Zeitgueist posted:As a reminder, a third trimester abortion is almost always being done because of serious health threat to the mother, and extremely hard to have done because the lack of providers. If anyone is interested in the how and why behind third trimester abortions, I highly recommend tracking down a copy of After Tiller. http://aftertillermovie.com for a preview. There are *4* doctors in the entire US that perform third trimester abortions. Four.

McAlister posted:They haven't walked it back far enough. They take the word transvaginal out then write bills requiring the presentation of images that can't be gotten any other way. Scott Walker is pushing one as we type. That's an old article from 2013. Nothing has changed in Wisconsin at least as far as ultrasounds go. Wisconsin law currently does not require a transvaginal ultrasound. At the clinic I escort at, they only use transvaginal if deemed medically necessary -- very early pregnancy, morbid obesity, or "anatomical variants" in the uterus. Something to note is that we consider an ultrasound a medically necessary part of the procedure. However, we do oppose the woman being forced to view it without her express consent.
