Images of Fetal Development

We encourage pro-life groups and individuals to use these images, keeping in mind the words that pollster Harrison Hickman spoke to the 1989 conference of the National Abortion Rights Action League, "Nothing has been as damaging to our cause as the advances in technology which have allowed pictures of the developing fetus, because people now talk about that fetus in much different terms than they did fifteen years ago. They talk about it as a human being, which is not something that I have an easy answer how to cure."

A nurse comments on the benefit of using these diagrams in a Pregnancy Care Center

As a registered nurse working at a pro-life pregnancy help clinic, I would like you to know how much the abortion diagrams (9 week and twenty weeks) from your website are appreciated as a useful educational tool.

At our center, we have laminated the diagrams and keep them available in both the counseling rooms and ultrasound area. Several of the counselors have told me that sharing these diagrams has made a difference in the final decision made by some of our patients in continuing a pregnancy.

I highly recommend these visual aides as an important tool in education of young women considering abortion. All counseling centers and women's clinics could benefit from their use. They are well-done and accurate depictions of first and second trimester abortions.

Thank you so very much,

Natalie, RN
