Have You Killed Your Baby ?

Thousands years ago, males and females were looking for ways to get rid of their unwanted children in that period of time while the fetus still in the womb, and since thousands years there have been some good people who were thinking it is a huge mistake to kill your child who didn't come to the life yet. 
Maybe some will think that only religious people didn't agree with it, but it wasn't only religious people. There was a physician living  in Greece, his name is Hippocrates, a person who didn't live in a religious period. He condemned this immoral practice, because this unborn child is still a child who deserves life and shouldn't be killed.
Killing of unborn babies became known in countries calling themselves developed countries, thousands of unborn children being killed under the name that a mother should have the right to decide.
Killing of unborn babies became known in countries calling themselves developed countries, thousands of unborn children being killed under the name that a female has right to choose! 
A female has the right to choose not to have a children but how many unborn children should be killed to satisfy her choice ? Many ways were made to make the female avoid pregnancy.
When a female thinks that she has lost her right to choose is when she gets pregnant, because then she will not be dealing with a semen and egg, actually she will be dealing with a life. If she aborted her pregnancy, she will be a murder and even if the law may do nothing to her now, one day she will stand in front of the God and have to explain to Him why she killed an innocent soul.
Since the abortion became legal, statistics show that there are more than 25 million babies who have been murdered only in America , and also more than 1.5 billion abortions performed around the world 1970. The funny sad thing is that those who agree with abortion, have no idea what they agree with ! 
The most used way to abort a pregnancy is vacuum aspiration, this way is used in the first 3 months of the baby's growth. Vacuum aspiration uses a pipe connected to a vacuum machine, they put the pipe inside the pregnant's womb and the vacuum aspiration power rips the fetus's parts and starts to suck them out .
Another way used in the first three months of the pregnancy, in this way they use a knife to cut the connected parts of the fetus to the pregnant, the fetus being cut into parts and the head being smashed so they can move him out through the opening of the womb.
There's also another way being used in three and five months of the pregnancy, two tongs are inserted to the womb and the baby's body being ripped, and then they take the parts out through the birth canal, they collect the parts together to make sure that nothing's left inside .
Another way like a slow death, this way cause a slowly painful death because of the bleeding, shock and burning of the baby's body cells. They inject a salt solution into the amniotic bag, this solution is breathed by the baby and leads to end his life !
There are two more ways of abortion performed after the sixth month of the pregnancy . The first way is when the baby comes to the world through a surgery, he is taken out from the womb and they put him by himself to die alone because of the disregard. The other is when the child is born without a surgery, and when the head's time to come out they make an opening in his head then they use a vacuum aspiration machine to remove his brain!
How come that people support things like this ! Seriously I don't know if there's a female who would do something like this to someone from her flesh and her blood! 
Abortion is a crime according to the law of God, and as long as it is a crime and huge sin, the law of God puts a solution to this. if you are a female who performed an abortion before, probably you didn't know the affects of what you have chosen to perform, God wants you to know that whatever you did, He will forgive and free you. Jesus Christ The Son of God, he will give you complete forgiveness, ask Him you will not regret so. God is the only one who can help you with this .
Females who performed abortion many times, and many women did, they feel deeply pain inside their hearts. No matter how many times you have had an abortion, you know now it is a crime and killing for an innocent souls, stop and ask God to help you and forgive you,and surely He will!
If you are thinking about abortion as a solution to the unwanted child, don't do it ! there're a lot of people who want to adopt a child, so instead of killing an innocent soul you can give the baby to them to adopt it, and instead of having psychological pain you will be helping others who can't have a baby because of many reasons such as impotence .
Stop killing innocent souls ! you can give them to those who can't have a child ! for God sake and for your own heart sake , don't kill your baby !

Adoption Vs Abortion Vs Parenting

Getting pregnant at an unplanned time can be very difficult and scary, and deciding what to do could be much harder. The most important thing to remember is that you have a choice. Every woman does! There are three main options: parenting, abortion or adoption. There are no similarities between parenting and abortion. One important similarity between adoption and parenting is that you can give life to your child and watch your child grow up. If a woman chose to adopt her baby, she may feel guilt and shame about her choice. She will miss the opportunity to see her child growing up. Abortion is final! She can’t go back on her decision. There is no cost to you if you choose adoption. In fact, pregnancy-related expenses are paid for by the adoptive family, which often include medical care and living expenses. You will be able to speak with your adoption specialist about your specific needs. If you chose to abort, depending on how far along you are in the pregnancy, the cost will range from $500-$2,000 for an abortion. There may also be additional charges for ultrasound, the "morning-after" pill, birth control and further medical treatment. Parenting is the most expensive option. Total cost to parent a child ranges from $500-$2,000 monthly. A parent must also budget for shelter, food, transportation, and utilities to raise their child. It’s all about your choice, your life, your baby and your future.

Ten Arguments Against Abortion

1- As long as life begins when a female is pregnant, abortion is like murdering because you are ending someone's life. Abortion is against the commonly idea which is the  importance of the human soul and its sanctity.
2- There's no developed community that allows any person to deliberately harm or murder someone without a penalty, and abortion is like murdering, because you are killing.
3- Adoption is a possible substitute to abortion. there's a million and a half families in United States who want to adopt a child, there's no better solution than giving them the unwanted child.
4- Abortion may leads to medical aggravations later in life, the dangerous of ectopic pregnancies multiplies, and the probabilities of a miscarriage and pelvic inflammatory disease also rise up.
5- In case of the rape and incest , suitable medical care can guarantee that a female will not get pregnant. Abortion punishes innocent soul, who committed no crime, the one who should be punished is the one who did this crime 
6- Terminating the pregnancy is not a form of prevent pregnancy ! 
7- For females who request full rule of their body, ruling their bodies must allow avoiding the possibilities of unwanted pregnancy, by using pregnancy preventing methods, or, if that's not possible, you can stop unwanted pregnancy by avoiding sex! 
8- A lot of people who pay taxes in United States against abortion, so it's a moral mistake to use tax money to pay for abortion!
9- Those who decide to abort their pregnancy are usually under maturity age, or immature women with lack in life knowledge to get the real idea about what they are doing. many of them regret all their lives after that.
10-The worst abortion results are the psychological pain and stress.

Teenagers and Survivors

A teen considering abortion is influenced by many factors:
• Where she lives.
• Her religious beliefs.
• Her relationship with her parents.
• Her access to family planning services.
• The behavior of her peer group.
• Her educational level and socioeconomic status also plays a role.
• Desire of not changing their lives by the birth of a baby.
• Her inability to afford a baby.
• Her feeling of immaturity or responsibility to raise a child.
Teen abortion has many risks. Studies have proven that abortion may lead to an increased chance of breast cancer, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, depression, and the contraction of Viral Hepatitis, not to mention death due to excessive bleeding or other complications. Whether you choose to keep your baby, put it up for adoption or have an abortion, hormones run crazy when you are pregnant. Hormones are to blame for the drastic mood swings pregnant women have during pregnancy. As you feel the life inside you start to grow, you will become attached to, or perhaps even angry at, this new life. This life is exactly that - he or she is alive and it is a part of you.
who are the abortion survivors?
1- Attempted abortion survivors: These are people who survived an actual abortion attempt. In other words, the abortion failed to kill them.
2- Twin abortion survivors: These are people whose twin was aborted but they themselves survived.
3- Sibling abortion survivors: These are people born into families where a brother or sister was aborted.

Abortion Pills Side Effects

Women should consider abortion pills side effects before deciding to terminate the life of their child. A medical abortion consists of taking two pills that have been approved by the FDA. The first drug blocks the hormone progesterone so the uterus lining begins to shed. The cervix begins to soften and bleeding begins. Within 24 to 72 hours after taking the first pill the patient will take the second one. The second medication causes the uterus to contract which leads to the pregnancy being expelled. Clinics will not always be forthcoming about abortion pill side effects to their patients because they are making money off of the death of an unborn baby. These pills can have such a devastating effect on a woman's body that she may not be able to carry another child to term if at all.
Health risks that could prevent a patient from being a candidate for a medical abortion include severe anemia or blood clotting problems. Adrenal failures, severe diarrhea, possibility of an ectopic pregnancy or a mass in the reproductive organs are all major concerns for having the procedure.
Primarily the first pill that a woman takes doesn’t cause problems except for bleeding. However, the second pill can cause headache, dizziness, back pain, tiredness, nausea, heavy cramping, diarrhea, and vomiting. In some cases, bleeding can become so great that the patient will have to pass for the vacuum.
This is one of many true stories for women who used abortion pills.
Marie Patterson went to a clinic to quietly consider ways to handle life change she wasn’t ready for. This 18 years old lady, died after one week after she took the abortion pill.
Marie visited a clinic to take the pill. She followed the prescribed procedure for using RU-486, taking two more pills at home in the following days.
After experiencing bleeding and cramps so severe that she wasn’t able o walk, her boyfriend rushed her to the hospital, where she was given painkillers and sent home. She was back in the hospital a few days later and died. (After 7 days from starting the pills).
Her father said that he know from an attending physician at the hospital that she had died after a massive infection caused by fragments of the fetus left inside her uterus which caused her to go into septic shock.
Mr. Patterson felt so guilty and hoped that this tragedy will encourage other women considering abortion to seek support, especially from their families.

Kate’s Testimonial After Abortion.

Kate had an abortion because her father didn’t give her another choice and she couldn’t seek help from anyone because she and her baby were an embarrassment to her father and his reputation. Her father and mother drove her to the clinic and her father made her boyfriend’s parents pay for the procedure. Her father refused to pay and waited for her in the car while her mother accompanied her to the clinic. She couldn’t say a word during the quick counseling session prior to the procedure so that would go against her father’s decision for her unborn child. Then she was off to the ultrasound room to see the baby. That is where she found out that the baby that she had been starting to feel move around inside her was a boy (Michael). Then she was off to the procedure room with her mom. She held her hand through the awful vacuum procedure. She cried and screamed. It was so much pain and the noise of the vacuum was so overbearing. The doctor didn’t have the courtesy to remove the vacuum container that was holding her son prior to telling her to sit up. She saw him in the vacuum container. Kate couldn’t even describe the pain of seeing him. Then she went to the recuperation room to lie down on the one bed. There were two other girls there, sitting in chairs. They were discussing how many abortions they have had. She just rolled toward the wall and cried. 




She got into the car after a half-hour of rest after the procedure, and she remembers the first thing that her father said, with anger. He kept telling her, “Don’t cry over this and do not speak of it again.” And she didn’t for many, many years; even though it was eating her up inside. Her life got out of control for years and years afterwards. She never had a boyfriend that treated her well because she didn’t like herself. She got stage four endometriosis due to the abortion and the emotional trauma of it. She thought she was being punished by God, but what she has learned is that endometriosis is a consequence of the abortion, not a punishment from God. She suffered from depression, self-hatred, and infertility. She got married. Her diagnosed endometriosis and infertility were horrible for her husband and she had to deal with. Kate thinks that there is no much more to tell, but she sees her space is almost filled up. She has been blessed by God with three beautiful kids, and her son is her testimony from God. God is a healer! Abortion is devastating!

Abortion Effects on Males

Males who feel psychological pain after aborting their child can't often get the point . They often don't realize the relation between the abortion in the past, and their present subjective battle.

Just after a female has performed an abortion, she will suffer the strenuous painful results for the rest of her life. On the other hand, females aren't the only ones who will suffer from post-abortion pains. Dr. Richard Epstein [ A psychiatrist ] he said literally : " a man may feel deeply rejected by the destruction of the most important thing he can give to the woman he loves, if so , he may undergo a profound depression".

You can beat all of these painful and injurious behaviors, and get acceptance, forgiveness and aiding.

After Abortion

Uterine massage might be sometimes necessary to decrease cramping.
 To perform uterine massage, use the heel of your hand and push inward firmly on your abdomen while rubbing in a downward motion, from your navel to your pubic hair line. The purpose of uterine massage is to stimulate your uterus to contract back to its pre-pregnant size, thus causing bleeding and possibly clots, which your body needs to pass to stop the cramping. 
Take your temperature every day for the next 7 days; a fever may be an indication that you are developing an infection. Call the doctor if your temperature goes above 85 degrees.


Use maxi pads until your next period, and monitor how much you are bleeding. If you experience heavy bleeding call the doctor.
Take all of your prescribed medications as instructed. 
Return to the Clinic or see your referring gynecologist for a checkup 2 to 3 weeks following your abortion, even if you are still bleeding. 
After an abortion, your cervix may be open for a period of time; generally 1 week for first trimester abortions and two weeks for 2nd trimester.
To reduce the risk of infection:
- Do not use tampons until your next period (in 4-8 weeks). 
- Do not douche, have intercourse, or put anything into your vagina for 1-2 weeks, as specified. 
- Do not take a tub bath or go swimming for 1-2 weeks, as specified. You may shower or kneel down in a bath tub and sponge off. 
- Avoid strenuous exercise (aerobics, running) and heavy lifting (over 15 pounds) for 1-2 weeks, as specified. 
- Avoid aspirin, alcohol and marijuana. These may cause heavier bleeding.

How Abortion works?

There are two methods for abortion, depending on the stage of pregnancy:

1-Medical Abortions: This kind of abortions uses medicines if the period does not pass the 7 weeks. Depending on each case, a woman needs a single pill or many. 


2-Surgical Abortion: This method is used when a woman has passed the 7 weeks of pregnancy, they remove all the pregnancy tissue, it could be made by a manual vacuum aspiration (operated by a machine that aspires the fetus from the vagina), or a dilation which is necessary in the second trimester or if the tissue wasn’t 100% clear after the vacuum. 
The following picture describe how the surgical abortion accomplish :

1- Amniotic sac

2- Embryo

3- Uterine lining

4- Speculum

5- Vacurette

6- The vacurette is attached to a suction pump

When abortion is accomplished, it is necessary to give the woman antibiotics to avoid infections.

Unfortunately, you must know that in few cases, during the abortion (vacuum), the machine might tear the fetus's limbs apart in the process.

Watch out women! This process is harmful for your health first; sometimes you’re not able to get pregnant again !

Before making sex, prevent abortion

If the couple knows that they don’t want the pregnancy to occur, the first way to avoid abortion begins with a safe sexual relation which is called the contraceptive method (when men use a condom or women take pills). The first reason behind the abortion is the contraceptive failure.

Being contraceptive = No AIDS = No Abortion

Second, young people must be provided with education and information, and they must know that getting pregnant is not a passing thing which can be solved by pills or by a small operation, they should also know they this act is forcing them to kill an innocent soul.

Third, it is related to men involvement. When a woman gets pregnant she’s not the only one who creates it, it’s a sharing between a man and a woman. They both have equal responsibilities and decision toward getting pregnant or not, if not they should both or at least one use the contraceptive method.

The way to prevent abortion is not to make it illegal. Many years ago, abortion was legal but many women were down or died or head some chronicle diseases. 

Common Reasons for Abortion

The most common reasons and causes of abortion are summarized as follow:
- Abnormality in the fetus form: abortion often occurs in the first three months of pregnancy because the fetus is abnormal. It was found that more than half of abortions are due to genetic problems in the fetus and age ( when a woman is more than 35 years) :


- Diseases and birth defects in the genital tract of the mother: for example, cervical muscle weakness, and abnormal growth of the placenta .
- Severe infections: such as Mycoplasma, blood infection, German measles .
- Chronic disease with the mother: it includes diabetes, a rise in blood pressure, secretion. Therefore, it is suggested to consider a medical care for women and a control before pregnancy .
- Other factors: some medicines, alcohol, drugs .


And sure without forgetting that sometimes there are no factors or causes for abortion, but many times women have a sexual relation and get pregnant in an unwanted time and decide not to keep the baby, so they kill him !

Abortion Leads to Depression

Abortion affects women much more deeply than they think. It makes women dissatisfied. It makes them give up and sometimes refuse the idea of continuing their lives. Some women visit a psychologist after abortion and in some cases few women suicide. 
Beside all this, we find their ability to make dangerous activities such as drinking too much alcohol or taking drugs which lead them to addiction.
Their unstable situation interrupts their daily activities such as work, house duties, social life. Some women get the desire of getting pregnant immediately to replace the baby that they lost with another one, and others get frustrated from continuing their relationship or even getting a new one.

Isolation and depression are other symptoms of abortion. Some women stay in their rooms or house and refuse to talk to someone or socialize for a long time. They get nightmares, bad ideas such as (suicide, hurting themselves ... etc). In some cases, they become attached to every single baby they see, whether they know him or not.

Women!! Stay apart and save your life, you’re harming your health, destroying your future and killing an innocent soul, and maybe ending your life!!

Christian or Muslim, save your soul !

All religions have strong positions on abortion. They believe that the issue of life or death is a major religious concern no matter what the reasons are. As we have mentioned in previous articles, women who make abortion are not only affected physically and emotionally, but also spiritually as well. Therefore, I’m going to publish the Christians and Islam’s point of view concerning this act.

Christianity

The Church says that human life begins when the woman's egg is fertilised by a male sperm. From that moment a unique life begins, independent of the life of the mother and father. Each new life that begins at this point is not a potential human being but a human being with potential.

The church never facilitates this act; it condemns it and totally refuses it. Abortion is absolutely forbidden.

God treats a fetus in the womb as a living person.

God says murder is sin. (Abortion kills the fetus.) 

God calls us to protect the defenseless, including children.

Although abortion is a deadly sinner, God is always present to forgive those who made abortion when they ask for forgiveness.

Islam

Every human being born or not is sacred in Muslims; as they have clearly stated the right of a fetus, but many Muslims’ schools consider that there might some exceptional cases such as:

- Continuous pregnancy might put the mother’s life in a danger

- Abnormality in the pregnancy

- Abortion must occur in the first 12 weeks of  pregnancy 

The Qur’an says: “Whosoever has spared the life of a soul, it is as though he has spared the life of all people. Whosoever has killed a soul, it is as though he has murdered all of mankind.”

In Conclusion, Abortion is against humanity, Christians, Muslims, and most important GOD. So think twice before making any act that may ham your religion and especially your soul.

Negative Effects of Abortion

Abortion affects women physically, emotionally, and spiritually:

- When an abortion is performed on a woman, she becomes subject to many physical complications. Blood loss during the procedure causes diversion of blood flow to various organs and can result in shock. When the canal of the cervix is dilated, the insides of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and the abdominal cavity are exposed to invasion by bacteria. Abdominal infection can cause peritonitis and abscess formation. Severe hemorrhage often follows an abortion. Instruments can perforate the uterus causing injury, infection, and bleeding to internal organs. Heavy bleeding might sometimes cause death.

- Not only do these women bear physical side effects, but they also suffer many emotional side effects. Among these are depression, long-term grief reactions, anger, sexual dysfunction, guilt, flashbacks, memory repression, suicidal ideas, and difficulty keeping close relationships. Of two hundred and sixty women surveyed in the United States, over sixty percent said their abortion made their life worse.

- It is not normal for a woman to kill her child.   One of the major effects of having an abortion is guilt.  The mother who has aborted her child will at times feel intense guilt for destroying her child's life.   In the Bible, God gave mankind the Fifth Commandment. Whenever anyone breaks a commandment they will feel guilt and sorrow for the evil they have done.  The Catholic Church teaches that if a woman has an abortion she has committed a mortal sin.  Any mortal sin separates us from God and the penalty for mortal sin is hell.

Brief Statistics About Abortion Worldwide

Abortion is legal in some countries but not others, in different countries the week limit is different; For example, in United Kingdom is up to 24 weeks where as Turkey is up to 10 weeks.

While women of every social class seek terminations, the typical woman who ends her pregnancy is either young, white, unmarried, poor, or over the age of 40. In the United States and worldwide, abortion (known also as elective termination of pregnancy) remains common.

The US Supreme Court legalized abortion in the well-known Roe v Wade decision in 1973; currently, there are about 1.2 million abortions are performed each year in the United States.

Worldwide, some 20-30 million legal abortions are performed each year, with another 10-20 million abortions performed illegally. Illegal abortions are unsafe and account for 13% of all deaths of women because of serious complications. Death from abortion is almost unknown in the United States or in other countries where abortion is legally available.

I can understand that some causes of abortion might be logical and taken into consideration, such as fetal genetic anomalies, infection, radiation…etc, but the thing that could not be accepted is when a woman decides to kill an innocent human in the name of freedom, rights or even irresponsible act in sex desire.

Introduction

           Abortion is the process of termination of a pregnancy before birth with the consequent death of the fetus. If the fetus does not develop normally abortion may occur or the mother’s suffers from an injury or disorder there is prevention on her part to stretch the pregnancy to its full term. Such spontaneous abortion is generally called as miscarriage.

          Since that the termination of lives is constantly increasing day after day, it has become one of the most controversial issues of our time. Therefore, I decided to handle this problem and provide information and articles as much as I can hoping that one day I might solve it or at least diminish the number of pregnant women who think about aborting.
