Cardiogenesis animation by Dr. Stella Clare Seppings

“Cardiac Development” by Lisa McCabe for OPENPediatrics.

OPENPediatrics is an interactive digital learning platform for healthcare clinicians sponsored by Boston Children’s Hospital.

Embryonic heart pulsation is the earliest proof that the embryo is alive. Cardiac pulsation has been documented in utero by transvaginal scanning as early as 36 days menstrual age (22 days after fertilization), the time when the heart tube starts to beat.

“Through these various channels the early embryonic circulation is established. By the end of the 3rd week the primitive cardiovascular system has been established & the ❤️ has begun to beat so that the blood now circulated.”

-Peter L. Williams, Gray’s Anatomy, 38th ed. Pg 157 ImageImageImageImage
By the end of the 3rd wk, the blood is circulating, and the heart begins to beat, on the 21st or 22nd day. The cardiovascular system is the 1st system to reach a functional state. The embryonic heartbeat can be detected using Doppler ultrasonography during the 4th wk, (6wks LMP). ImageImageImageImage

I think we need a thread of quotes from liberals explaining why Roe v Wade was such a horrible decision…

“A heavy-handed judicial intervention [that] was difficult to justify and appears to have provoked, not resolved, conflict."

-Ruth Bader Ginsburg
"I strongly support a woman's right to choose but Roe vs. Wade was a disaster," “it was the wrong place for the Supreme Court to go,” and “there’s no clear governing constitutional principle in Roe v. Wade.”

-Alan Dershowitz, Constitutional lawyer and Harvard Professor
“One of the most curious things about Roe is that, behind its own verbal smokescreen, the substantive judgment on which it rests is nowhere to be found.”

-Laurence Tribe, Harvard Law School, Lawyer for Al Gore in 2000

I asked a large group of NICU nurses in online forum what they thought about Sotomayor saying only a gross minority of doctors believe fetal pain exists before 24-25 weeks.

Here’s what they said.

Just a little thread on what being short staffed in the NICU is like…

Get to the unit at 0630 (too early to clock in) a few other nurses are there early. Putting my lunch in the fridge when the charge nurse comes in & begs us to clock in early because 3 admits are on the way.
Already minus 8 nurses on a 60 bed unit which means every nurse with stable babies will have 4 patients and the nurses with critical babies will have 3. That’s not safe. Walk to my area and there’s no time to sit for report because 2 babies just arrived at the same time.
Helping night shift stabilize a brand new baby so they can give report &go home. Sit down for report to find out I’ve got a baby I have to get ready for surgery at 0800, another who’s having a procedure on the unit “sometime in the am”, and another who’s getting ready to go home.

In case the pro-choice didn’t realize it, there have been numerous resources for moms and moms-to-be in Texas:

Texas women in need of health care/insurance assistance there is the Texas Medicaid program.

Texas women who don’t qualify for the Texas Medicaid program, but still need health insurance, can get similar coverage through the CHIP Perinatal program.
