Exactly.

My thoughts exactly. I'm pro choise, but I think the mother is able to make the choise in time. If you don't want the baby, you can get rid of it, but if you don't want the baby, you know that you don't want it and you could at least do the decision in time.

I don't know if you meant me here, but I sure think that a nine months old embryo is a baby. That's the only time when I talked about babies. And that was when MudokonOddball said this: "Actually, a baby is not legally born until their head emerges from the womb - that's why these types of abortions are used so often. "
