Better a baby with a full head of hair than a baby with a full back of hair?

The other thing I admit to sort of disliking was Ellen’s huge hug jar (and I adore Ellen). It made Daddy’s Kiss Jar shrink by comparison; as though it were less important or glamorous. A little thing but still.....

Women are afraid they’ll meet a serial killer.

I am a prenatal genetic counselor, and I typically discuss the other reasons why someone might want to know they were going to have a baby with a chromosome condition other than termination. There are medical reasons as well as psychological ones. If you were to have a baby with a chromosome condition, I would want…

The conversation, as it stands right now, is that CHILDREN ARE FUCKING DYING OF EASILY PREVENTABLE DISEASES AND VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM YOU FUCKING IGNORANT FLAMING COCKGERBIL

This occurred blocks from my house, and is blocks away from where the San Bernardino shootings occurred last year. She was also sent to my hospital (which is all I’m going to say about that).

Amen to this. I’ve moved around a lot, and even though I don’t generally support (in a moral sense, I firmly believe abortion should just be a medical decision without any special laws) aborting a fetus for non-fatal disability like Down’s syndrome...I’ve lived in some areas where, if I were to get pregnant and find…

YES. It’s just another technique for shaming women. That is literally its only purpose. I mean, real human bodies are used for medical research. Parents can donate the body of a minor child who has passed. There is NO REASON to mandate that the same can’t be done with a glob of cells, even if you think it’s a human…

BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T VOTE IN THEIR LOCAL AND STATE ELECTIONS. Sorry to yell, but it is so frustrating. People come out to vote for the president, but in spite of being the most powerful position on the planet, the President does not control everything. Local and state politics matter just as much, sometimes more. Two…

Maybe this isn’t popular to say, but if I found out my fetus had Down’s I wouldn’t hesitate to abort. Sure, a lot of DS kids go on to live perfectly rich and happy lives. Many don’t.

Too bad Hollywood and sports team won’t boycott this state for women.

It may be controversial for people to have abortions based on whether or not their fetus has Down’s syndrome, but it should be more than just controversial to force anyone to bear a child they don’t feel they are able to care for, regardless of the potential child’s disability or lack of one. Forcing anyone to bear a…

This just grinds my gears. I have spina bifida, which obviously is not as bad as some of the birth defects that a baby can have. But I have gone through surgery after surgery, suffered through humiliating and painful procedures, and continually struggle to afford my medications and medical supplies. Every time I try…

This pissed me off so hard. It’s not pro-life, it’s pro-fetus. People with Down’s have so many associated health issues - heart defects, leukemia, higher susceptibility to infectious disease - and you better damn well believe that the state will not support the family that has needs for all that expensive medical…

Fetuses get more anti-discriminatory protections than fully grown adult LGBT persons in Indiana and North Carolina.

The bill bans women from seeking abortions based on race, gender or disability of the fetus

The fact that one of them is dead-eyed Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson is FAR AND AWAY my favorite part of the rumor. Like, do you think Trump knows? Knew when he hired her? Is asking her about it RIGHT NOW? Will someone ask her about it when she does a hit on CNN? Did she wear the bullet necklace the whole time?…

I thought all abortions were based on the same thing. A woman’s right to have one.
