This is in relation to something that
annoyed me off of the pro-life forum.
In the hopes of keeping hte peace and
repecting their privacy, I have posted my
opinion (and the facts to support it) over
here. I'm also going to post this in
the pro-choice forum, I like it so much.
Alright... There are other conditions
besides ectopic pregnancies that are life
threatening! The pro-life post I
believe said something along the lines of
ectopic being the only one, or there being
no other reason to ever abort except for
in the case of an ectopic.
So, here is information regarding other
life-threatening situations for pregnant
mothers.
Conditions that can kill during pregnancy:
--pre-eclampsia
--eclampsia
--hemorrhage
--ectopic pregnancy
--pregnancy-induced hypertension
--embolism
--infection
"girls aged 15-19 are twice as likely to
die from childbirth
as women in their twenties; those under
age 15 are five times as likely to die."
and now, some links. You will have to
fix the capitalization once you click on
them. E-health hates links ;)
self defense and abortion: this
is from a religious site but it manages to
be very objective.
the effects of pregnancy: this one
is sure to make pro-life mad, but it has
so much good information that I suggest it
to everyone. Apparently the link
doesn't work that way, so here's the
actual address for your de-capitalization
and reading pleasure:
http://www.Gate.Net/~liz/li
z/004.Htm
you're going to have to copy that one into
notepad or something, because earthlink
automatically redirects to a 404 page, and
doesn't retain the original address in the
address bar. But this site is really
good, so it's worth the effort!
maternal mortality in new york
city: this is a pdf file. You don't
even hve to read it, just look at the
tables. I suggest table two. It's
labled. Again, e-health is being
irritating. Here's the link:

you'll probably have to paste that one
into notepad too, to get the
capitalozation right before entering it in
your seach bar.
I hate auto-capitalize!
