![]() I expect nothing less than a campaign of misinformation from the misogynistic degenerates who hold office in these places. If you want a real picture for comparison check out this link. The image above is a anti-choice version of an embryo, obviously not a faithful representation of size or appearance. However, when most people think of a heartbeat they don’t think of a 4.3 mm thickening next to a blob they think of something like this… Anti-choice “embryo” I know some have wondered why not use the term embryo, but as it’s the fetal pole that is being measured I think the term “fetal” is technically fine. The fetal pole is between the two markers and is a thickening at the end of the yolk sac (the yolk sac is the circular blob) and contains the earliest ultrasound evidence of cardiac activity. The ultrasound below shows an image at 6 weeks and 1 day. The politicians know exactly what they are doing as a “heartbeat” bills is a way of making a 4 mm thickening next to a yolk sac seem like it is almost ready to walk.įetal cardiac activity can be detected as early at six weeks from the last menstrual period. People who vote for the assholes who write these shit shows know them as “heartbeat bills” not because they follow them as they groan through committee, but because that is how they read or hear about them in the news. If they refuse to use the correct terminology the press should correct them. If politicians want to play doctor they should be using medical terms. It’s bad enough that these bills exist, but the press needs to do a better job of calling them what they are. Ohio is the latest state to attempt to pass a medically illiterate abortion “heartbeat” bill.
