| Message | Opposed. |

| Message | We do not support this. If you do not want a child you should protect yourself during sex. If you dont protect yourself its your own fault. Also abortion in the 3rd trimester is just murder. |

| Message | We fully support this. |

| Message | May I ask why exactly? |
| Date | 21:19:16, April 12, 2022 CET | From | Baltusian Libertarian Party (BLP) | To | Debating the Woman's Choice Act |
| Message | As the BLP we'd like to know why the NGP supports an abortion in the 3rd trimester. In this stage of pregnancy, it is just murder anymore. Also the mother could've just abort the baby in the first/second trimester. |
| Date | 23:28:09, April 12, 2022 CET | From | Technocratic Party of Baltusia (TPB) | To | Debating the Woman's Choice Act |
| Message | We disagree, the entire pregnancy is a step too far for us |

| Message | The BPD needs to retract their first statement. Many women are forced to have children and some of them have the child get into the third trimester against their will. This bill is for them. |
| Date | 20:30:39, April 13, 2022 CET | From | New Green Party (NGP) | To | Debating the Woman's Choice Act |
| Message | We agree with the statement from the Feminist Party on this. While some people may consider abortion in the third trimester murder, there could be several reasons that they may cause someone to make this choice. The child may reach the third semester against their will, as brought up by the Feminist Party. Additionally, life situations may change and the mother may not be able to support the child, although adoption could be another option for this situation, however the option of adoption may not always be available to everybody. |
