• Day 1 – fertilization: all human chromosomes are present; unique human life begins

• Day 6 – embryo begins implanting in the uterus

• Day 22 – heart begins to beat with the child’s own blood, often a different type than the mother’s

• Week 5 – eyes, legs, hands begin to develop

• Week 6 – brain waves detectable; mouth, lips present; fingernails forming

• Week 7 – eyelids, toes form; nose distinct, baby kicking and swimming

• Week 8 – every organ in place; bones begin to replace cartilage, fingerprints begin to form;

• Weeks 9 and 10 - teeth begin to form, fingernails develop; baby can turn head, frown

• Week 11 – baby can grasp objects placed in hand; all organ systems functioning; the baby has fingerprints, a skeletal structure, nerves, and circulation

• Week 12 – the baby has all of the part necessary to experience pain, including the nerves, spinal cord and thalamus; the baby is nearing the end of the first trimester

• Week 17 - baby can have dream (REM) sleep

• Week 20 – the earliest stage at which partial birth abortions are performed.

Below is the procedure for the Partial-Birth Abortion:
Some may think that we are being too graphic, but sometimes the truth is hard to take.
Editor: Timothy Youngblood

Abortionists sometimes refer to these or similar types of abortions using obscure, clinical-sounding euphemisms such as "Dilation and Extraction" (D&X), or "intact D&E" (IDE) which mask the realities of how the abortions are actually performed. This procedure is used to abort women who are 20 to 32 weeks pregnant -- or even later into pregnancy.

Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist reaches into the uterus, grabs the unborn baby’s leg with forceps, and pulls the baby into the birth canal, except for the head, which is deliberately kept just inside the womb. (At this point in a partial-birth abortion, the baby is alive.) Then the abortionist jams scissors into the back of the baby’s skull and spreads the tips of the scissors apart to enlarge the wound. After removing the scissors, a suction catheter is inserted into the skull and the baby’s brains are sucked out. The collapsed head is then removed from the uterus.

Total Abortions since 1973

Downward Trend Continues

After reaching a high of over 1.6 million in 1990, the number of abortions performed annually in the U.S. has dropped to levels not seen since the late 1970s.

Two independent sources confirm this decline: The government’s Centers for Disease Control (CDC and the Alan Guttmacher institute (AGI), Planned Parenthood’s special research affiliate monitoring trends in the abortion industry.

The CDC develop its annual report on the basis of data it receives from 52 central health agencies (50 states plus the District of Columbia and New York City.) AGI gets its numbers from direct surveys of abortion providers.

Because of these different methods of data collection, AGI consistently obtains higher numbers of abortions that the CDC. CDC researchers have admitted it probably undercounts the total number of abortions because reporting laws vary from state to state, and some abortion providers probably do not report or under report the numbers of abortions they perform. Nevertheless, because increases and decreases in CDC and AGI numbers have always roughly tracked each other, both sources are thought to provide useful information on abortion trends and statistics.

According to the CDC’s annual abortion report appearing in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Surveillance Summary of Dec. 8, 2000, the number of abortions performed in the U.S. in 1997 was 1,186,039, a drop of three % from the previous year and the lowest number of annual abortions reported by the CDC since 1978. Overall, the 1997 numbers are nearly 17% below the 1990 numbers.

The latest AGI figures confirm this downward trend. AGI reported 1,312,990 abortions for 2000, a drop of just over 18% from the 1990 high of 1,608,600.

Using AGI figures through 2000 and estimating 1,312,990 for 2001 - 2003, and factoring in a possible 3% undercount AGI estimates for its own figures, the total number of abortions performed in the U.S. from 1973-2003 equals 44,670,812.
