Quote:Why does a 7 week tubal pregnancy with a visible heartbeat carry less rights than a 4 week (normal) pregnancy with visible a gestational sac but no visible fetal pole? 

 

Shouldn't the choice of life be up to each individual?

 

I yield to your knowledge, but doesn't a 7 week tubal have zero chance of survival? In that case, where there is no chance for the pregnancy to go to term and the woman could potentially die then the lesser evil is to terminate the pregnancy.

 

Edit: Please remember that I'm primarily speaking from the place of abortion as contraception, not medical necessity. I know that it's often that there is no other option for the health of the mother or any chance to bring the pregnancy to term.
