Abortion Increases the Risk of Premature Babies?

Published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the Canadian researchers found that women who had undergone a first or second trimester of pregnancy, when most abortions are conducted, increased the risk of low birth-weight babies and premature babies 35 and 36 per cent respectively.

Those women who had undergone more than one abortion had a 72 per cent increased risk for low birth weight and 93 per cent risk of prematurity.

The figures come from an analysis of 37 studies around the world, carried out between 1965 and 2001, to discover reasons why babies are born underweight and premature.

There are approximately 60 studies linking abortion to prematurity and low birth weight.

African American women abort at about 3 times the rate of white women in the USA. They also by far have the most prematurity and low birth weight babies...

So why don't we hear about this??

Let's get the word out!!

Abortion Kills More Black Americans than the Seven Leading Causes of Death Combined: CDC 2005 data

Abortion kills more black Americans than the seven leading causes of death combined, according to data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for 2005, the latest year for which the abortion numbers are available.

Abortion killed at least 203,991 blacks in the 36 states and two cities (New York City and the District of Columbia) that reported abortions by race in 2005, according to the CDC.

During that same year, according to the CDC, a total of 198,385 blacks nationwide died from heart disease, cancer, strokes, accidents, diabetes, homicide, and chronic lower respiratory diseases combined.

These were the seven leading causes of death for black Americans that year. [http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/55956CNS News; ALL Pro-Life Today, 26Oct09]
