MessageNo, although I agree that women should have the right to choose whether to continue with a pregnancy by the second trimester the 'child' is no longer a simple zygote but a living being that can survive, with aid, if birthed at that point; as such I cannot vote in favour of this bill. If the bill stated that abortion was only allowed in the first trimester then I could agree with this, however since it includes the second trimester I cannot vote in favour.

MessageActually fetuses can't survive outside of the womb until they have passed the limit of viablity which is currently estimated to be at around 24 weeks after conception. That point was what I was referring to when I was mentioning abortions during the second trimester, that point should have been clearer.

MessageAnd 24 weeks is during the second trimester thus my point still stands.

MessageBut that is the later part of the trimester, during the first half of the second trimester fetus is not capable of surviving outside of the mother's womb.

MessageAn astronaut isn't capable of surviving outside of his space suit, does that mean his captain has a right to choose if he wants to eject him into space?
