You are absolutely right. We never really think about that either. We are focused on the women experiencing the negative consequences of the overturning of Roe v. Wade rightfully so but men are also going through something as well. These husbands wanted to be the fathers of these children. These husbands are watching Their wives go through something devastating and traumatizing, while they themselves are being traumatized by the event and how difficult it is that they can’t do anything because of the law and they themselves are devastated that the loss of this pregnancy. It’s almost like a second hand or second-degree trauma experience.we really need to consider that as well and that’s yet on one of the reasons why politicians need to accept the pregnancy does not just affect one woman. It affects a woman and the father of the child who is often her husband and any of her other children and their parents and family, families and friends, community, etc. etc. We all experience it in someway.

I fortunately live in WA State too where a woman's right to full reproductive healthcare and bodily autonomy is still protected, however, there still exists a very real threat to all women. If Republicans take control of Congress and secure the Presidency in the next election cycle there is a very real possibility they will legislate and pass a nation wide abortion ban. And considering how far right the Supreme Court is, if a law like that passes, I'm afraid any challenges brought to the highest court in the nation, would be overturned and the ban would be cemented into law. Resulting in every woman in this country being stripped of her rights no matter which state they live in. It's important to keep that in mind. I realize this is all supposition, but these suppositions are grounded in decades of history and political actions by conservatives that point to their willingness to align themselves with a coalition of ultra religious Christian zealots who have openly stated their goal of banning abortion in exchange for votes and political power. None of us women are free until all of us are free. The battle continues wherever you are.

I understand where these ladies are coming from. Even though my kids are alive and here today I can tell you at the end of my pregnancy it was scary. I never told my husband this but with our son the day he stopped moving and kicking me is when I got super scared and that was at the hospital. My son was born still, he was not screaming or moving. I laid on that table just thinking and hoping to hear a little sound. When they cleared his airway and he started screaming the whole world lifted off of my shoulders. The day I went into my ultrasound with my daughter I knew something was wrong because my daughter was not moving as much as she used to. I went in for my stress test and the ultrasound. The tech and the nurse was like don’t pass go don’t stop go right to the hospital. Even though my daughter was born screaming it was a very scary moment because I did not know what was going on they would not tell me. After my daughter was born, I found out she swallowed meconium well in the womb. It is scary for women now because we don’t know what is going to happen. Abort in Latin means miscarry. So if you have a miscarriage then they will but it in medical terms that your body aborted the baby. Miscarriages can happen anytime during pregnancy. It is scary and sad.

Patients should be able to choose what happens to them and deserve the right to give informed consent for any and all treatment!

I'm so glad I don't live in the States. Medieval care in a Western society. Insanity.

You may end up paying for both if they come after you after the fact...insane

Can men should start suing the government for emotional trauma because of what their wives and daughters have to go through and the women start suing the hospitals for medical negligence. I would love a lawyer perspective on this. 🙏🙏🙏♥♥ to these families.

Anyone is welcome to sue a hospital, but it's usually the victims of malpractice who file the lawsuits. Or, if the patient dies, their families / spouses can sue on their behalf.

“I had to go through extreme trauma in order to change my view”

Not only do women and their families lose, but so does our system of health care. As suggested, doctors in those states which limit abortion rights will also limit the doctors who are willing to practice in those states; therefore we all loose!!! How tragic is this?

This should never be a decision from a politician, judge or religious entity, but it should be decided by the woman/family and their medically trained physicians! I don’t believe that the people of Texas have voted on this issue so who made Abbot the arbiter of women’s health needs!

Ok, here's what I hope u women hear loud and clear and EVERY LAWYER available in ur states: U NEED TO SUE UR STATES FOR MEDICAL MALPRACTICE & PRACTICING WITHOUT A MEDICAL LICENSE, bc that's essentially what those sick legislators have done + they rendered ur Dr's irrelevant to interpret medical care for u and determined in their UTTER ARROGANCE to themselves be better Dr's when their backgrounds and certifications were not there in the least to assume that responsibility! CALLING ALL LAW SCHOOLS, PLEASE GO AFTER THIS ATTACK ON MEDICAL LICENSES BEFORE THE MADNESS GROWS!!!

@@apara2005 I suppose u know this because I said something that clearly makes sense, people who try to legislate life and death choices without holding a medical license are routinely sued all over the Nation, it is clearly a definition of unlawful medical malpractice, called practicing medicine without a license or training! Think it thru Mr Wiseguy!

This is horrible. I’m glad that everyone in my family and extended family alone has been able to get a medically necessary abortion without problems minus those who dealt with pro life protestors in the U.S. Almost all were mothers too so the abortion helped them being with their kids and husband. I don’t know what would happen to them had they dealt with strict abortion bans.

Sad

These laws are leaving women with no choice. Looks like we will have to do a pros and cons list or really think hard on whether or not to have a baby because the laws aren't here to protect women.

I am pro life but pro life also means the mother’s lives. How can we put at risk the baby and the mother and if trying to fight for the baby. Do we really think that baby can have a complete life without her mother? There should be exceptions put into place for these abortions. Having an emergency need for a procedure like these women needed should not be deemed an abortion. They are not choosing to have the procedure just to end the pregnancy, this is a life or death situation.

America has completely lost there minds these poor woman

Land of the free eh?

I appreciate these men standing up, but why couldn't you have LISTENED earlier?? Is this what we need, tragedy, just to get people to let women and their doctors make the decisions they NEED to?? All the brain-washing by right-wing politics over decades had led to this. That if you're pro-choice, you're pro-murder. You're treated like a pariah unless you COMPLY. It's sickening. And these women suffered and nearly died. Abortion is health care. Whether a person isn't ready, was raped and doesn't want it, is at high risk or has a horrible fetal anomaly, that is NOT for politicians and religious leaders to decide. All that posturing over decades is leading to tragedy. It's so sad to watch these families go through this. I hope that the lawsuit in Texas forces their Supreme Court to overturn their insanely strict abortion law, and that others follow suit.

Thank god I was born in India, if my life is in danger then I matter more at any point of pregnancy. Religion doesn’t rule over life 🙏

And you want me to vote red?

How can you not change your mind, or at the very least have empathy and see the need for exceptions to protect women who are pregnant with fetuses/ babies with feral anomalies, that means they will either die in the womb or soon after birth? How can people still not advocate for termination in the case of this? So it's ok to put the lives of pregnant women at risk or allow the babies to be born only to then suffer and die immediately or shortly after birth? It's horrendous. I'm pro choice and think all women should have the choice to have full autonomy over their bodies. Even those that are unsure would surely understand the medical necessity for abortion in the cases like these women? I live in the UK and was pleased to see that even the Republic of Ireland changed their abortion laws to allow them throughout the country. Up until very, very recently (up until a few years ago), Irish women would 'take a holiday' in the UK, usually main land England to be able to access abortions. There have been similar stories to these women that were a big part of the action behind changing the laws in Ireland for the better for women. I am really sorry to all the women in the US that can't access healthcare in relation to sexual health, suitable advice on termination or how to access it in states it is allowed or just not have the means to access abortions or health advice in general due to costs, time and/ or unable to just drop everything and travel across the country to access an abortion that way. This change in law and the overturning of Roe Vs Wade is so disgusting and I am so sorry that women and families have all been affected by this. It sets a dangerous precedent of what other rights can be overturned in the future.

That just show the idiots who made change the law didn't think about the consequences of the health that women go through risks of dangerous consequences when women lose the chance to carry baby that is not healthy to survive and put the mother at risk of death

They did think of the consequences - followed by God will provide - God doesn't give anyone more than they can handle.

Pure evil!

Can't believe they used the title "pregnant women" and not "pregnant people" how offensive

"High risk pregnancies" are not happening to the correct married women, husband and wife, families, if all Anti-Abortion families, women, husband and wife, they'd change their minds I'm 100% certain 😂😂😂😂😂

These are mostly middle class women, so yes it’s starting to happen. It’s only been about a year since these laws went into effect and you are just beginning to see the outcomes of these laws.

I believe it has met some of them. So now, they’re sick thru their pelvis and uterus to their knees. SMH…they just looking sick bc they should’ve stepped up. Now their life is at risk & so since they want to be _pro-life._ Let’s understand _pro-life_ will end u with death which is part of life. 🤷🏾‍♀️
