Is it just me, or has time really been flying by? I can't believe i only have 12 weeks left. My little man is fastly developing all he needs to survive.
The fist pic was taken in July and the next pic was taken today! WOW!
Ok now on to my depressing but very much needed post: (sorry the spacing messed up on me)
For all of you who know me, i am not a political junky. And just recently, i have come to ABHOR politics. I really honestly cannot believe the choices we have this election for presidents. It really is a bummer. So today's post is about a political issue near and dear to my heart... Proposition 4...
Abortion by definition: An abortion is the termination of a pregnancy by the removal or expulsion of an embryo or fetus from the uterus, resulting in or caused by its death.
I know, i know.. so morbid.. but i feel like i must.
I am 28 weeks pregnant. My baby weighs close to 3 pounds and he is almost 15 inches long from head to toe. Get out a yardstick and see exactly how long that is... that is longer than a loaf of bread. He is getting to be a big boy. He is sleeping and waking at regular intervals, he can open and close his eyes, and he is even starting to have dreams...
Did you know that this Wednesday, i could go into my doctor's appointment and tell them that i would like to terminate my pregnancy and that would not be a problem?
Roe v. Wade centrally held that a mother may abort her pregnancy for any reason, up until the "point at which the fetus becomes ‘viable.’" The Court defined viable as being potentially able to live outside the mother's womb, albeit with artificial aid. Viability usually occurs at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks."
Babies born at 28 weeks have a hard time breathing on their own. Usually they are hooked up to machines for 2 or 3 months until their lungs completely develop. There is a GREAT possibility that my doctor would say that the "fetus" is not viable (meaning that he couldn't survive outside the womb without help) and he could go ahead and tell me that i could get an abortion....
Writing this post makes me sick to my stomach. To think that young girls- like 12 and 13 years of age can go in to a clinic and abort their babies up until 28 weeks is just disgusting. And did you know that they don't even have to get permission from their parents?
If you vote yes on Prop 4- Minors are required to have a waiting period and parental notification before terminating their pregnancies.
Pastor White said its hardly anything... but it is something... I urge you to vote YES on Prop 4
There are many other Jayden's out there that were conceived- not of their choosing... Why should they have to feel the sting of a needle and shake and twitch out of control until they pass on from their short life. Its not fair... its not right....
I must vote my conscience. How about you?

Wow! I did NOT know that they could, or WOULD still abort a baby at 28 weeks. That's sickening, really. I can't imagine a woman carrying her child for 7 months, and then chosing to have it taken away for purely selfish reasons.
P.S. Love the new pic! You are all baby, that's for sure. I will have to sneak down to Fresno for WCC for at least one day just to rub that tummy! ;o)
Amen Sista! You preach it! I totally agree with you!! It is so sad what this world is coming to. So many people would give anything to have a precious baby while others are aborting that beautiful priviledge. So sad.
Ya me and David were talking last night about all this. How can people live with themselves after going through with something like that? Did you know that when they inject the poison into the baby after 20 weeks, you still have to go through with delivery and most of the time the baby is still alive when born? There are stories of moms who heard their baby cry for the very first time, but then 15-20 seconds later... nothing. How can people like that live with themselves? Dont they know that there are others out there who would give anything to have a baby? But people don't want to talk about those stories. They want to tell those stories of ladies who NEED to have abortions for medical reasons. They don't want to talk about the horror stories of abortions that go wrong... and the babies live for hours until they die from the poison...
Awww Breanna such a good post. Abortion is evil and a conscious act of murder. On a happier note, you look gorgeous in the new pic! I have to say you look so very cute every time I see you at church. Jayden's mama is stylin 24/7! I can't wait to see the little ones' outfits. Remember, he's getting his first baby designer jeans from his Auntie Adrianne.
Ya it was a good post, if i should say so myself. Thank you for noticing.. LOL.. and thank you for the compliment. You all are too sweet on here. I love you
