I want to have a second baby but I'm afraid to even be pregnant here! (In Texas) I have a nexplanon in my arm which is making me feel so weird and depressed, but I refuse to take it out because I'm so terrified I'll end up in a situation like this. I miscarried at home last year and it was horrible. I was only 7 weeks along though. Thank G-d I didn't have to go to the ER!!

Texas law is clear about what “abortion” means, and it’s not a natural miscarriage.

No it doesn't. The Texas laws are so vague that the Drs are afraid of giving needed care because it isn't clear what is an abortion is or is not. Plus, these Drs were so nervous they gave very little instructions on what would happen after she took the meds. They sent her home to "expel" it like she was taking a dump. She could have bleed out. This tragic situation was made so more worse because of the little care she received. The state of TX and those Drs show her exactly what her worth was to them. She will remember this he whole life.

@lilypudd You are so full of crap. The baby was confirmed deceased by an ultrasound - a natural miscarriage. Texas abortion law allows miscarriage treatment, which Hamiton’s wife received. Texas law is clear about what “abortion” means, and it’s not a natural miscarriage. Doctors had prescribed his wife two doses of misoprostol, which failed. When a doctor refused to prescribe a third dose, Hamilton blamed pro-life laws. This is nonsensical. They went to a hospital, where doctors said it wasn’t an emergency and offered to schedule a D&C for later. They then gave Hamilton’s wife another, higher dose of misoprostol. Misoprostol isn’t the “abortion pill,” and isn’t regulated like the abortion pill. This entire experience had nothing to do with induced abortion or Texas law. The pain and bleeding Hamilton’s wife experienced delivering a dead child at home after miscarriage is the same pain and bleeding that women who take the abortion pill regimen often endure. Alone. This is exactly what happens when a woman is sent home with the abortion pill or has it delivered to her home. Why is this situation presented as an awful thing to do in the case of a natural miscarriage, yet promoted in the case of an induced abortion on a yet-living preborn child? A woman taking the abortion pill regimen at home will have a similar experience to Hamilton’s wife. Yet abortion advocates want women to be able to keep the abortion pill regimen (mifepristone and misoprostol) stocked in their medicine cabinet, order it online, or get it via a telehealth appointment in which they don’t undergo a medical exam before taking the drugs.

@lilypudd The baby was confirmed deceased by an ultrasound - a natural miscarriage. Texas abortion law allows miscarriage treatment, which Hamiton’s wife received. It is unclear why Hamilton didn’t ask the doctors why they wouldn’t carry out a D&C, but he does appear to have made the assumption that this was a denial of care based on pro-life laws - perhaps this assumption is a result of the media spin that women are being denied miscarriage care when they aren’t. Hamilton’s wife was never denied care and never turned away. After emergency center doctors - not OB/GYNs - confirmed that the baby no longer had a heartbeat, they allegedly prescribed misoprostol to Hamilton’s wife, which CBS said it confirmed via the wife’s medical records. Misoprostol has various medical uses, including as a miscarriage treatment. (It is also the second drug used in the abortion pill regimen.) It causes contractions which expel the baby’s body. In other words, doctors prescribed a miscarriage treatment to Hamilton’s wife on her first visit to Surepoint Emergency Center.

Just speaking the honest truth. Regardless of where you are politically is very sad and disgusting when the news takes your story this to push it towards a political side. There are people that deal with very saddening things in life. How to use that as ammo for your political side and Views I find to be disgusting.

Listen the hospital was negligent if they are saying they cant perform an operation that ON THE BOOKS is only disallowed when there is a heartbeat. Don’t blame the laws. Blame doctors who don’t do proper research
