Research: Mother, preborn child ‘intricately interconnected’ almost instantly

When Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers tell women abortions are “safe,” not only do they discount medical tragedies, but they also neglect to present important medical evidence to women about maternal-fetal attachment. While a woman can choose end her pregnancy, she has no choice in the changes that her brain undergoes from the moment her preborn baby’s life begins. The American College of Pediatricians (ACP) details new research in a medical position paper, revealing the astonishing changes the mother’s brain undergoes from the time she becomes pregnant.

“Positive maternal-child interaction during pregnancy” is part of a three-part series entitled, “The Infant – Mother Connection and Implications for their Future Health.” ACP stresses that the object of the paper is to “[encourage] all health care professionals to promote policies that respect and protect the mother-baby duo with their intricately interconnected systems.” As abortion providers continually attempt to remind the public they are “health care professionals,” they should be acting in accordance with the correct medical research, rather than omitting facts that may lead a woman to choose life.

The paper says (emphasis added):

Pregnant women often joke that they have “mommy brain,” which is why they put their car keys in the refrigerator and the sour cream in the pantry. But this joke has biological grounding, and it’s not a joke at all.

ACP notes:

And these changes in the brain begin virtually overnight:

Baby Development Week by Week

The paper explains that Leiden University researchers conducted pre- and post-pregnancy brain scans on 25 women and found that “Researchers could accurately differentiate scans performed on women who had given birth from those who had not become pregnant by tracking brain changes, and the observed changes persisted at follow up two years later.”

A woman may choose to decide to abort her preborn baby, but abortion does not magically change her altered brain and biological systems. She cannot simply walk into an abortion facility pregnant, walk out not-pregnant, and move on, insisting she unaffected — because biologically, this is impossible. The expressions of that effect may vary, but the brain and body were not created to “make a pregnancy go away” with a giant suction machine. In fact, research says it likely will get worse, as Dr. Priscilla K. Coleman, from Bowling Green State University, reports in a presentation on maternal-fetal attachment, “In contrast to the pain of involuntary loss, which tends to resolve in 2 years, the pain of abortion is inclined to worsen as women learn more about prenatal development and have children.”

Once again, science proves the reality of the preborn baby, and reminds women that even if their health care professionals don’t tell them the truth about the biological effects of abortion, their bodies will do it for them — and it will impact women’s mental and physical health, sometimes for a lifetime.
