My grandmother in NC had to carry five pregnancies she knew weren’t viable nearly to term. She should have been given abortifacients before the end of the first trimester. But abortion was illegal and so they had to wait for the fetus to die.
Imagine feeling a child you desperately wanted grow in you for nearly 9 months knowing it was going to die, then having to have it cut into pieces and removed from your body. Five times.
That’s what NC has gone back to.
