Abortion and the risks to future babies

Andrea Mrozek and Jill Stanek point us to a new review conducted which found that “women who have abortions are more likely to have premature or low birth weight babies in later life.”

Notice the praise from the pro-abortion NHS:

This thorough and well-conducted review combined results from studies looking at terminations over the past 30 years. It found an increased risk of having a premature birth or low birthweight baby if a woman has had a prior termination.

This review has some limitations because of the variable quality and methods of the individual studies it used, and the findings could be explained by several factors including the possibility of changes in medical care and practice since the earlier studies. However, the findings are supported by a body of research and illustrate the importance in giving women all the information so that they can make an informed choice.

As Andrea pointed out, this is Canadian medical research straight out of Toronto, yet there’s little talk about it in the Canadian press.

Now… what about the risks to present babies?
