The phrase “spontaneous abortion” is not pro-choice propaganda.

January 20, 2022/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

“Spontaneous abortion” is the medical term for a miscarriage. Many people have expressed confusion and hurt regarding this phrase, believing that it’s trying to equivocate between a miscarriage and an elective abortion or that it’s suggesting a woman gets an abortion casually. As someone who has had two miscarriages, I understand the gravity and sensitivity […]

How advances in perinatal palliative care show the value of preborn and newborn children

January 10, 2022/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Research, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

A recent Canadian research article provides recommendations on medications for managing symptoms in seriously ill babies who are receiving palliative care outside the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).1 Beyond providing technical guidance, this study casts light on the value of these tiny babies, their capacity for pain, and their essentially human need for connection and […]

Getting an ultrasound the morning the Texas Heartbeat Law went into effect

December 6, 2021/0 Comments/in Biology, Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

I’ve long wanted four children. I have a 6-year-old daughter, a 4-year-old daughter, and a 2-year-old son. My son was originally a twin, but we lost his sibling in the first trimester. I grieved (and still grieve), but I also knew that pregnancies with multiples often have problems, and I was not afraid to try […]

Investigating miscarriages would be cruel, wasteful, and destructive.

April 30, 2021/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss /by Monica Snyder

Sometimes pro-choice people claim that outlawing abortion would mean the state will investigate every miscarriage as potential murder. Pro-lifers counter that natural death (miscarriage) is not equivalent to purposeful killing (abortion). This reply is obviously true, but it doesn’t really address the concern. At minimum, early miscarriage and medication-induced abortion look physiologically the same. If […]

The importance of being a parent when children won’t live long after birth

April 16, 2021/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Research, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

We recently published overviews of what perinatal hospice entails and state laws regarding patient notification of perinatal hospice options.

When Should States Enact Perinatal Hospice Notification Laws?

March 26, 2021/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Research, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

In a recent Note in the Washington University Law Review, author Ashley Flakus examines when, if at all, it is appropriate for the state to require pregnant women be told about perinatal hospice. (Click here for a general overview perinatal hospice services.) While Flakus is obviously pro-choice, she makes some valid points about abortion, perinatal […]

A Pro-Life Introduction to Perinatal Hospice

March 24, 2021/0 Comments/in Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

What is Perinatal Hospice? Unless you or a loved one have utilized the services of a perinatal hospice program, you likely didn’t even know such a thing existed. Hospice, as we know, is for dying people… so why would we be contemplating such a system for a newly born baby? Especially in a first-world country, […]
