One of the methods is called a d&c
they remove the baby that way. There are
other ways but that is most common at 24
weeks.

A d&c and short recovery time...Then
sent home (most likely the same day).
Good luck and best wishes,

I lost my baby at 24 weeks and they
enduced labor. I was in the hospital for
2 days. My doctor advised me that this
was the best method because it is more
natural for the cervix to slowly dialate
and to naturally pass the fetus. It is
the more emotionally challenging way, but
better for your body.

Could you please tell me where can I find
a place that can perform an abortion
during 24 months of pregnancy?

I have never heard of docotrs performing
abortions after 12 (occasionally 16)
weeks. It becomes too dangerous. Your
best option is now to have the child
adopted.
Not meaning to sound nasty but why have
you waited so long before thinking about
this?

You are already far along and not alot of
states do that partial birth abortion but
I think the cut off date for that is like
24 weeks. If you waited too long just put
it up for adoption.

The only reasons that an abortion would be
performed at 24 weeks would normally be
that the mother's life is in danger or
more usually because of severe abnormality
in the fetus.

excuse me for saying so, but I must point
out your nauseating degree of rudeness and
inconsideration. A woman is asking for
advice, presumably because she or someone
she is close to has just lost a baby, and
you come onto the same thread and ask how
to kill one the same age? Please take
your question to another thread where it
belongs and be more considerate of
people's losses!

First of all if you were 24 months
pregnant you would definately be in the
guiness book.
Secondly, I am pretty sure they will not
perform this procedure unless you or the
baby are going to die in delivery.
Thirdly, there is an abortion forum on
ehealth and your question would be better
off there.
Fourthly, if you did not want this baby
you should have used birth control/of the
morning after pill or had an abortion in
the very beginning. Preferably the first
one, birth control it comes in all shapes
and sizes. Aborting your baby now would
be like cutting a newborn up into little
pieces. Sorry that is graphic and maybe
tmi, but that is exactly what you would be
doing. I am prochoice, but that is just
ridiculous.
