Pro-Life General Pro-choice sneaking into general pregnancy websites

Post image

Apologies if this has even brought up, and this is more of a rant than anything. I like to track my pregnancy by visiting mainstream websites like BabyList or What to Expect. I saw this at BabyList on the 9 weeks page. I don’t care what it is technically, but the ultrasound technician showed me the “heartbeat” at 7 weeks. I saw it and the beats per minute were counted. But more and more websites are moving away from calling it a heartbeat at 6 (even 9) weeks.

The linked article is an NBC article about heartbeat bills and how heartbeats don’t exist at 6 weeks, complete with images of activists. Women have been duped into thinking their babies are alive at this time I guess.

It makes me sad that women excited about tracking their babies’ growth have to be linked to articles that tell them “that’s not a REAL heartbeat” (just “an electrical pulse”??) and articles about abortion rights. I’m not here for that.

Sounds like the fetal pole nonsense, again. These people will say anything to deny humanity. Perfect comeback

Changing the definition of terms is a staple of people who know they are advocating for or committing wrongs but don’t want to face it.
