Pregnancy.. Not All It's Cracked Up to Be.

Just one of the reasons why people should
not be forced to gestate
what is preeclampsia?
preeclampsia is a disorder that
occurs only during pregnancy and the
postpartum period and affects both the
mother and the unborn baby.
affecting at least 5-8% of all
pregnancies, it is a rapidly progressive
condition characterized by high blood
pressure and the presence of protein in
the urine. Swelling, sudden weight
gain, headaches and changes in vision are
important symptoms; however, some women
with rapidly advancing disease report few
symptoms.
Typically, preeclampsia occurs after 20
weeks gestation (in the late 2nd or 3rd
trimesters or middle to late pregnancy),
though it can occur earlier. Proper
prenatal care is essential to diagnose and
manage preeclampsia. Preeclampsia,
pregnancy induced hypertension (pih) and
toxemia are closely related conditions.
Hellp syndrome and eclampsia are other
manifestations of the same syndrome. It
is important to note that research shows
that more women die from preeclampsia than
eclampsia and one is not necessarily more
serious than the other.
preeclampsia and other hypertensive
disorders of pregnancy are a leading
global cause of maternal and infant
illness and death. By conservative
estimates, these disorders are responsible
for 76,000 deaths each
year.

Because now they know they have a choice!
They also know that women have other
functions to perform on this earth beside
being a broodmare.If a woman cooses to
have children,that's fine.If she chooses
not to,that is her right!Patty

we're in the 21'st century.. That's why..
We're not in the dark ages anymore. The
only people who would feel enslaved are
those who are.

what makes this centuary so special?
"the only people who would feel enslaved
are those who are."
then I feel enslaved and so should you and
every damn one of us!
"because we have a choice"
if I was suddenly allowed to kill....
Well anyone I wanted - if the law then
took away that choice would it be
enslaving?
"the mind is the last refuge of man"
"if the son of man sets you free, you are
free indeed"

Why? |
for centuries, childbirth
was the main cause of women's death.
Rest assured that they often felt
enslaved.

Believe me for centuries child birth has
been the main cause of death for men too!
more women died from child birth than old
age? Seems unlikely
"assured that they often felt enslaved."
who by?
The government and the law at the time?

I do not recall the majority of women who
are pro-choice saying that they hate
pregnancy or babies.There may be a few who
have said that the idea of having children
is not appealling to them.Would it be
better if these women had children they
did not want??You need to understand that
these situations are not always black or
white.Izzy,what would you do if you got
your girlfriend pregnant and you both
really did not want to continue with the
pregnancy???Can you honestly say that you
would both agree to have the baby?What if
she did not want to carry to term?It's her
body-you cannot make a woman stay pregnant
if she does not feel that is what is right
for her at the time.With some
experience,you may come to see that.Patty

Well if that happened I would do all I
could to try and prevent her making the
abortion choice that includes any help or
maybe in absolut desperation maybe even
threats but I couldnt make her carry to
term as the law says she can abort
if she had an abortion I would just leave
her never talk to her again - perhaps I
may even go so far kicking seven colors
of....... I wouldnt know until put in
that possition!
A friend of mine was done for attempted
manslaughter after he nearly killed his
wife when he found out she had aborted
their child without even consulting
him.... He found out via one of her
friends!
He didnt get charged instead he had to
visit a psychiatrist for so many sessions
- he still goes now and again even though
he dosnt have to..... He was absolutly
devistated - he would have loved to have
had a child - he has none and he is in his
late fortys now.... Obviously divorced,
single and distrusts women - she wrecked
his life... Poor guy!

It would seem to me that there were more
problems than her simply being pregnant.I
cannot see a loving couple doing that.It
would also seem that he had some anger
issues,too.Patty

go check your stats.
40% of women died from pregnancy until
about 200 years ago.

no, by the inability to
prevent their pregnancy and thus staying
alive.

hmm, so your friends are
as violently misogynistic as you are.
How despicable and pathetic.

given his behavior, it is
a good thing that he didn't breed. His
kids could easily have been the next
hitler when his father was such a violent
and misogynistic creep. His wife did the
world a favor, and I am sorry that she had
to endure his psychotic and hatemongering
violence in the process. Any way I can
give her a helping hand? She has earned
it.

we have duly noted that
you see a wife beater as a "nice guy."
that says volumes about what a
misogynistic creature you truly are.
| Quote: |

obviously an outright lie
as he did hurt somebody. Only his wife,
which is a woman and therefore not as
important as a fly in your world, but to
the rest of us, your claim is an outright
lie.
| Quote: |
tr> | but he must of
just snapped |
ah, yes. The old "she
made him do it" excuse for men who are of
such piss-poor quality that they can't
control themselves. Creeps like that
gives other men a bad name.

oh yes he sounds like an absolute saint!
How tragic that he was turned by an evil
woman who should have bred for his
benefit! The poor lamb was helpless, she
made him do it!
Get back to the dark ages izzy.

Go on attack the poor guy - a person you
dont even know behind his back - go on!
Judgementel behaviour is a very becoming
part of the pro choice attitude!

gosh -- a guy is charged with attempted
manslaughter for beating up his wife so
bad he nearly killed her...And saying he's
less than a saint is being judgemental?
Am I missing something here?

I never said he was a saint but you lot
have done nothing but gang up and kick
into him, you have offered no
understanding - no compasion - nothing.
You have been like a bunch of wild dogs
riving at a injured animal. I know why
to take the spotlight off the real issue
his rights or lack of them as a father and
a husband!
He has no criminal record - he has never
been in a fight in his life the only dodgy
thing I have ever known him do was to
record music onto tape from radio
stations.
How about the woman hmmmm - why no finger
pointing at her eh? How come he is the
bad guy in all this?
He was her husband for crying out loud....
He was the father of their child
dont you think he deserved to be
consulted.....
Do you think even in marriage the husband
should have no rights?
Dont you think he deserved to hold his own
child?
Dont you think he deserved to pitch a pass
to his own child?
Dont you think that her career is not a
good enough reason to kill his child?
Dont you think that if someone came into
your house and killed your son or daughter
you would say well ok thats no problem or
do you think you would be so devistated
that you would attack and damn well try
and kill that motherf***er
dont you think it is undestandable that he
did what he did?
No obviously not - I tell you now
this is the last time I let you in to my
life and discuss openly and honestly
things that have effected my friends or
myself.....
You are nothing but manipulitve hard
hearted sons of biches!

he has rights as a father yes, but only to
a born child, not rights to control his
girlfriend. And he proved that he should
not have any rights as a father and
husband - no domestic abuser should raise
kids.

ok izzy, you are aware of that?

She prevented a child being raised by a

Hell no.

1) there was no child 2) domestic abusers
should have no rights to ruin children.

1) there was no child 2) she can abort for
whatever reason she likes, it's her body
and yes, I personally think a career is a
good enough reason but it doesn't matter
what I think - i'm not the one that's
pregnant.

it was a fetus. And you should never take
