You are 16 weeks pregnant. (fetal age 14 weeks)
Baby hears external voices, sleeps and dreams.The fetus measures nearly 5 inches (12cm) from head to buttocks.
The fetus weighs about 3.5 ounces (100 grams).
The fetus is covered with a protective soft down to regulate its temperature.
Fat begins to form underneath skin.
Your baby has learned to breathe. This is apparent from the regular movements of his chest, inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid. These actions help the lungs to develop and grow. More developed facial muscles may lead to various expressions, such as squinting and frowning. Your baby nows weighs more than their afterbirth. The baby can grasp with his hands, kick, or even somersault.

Tiny baby girls are less oppressed in Arkansas, though.

It’s not just abortions they’re restricting in Arkansas. The powers that be also want to cutoff funding to Planned Parenthood that provides a multitude of services for women including cancer screening & prenatal care. The Republicans have become the American Taliban with these extreme measures.

I never realized Arkansas was such a backward state, I’ve been looking at property down there to retire, a lot of dry counties also, maybe I will look at some other states to retire.

If you have a working heart…are you alive? YOU had a heat beat at 30 days old…while you were still in your mothers womb. Only a wack job could think murder is OK.

I just read Arkansas S.B. 134 and it seems it is more targeted at doctors than women. It defines the conditions under which a doctor can perform an abortion and the penalties involved if they violate those conditions.
♦
As for its effect on women, from S.B. 134:
♦
20-16-1306. Interpretation.
This subchapter does not:
(1) Subject a pregnant female on whom an abortion is performed or attempted to be performed to any criminal prosecution or civil penalty; or
(2) Prohibit the sale, use, prescription, or administration of a measure, drug, or chemical designed for contraceptive purposes.
♦
With doctor/patient confidentiality fully established by Roe v Wade, unless the patient tells law enforcement of the abortion, I don’t see this law as much more than a sop to the anti-abortion people. It prohibits any penalty on the woman for having an abortion.
♦
This cartoon strikes me as more than slightly deceitful.

Would you liberals/progressives PLEASE make up your mind! You want women to have the “right” to murder but demand that I surrender my ability to protect my family with a gun?
