![]() Recently, innovative scientists discovered that babies can respond to music at a mere 16 weeks gestation – far earlier than previously believed, and just three weeks after the first trimester ends.” “ These ears are preparation for the baby’s ability to respond to sound. “At six weeks, a preborn baby’s ear is already appearing,” Brown continues. A preborn baby’s brainwaves can be measured at six weeks. See the brainwaves for yourself here. At this age the preborn child will display characteristics most would expect to come months later, as Kristi Burton Brown has reported for Live Action:Īt six weeks, a baby will move away if his or her mouth is touched: ‘A light touch to the mouth area causes the embryo to reflexively withdraw its head.’ The Endowment for Human Development has a video of a six-week-old baby responding to touch here. At 22 days post-fertilization or approximately five weeks, the baby’s heart is beating, but that’s not the only thing we know about human life at such a young age. That fact is why the Heartbeat Bill is addressing where science is now. Science is always advancing to keep up with reality. ![]() Wade, these very real humans would have been dismissed as non-viable. In fact, there are registries of the many babies born extremely prematurely who have gone on to live full and healthy lives. READ: Planned Parenthood VP refuses to acknowledge that a heartbeat means a life on Tucker Carlson The original ruling held that abortion was legal until “viability” and yet the ruling said, “Viability is usually placed at about seven months (28 weeks) but may occur earlier, even at 24 weeks.” We know now that a preborn baby is viable much earlier than 7 months. ![]() The most significant issue regarding this bill is that scientific technology has metamorphosed so much since Roe v. The basic science about fetal development leaves no question, regardless of one’s moral or religious views, that life has begun earlier than most even ponder the question. The early structures that will become the eyes and ears are forming. There is movement of rudimentary blood through the main vessels. The placenta has begun to form and is producing some important hormones including hCG. The heart is now beating at a steady rhythm. According to the American Pregnancy Association, at four to five weeks gestation:Īrm and leg buds are visible, but not clearly distinguishable. In fact, in that third week of life, there’s more than a heartbeat that shows the signs of the humanity of the preborn baby. ![]() An abortion in the first trimester is described by former abortionist Dr. A heartbeat is a universal, scientific, non-controversial sign of life. The logic of this bill is simple: if a person’s heart stops, he is declared dead therefore, when a person’s heart begins to beat, there can no longer be a question he is alive, even for those who don’t believe life begins at conception. This scientific reality is the basis of the recent Heartbeat Bill, which is holding a hearing November 1, 2017, before the congressional Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice, a part of the House Judiciary Committee.Īs Live Action has reported, the Heartbeat Protection Act of 2017, dubbed, the “Heartbeat Bill” (HR 490) would ban abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected, usually at about six weeks’ gestation. In fact, recent reports show it might actually occur as early as 16 days. Just 22 days after conception a baby’s heart is beating in utero.
