I am not surprised at the pictures in this post at all.

Edit: I love it that she used her cell phone to take a pix! Dispel all their propaganda.
