imo, Abortion should be legal till the average of when it can survive on its own, anything less arbitrary and you are claiming a fetus that develops faster than average is alive and its fine for it to die because it has a function you consider life early

If it’s based in autonomy, I can at least agree that it sucks either way, and picking a random date doesn’t make it any worse it just makes the decision have legal basis

Doctors generally say that about 21 weeks is when a baby can survive outside of the womb (potentially). After 21 weeks, doctors will put more effort into trying to save the infant if complications happened during the pregnancy (my mom miscarried at 28 weeks and she was told she was so close)

I’m OK putting abortion up until 21 weeks with the caveat that access to abortion should be completely available and supported up until that point, so people who want to make that choice can do it well before they hit the point of no return

I also believe that DNC operations should not be illegal at any point in time then after 21 weeks if it’s going to save the mother
