Is abortion possible after 4 - 5 months old pregnancy without any risk ?

Question

Need information about the procedure and the time it takes

Answer 1

Why would you do that?  At that age a lot of the baby has formed already.  I'm sorry, but I think that's terrible.  I hope you think hard about that.  When you see that lifeless baby that they take out of you, you will never be able to change your mind.

Answer 2

Why would you post this question on adoption??

Answer 3

yes you can. it's a 2 day process but it's still got the same risks as any medical procedure.

Look don't listen to these people that are trying to make you feel bad. if you can't take care of this child and don't want to then this is the best decision.

I am adopted and will not bring a child into this world that i'm not willing to take care of. i actually commend you for not putting the child up for adoption. the people that want you to believe that adoption is more humane probably have no clue what it feels like to be adopted. it's always easier to talk about something as if it's no big deal when you've never experienced it. I thank you for your decision and wish you well.

Answer 4

Why is this in the adoption section?

Answer 5

It's a bit late to be thinking about that now. I am pro-choice but to me that would be murder, it already resembles a baby. You could always adopt the baby out to somebody who can't have kids and will love it more than it sounds like you would.

Answer 6

i know people who have been adopted and are grateful.  it sounds like someone here had a bad experience, but that's not everyone.  the death the baby suffers at this point is very painful.  their hearts race when it happens.  my neighbor delivered at 5 months and her little boy is totally healthy.  i know it is rare to deliver that early with out problems, but it's possible so abortion can't be justified.  please consider letting someone who can't have one of their own love yours.

Answer 7

The fetus is located via ultrasound, which serves to guide the entrance of forceps into the mother’s womb. A foot is grasped and the fetus is placed into a face-down breech (feet first) delivery position.

The fetus is then pulled out of the uterus, but keeping the head still inside the mother’s cervix. Surgical scissors are then inserted into the skull at the back of the neck and an opening is thus enlarged to allow placement of a large-bore suction catheter attached to high powered suction. The fetal brain is then suctioned out of the fetal cranial vault. The fetus is now dead and the delivery is completed.

Answer 8

Please get in touch with a clinic in your area and get real medical advice.

Answer 9

Don't you think it's alittle late to be considering this?  Are you aware how much the fetus resembles a human by now?  Don't do it!  (Unless it's medically necessary.)

Answer 10

Abortion without any risk?  Risk of what?  Death?  Yes, your child will die.  The risk of death to your baby is 100%.  The abortionist will locate the child by listening for a heartbeat to confirm that there is a living baby and then kill it.

Answer 11

Well, it`s too late, consider adoption... You should have put this in another section ( health), why not contact a family that is desperately trying to have a child. Turn your sorrow into a blessing for someone else??? But I can`t see the procedure any different than giving birth to a live infant.. But there is risk in every procedure. I bet the would have to induce you and you would have to dilate like being in labor. It would take awhile, not to mention they wouldn`t be humane to the fetus either.

Answer 12

Let me just say that while I don't know much about the specifics of your question, I do know about abortion, at 17, I had one, I'm now 42, and not one day goes by that I do not think of it and regret it and miss that baby, don't do it, you'll never forgive yourself for it. Trust me. Take it from someone who knows.

Answer 13

Yes, abortion is possible then.  Most abortions done that late usually are the result of medical issues-either for the mother or the fetus. The abortion is performed in the hospital.  Some states require a judge to rule on it if it is after 23 weeks gestation.  If this is not a medically necessary abortion, then contact Planned Parenthood or a woman's clinic for further direction. If it is a medically necessary abortion, but for reasons of location, not suitable to be done through your doctor, you can also contact Planned Parenthood for referral.

As far as risk, the risk is small, but not zero.  Most problems are excessive bleeding or infection.

Answer 14

wow you should have thought about this before you got so far a long.  There are always risks in any medical procedure. Why did you post this in adoption, it should have gone in medical health or something.

Roughly 5monthy baby in womb

Answer 15

At that stage of pregency abortion should only be an option if there is major risk to mothers and or babys life. The unborn child(thats what it is , a tiny human life) already has a heartbeat,limbs,facial structer and many other very real alive qualities.Any abortion at this stage will be very risky to the woman and is basicly induced labor whereas the fetus will die during bith or just after due to undeveloped vital organs.Surely adoption is an option worth considering rather than being responcible for ending the life you are carrying in your womb. You most likely will hate yourself in the future at some time. THINK ABOUT IT. You should have done it in first 3 months before the heart developed if you intended not to have it.Or better still use contraception.

Answer 16

just have the baby and set it up for adoption.

Answer 17

most states will not perform a legal abortion past 24 weeks. and the risks associated with the procedure increase with the length of time you are pregnant.

please get in touch with a family planning center, like planned parenthood or your local health department's family planning clinic to assist you with your options.

Answer 18

I don't know the answer to your question. I would like to believe it is not legal. If you don't want your baby, contact me!!! My husband and I want to adopt, we have a 3 yr old and I am not able to have anymore children. We would love to take this blessing off your hands!!!

Answer 19

Seems to be a bit late to consider abortion at 5 months!  Consider carrying full term and adoption.  Talk to someone locally, I'm sure you will be able to figure something out.

Answer 20

Please consider going full term and just placing the child. At least you wouldn't be murdering a baby! I'm a birthmom and I am so glad I didn't even consider abortion. Do you know how much it looks like a person? It's almost to the point that it could survive. Please consider adoption!

Answer 21

why oh why oh why would you ask a question like that in the ADOPTION section? People here are either adopted, birthparents, or looking to adopt. As an adoptee, I'm honestly insulted. Half of the people on here are desperatly wanting a baby, and you come asking how to kill one?

If you had done your research, you'd know that after the first trimester, abortion becomes increasingly cruel and painful. By 5 months, the baby is too big to simply suck out.

Look up partial birth abortions, saline solution, and dilation/curettage. I'm  going to go into graphic detail here, but you asked for information. If you dont want to know or you cant handle it, dont read any farther.

Partial birth involves delivering everything but the head of the baby, inserting sissors into the neck, and using a high power vacuum to suck the brains out of the live child. Saline solution involved injecting the amniotic sac with saline, which burns the outer layers of flesh off the child. You'll feel it thrashing around inside you while, at this gestation, while its dying. Dilation and curettage is when the doctor uses an instrument that looks like pliars to rip off parts off the child. They fish around until they find a body part, twist, and out it comes. Eventually they get most of the baby out, but sometimes they accidently leave pieces behind.

It has been recorded that sometimes a baby survives the abortion. Sometimes the doctor slips during a partial birth and accidently delivers the whole baby. When this happens, its a huge liability to the clinic. Doctors have been caught beating newborns to death with medical instruments, placing them in trash bags to suffocate, tossing them in buckets of water to drown, and leaving them alone in closets for hours without medical attention until they die. Go read the book Lime 5, its full of documented cases such as this.

Since you asked how long an abortion takes, Im assuming that you dont want to be bothered by a long proceedure. You think that having something forcibly removed from your womb is a quick, easy thing? Women have been maimed and killed during abortion. Again, read Lime 5.. Potential problems can include have baby bits left behind in your uterus, which can lead to life threatening infection. Also, having your uterus punctured by the scapel or by bits of sharp bone. If the abortionist doesnt notice, its possible to have your intestines sucked out through the vacuum. It's happened many times in the past and will happen many times in the future.

If you're already 5 months pregnant, you're probably showing. Why not give your child a chance at life? I think its a little bit careless to wait until 5 months gestation to get an abortion. 4 months from now, you can give a childless or infertile couple the baby that they want so badly. If you dont want it, someone else will take it into their home and do the very best they can.

Did you know that sometimes babies are born at 23 or 24 weeks and survive? The official age of viability, I belive, is 26 weeks, but babies have been known to survive as young as 20 weeks, though admittedly, that is rare. It is quite common now for a 24 weeker to survive and grow into a completely healthy child.

I have a feeling that I'm going to get all kinds of negative rating, which  is fine with me. Anyone can google the different types of abortion. I know that they're is some controversy over when an unborn child begins to feel pain, but if you look at pictures of aborted babies, you'll see. You can actually watch videos of abortions being performed. You can watch an ultersound while an abortion is performed. Look at the baby while its being killed and tell me it doesnt hurt. Either way, most experts agree that an unborn child can feel pain by 5 months.

So hate me if you want. I've done my research and I know my stuff. If you dont want to know, dont ask next time.

Answer 22

no, there is very high risk. i'm not sure about it, but after that long, you would almost need a medical reason to abort the child. there are only certain states that will do it. i know kansas is one of them. the process takes 2 days, assuming you have no complications. the first day they insert this little thing to open your cervix. the procedure is the following day. it's pretty expensive, somewhere around $700.

Answer 23

there is no abortion after 14 weeks...legally.

dude.

Answer 24

In most places, by that point it can be illegal, and disgusting.

Of course there's risk.

Answer 25

There is no such thing as a medical procedure without risk.

Answer 26

i think there would be risks..but at 4-5 months the fetus aleady looks like a real baby,you know that i mean? im 5 months  pregnant and when i first got my sonnogram,i was shocked at how baby-like it is now..if you want to have an abortion,it's your choise,and i know you're not asking for my opinion but why dont u think about it long and hard? think about what you would feel years from now when you look back to it.  just a suggestion..but really,there would be health risks,i would think,if you get an abortion now..but it's still possible..

Answer 27

Why don't you just stick it out another 4 months ? Adoption seems more humane at this point.....

Partial birth abortion is the only option now.... might as well deliver it on time.

Answer 28

no the risk is very high

Answer 29

I dont know I have never had one but thats pretty sick to want to end the life of a perfectly formed baby and your in the adoption section . why not let one of these fine people raise it.

Answer 30

Why did you not decide on this about three months earlier?

FYI, at this stage of pregnancy, the fetus is considered viable and no doctor will touch you.  Stick it out the extra four months and (if you absolutely have to) leave the hospital after giving birth and never look back.  Safe haven laws were created for irresponsible women like you.

And I should also mention that the fetus will feel pain.  Not right, not right at all.  I am pro choice, but not this far along.

Answer 31

Yes "Partial birth abortions" are possible in SOME states.  Why though do you see this as an option?  I dont understand why you would rather go through such a gross procedure and it is very risky to you as well.  Why not just place the child for adoption.  Let me know if you are interested...would love to adopt!!
