how far along do you have to be before it is to late for an abortion?

Question

I do not want to do it but we are in a tight situation, just looking at options.

Answer 1

1 second old. It's too late to have an aborortion. Try finding your baby a good home.

Answer 2

Depending on the state the latest you can have an abortion is either the end of the 1st trimester or the 20 week mark.
If you dont want an abortion then by all means dont get one. There are tons of programs out there to help. If you're thinking about it for financial reasons go talk to someone at your local WIC office, find out the benifits available to you before you make a decision. And in my personal opinion adoption is always a better choice than abortion UNLESS you have to get it done for medical reasons.

Answer 3

In the United States there are clinics that go to 26 weeks for elective abortion, but only in two or three places. Also, be aware that every passing week makes it more expensive, so if you can have it sooner than later it is always a good idea.

For more information call 1-800-772-9100 tomorrow morning. They have unbiased, factual information.

Answer 4

Well first you need to decide if thats the only option you have......you are gonna get alot of negative replys.....so be prepared.......if your doing this because you were put in a situation (being raped, drinking too much and someone took advantage, you used protection but it broke)..then its really pushing it after 10 weeks. I do believe in pro-choice..that is the womans decision and that if you can't bring a baby into this world for a personal reason...then its nobody's business.
But if you were just careless and this is a method of birth control..then its wrong. BUT FOR WHATEVER YOUR REASON....GOOD LUCK

Answer 5

Please don't let anyone hurt your child. Your situation will change, but your son or daughter will be gone forever and there will no way to bring him or her back. Your baby is depending on you for love and protection. Please don't let him or her down. There is help available, and you need to do whatever it takes to protect your child. You will manage. That is what families do.

Keep in mind that your baby's heart started beating at just three weeks. By six weeks, she has little fingers and recordable brain waves. By eight weeks, she can suck her thumb and feel pain.

Please take a look at the information below before you do something you will regret the rest of your life.

You can do the right thing. You are a daddy. Your baby needs you to be strong.

ADDITION: Beware of the 800 number given by "Auntie Rae" below. This the number for the National Abortion Federation, a group of abortionists. People who are in the business of selling abortions are NOT going to give you the most unbiased information!

Answer 6

Unfortunately it can be done all nine months of pregnancy, thanks to the Doe v. Bolton ruling, companion to Roe.

All nine months, though, it's murder, so don't even consider that as an option. Adoption is an option if you don't want the child. There are crisis pregnancy centers, and you can call 1-800-395-HELP (I think that's the right number).

Abortion is never a valid choice.

Answer 7

Depends on your state's laws. You're Ok for the first few months in most states. If your doctor says your health/life is in danger, you can get it done later. Look in your phone book for Planned Parenthood.

Ignore the people who won't answer your question. If a blob of cells is a human and having DNA is the only criteria for "human life" then every time they use spermicide they're killing off a potential baby.

Answer 8

Anything past 3 months is too far along, unless there is an urgent medical need to abort the fetus.

Answer 9

It depends on the state in which you live, some states will do them up to 20 weeks. But If that is your choice I wouldnt wait....In Michigan they require you to take a 48 hour waiting period after you pick up the information. I was going to do it but I backed out last minute. Dont let anyone judge you, you do what you need to do, for you.

Answer 10

it seems like the answer to this question changes everyday,,it usto be 3 months was the limit,,but there was an incident in the news where a pregnant woman was murdered and her child survived weeks in the womb after her death,,and i think the law has been altered since then to possibly two months
