Counseling before an abortion provides a woman with options that will save the life of her child. Women who get pregnant, especially for the first time may not realize the services that are available to them. Financial assistance provides for the medical care of the mother and child while she is pregnant. Organizations that are pro life often have services that help the mother-to-be obtain maternity clothes. In addition, baby clothes and supplies are offered for women in need of them. Options such as adoption can be discovered through counseling before an abortion. There may even be someone in the family of the mother-to-be who can not have children of their own. Even if this is not so there are many couples out there who cannot have children of their own. The patient is encouraged to talk to many different couples in hopes that she will feel comfortable giving them her child to raise as their very own. "And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me" (Hebrews 2:13).
According to statistics over 1 million abortions have been performed every year since 1973 when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of legal abortions. Some women will decide to terminate a pregnancy because it is now legal to do so. A few ladies use the procedure as a form of birth control but some do not realize that they are committing murder of a human life because they have been told that this developing life within them is just a zygote or a fetus, not yet a baby. Counseling before an abortion with a pro life organization will provide the facts to a mother-to-be, that life begins at conception and this little blob of tissue is fully human and fully alive. A baby is a full and functioning human being very early in his or her development. Once conception takes place a precious child with all of his or her individual characteristics exist. After eight weeks, the child has a fully functioning brain and nervous system along with working organs including a liver that is making blood and a heart that is steadily beating.
An ideal situation would be for clinics to give extensive counseling before an abortion; where the pregnant female is given all the facts, not only about the procedure but about the developing child, and the psychological after effects of having an abortion. Abortion clinics need to be regulated carefully to make sure that they are in compliance. What would be great is if clinics were required to send the pregnant woman to a pro life group so that she can understand the permanent implications of her actions; once the procedure is done there is no turning back and this is a memory that will be with her for the rest of her life. Counseling before an abortion should be mandatory to combat the psychological effects a woman deals with after terminating a pregnancy. Statistics have shown that many women suffer afterwards especially psychologically. Although it is not always documented, ladies can develop anger issues and mental disorders because of this act.
Thank God there is some information available online that is there for anyone who has an Internet connection. Anyone wanting to know the legal facts that led to the procedure becoming legal in the United States can read that online. They can read about the ban on partial-birth abortions signed by President George W. Bush in 2003. This type of information can be helpful for those considering the termination of a pregnancy. Basically, a partial-birth abortion is one that takes place in the second and third trimester of the pregnancy and the only exception is if the mother's life is in danger. This ban recognizes the rights of the child in the womb and is there to protect that life. Counseling before an abortion should contain factual information about lawmakers that do exist in this country who are trying to protect the innocent. One of the things that the Lord hates is a person who sheds the blood of the innocent. Praise God for people in office who have morals and are ethical.
Medical history should be included in counseling before an abortion. A physician should consider any diseases that may have affected their patient's reproductive organs especially sexually transmitted ones. Patients who have a history of serious medical problems should be counseled and may not be a candidate for an abortion. Some of the diseases include diabetes, high blood pressure, anemia, bleeding disorders, and heart disease. Cancer of the reproductive organs is another disease that qualifies as a special medical problem. Counseling should include the history of medications being taken by the patient. A physical exam will help to determine any other issues that might be of concern. An ultrasound is done to confirm the pregnancy and the development of the fetus. Also, physicians should be able to rule out an ectopic pregnancy when doing an ultrasound.
Some states do have mandatory counseling before an abortion where the patient is given options on the risks and benefits of different procedures. In addition, some states require that the patient go through a mandatory waiting period between receiving counseling and actually having an abortion. Unfortunately, not many states have these requirements. The patient should seek out additional information on her own and know all the facts. Hopefully, between counseling and a waiting period the women in those states who require these will change their mind and not terminate the life of their child.
