How To Terminate Pregnancy?

Posted on Fri, 23 Oct 2015

Question: Hello, my wife has just missed her period and she did a pregnancy test, and it is positive. We were thinking of terminating the pregnancy, however we would like to know what to do, and also, we were wondering about the fetus, is it an actual fetus at this stage?

Brief Answer:
It is a live fetus

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1. Yes. It is a live fetus with heart beat at this stage of pregnancy.

2. If you wish to terminate the pregnancy, you need to get an ultrasound scan done to check location and growth of fetus.

3. After this you can ask your doctor to prescribe pills for terminating pregnancy.

Let me know if you need any more help.

Oh ok, so it has a heartbeat, and other internal organs? We were just not sure if it was still a (zygote) we were conflicted, because we would not want to take a life that had already formed we were just unsure.

Brief Answer:
It is live baby

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It is a live fetus with heart beat.

All organs would not have developed by now but definitely baby would have life. In another 2 weeks baby would develop some organs.

I suggest you let the baby grow and have a normal healthy baby as God's gift instead of terminating.

Let me know if you need any more help.
