Research Confirms Unborn Learning About Outside World
February 24, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) - New research funded by Pampers has confirmed that the unborn are actively learning about the outside world.
The study group found that from at least 25 weeks, the unborn can recognize their mother's voice, and can react to taste, touch, and sound, as reported by Ireland On Line.

Science Reveals Unborn can Dream, Smell, Hear, Remember Events and Feel Pain
ROME, May 17, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Zenit news reported Friday an interview with Italian neonatal specialist Dr. Carlo Bellieni, who wrote the book Dawn of the I: Pain, Memory, Desire, Dream of the Fetus. The partial-birth abortion ban trials have brought to fore the question of the humanity of the unborn, specifically their ability to feel pain. Bellieni has worked for years in the Department of Neonatal Intensive Therapy of the Le Scotte University Polyclinic of Siena, where he has studied the issue of fetal suffering.
When asked by Zenit, "Does the fetus feel pain?" Bellieni replies: "Indeed." He also describes the advanced development of a baby at an age legal to be killed by abortionists, "Today, we know that the fetus inside the maternal womb perceives scents and tastes, hears sounds, and remembers them after birth." Bellieni illustrates that a "fetus, at 30 weeks of gestation, is able to dream. All these characteristics allow us to appreciate the human dimensions."
The neonatal specialist emphasizes that the scientific evidence for the humanity of the unborn is "immense. We cannot understand how it can be thought that it becomes a person at a certain point, perhaps when coming out of the uterus. From the physical point of view, at the birth very little really changes: Air enters the lungs, the arrival of blood from the placenta is interrupted, the type of circulation of blood in the heart changes, and not much more," he explains. "As I often say, only blind faith in magic arts or some strange divinity can lead one to think that there is a 'human' quality leap at a given moment -- certainly not science." He concludes, ". . .I think one should say 'enough' to that anti-scientific attitude that regards prenatal life as a second-class life. And the paradox is that instead the Church is accused of retarding progress. In reality, the Church has an attitude of protection of health."

BRITISH STUDY SHOWS UNBORN ARE 'CONSCIOUS BEFORE 24 WEEKS'
"If a mollusc can be attributed with being sentient ... we should be very cautious."
OXFORD, March 10, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A leading British scientist has found new evidence that unborn babies develop a "conscious mind" before 24 weeks -- the upper limit for legal abortion in the U.K.
Baroness Greenfield, a professor of neurology at Oxford University, said: "Is the foetus conscious? The answer is yes, but up to a point. ... Given that we can't prove consciousness or not, we should be very cautious about being too gung ho and assuming something is not conscious. We should err on the side of caution."
Her words add weight to a Daily Telegraph newspaper poll last year, which found many neurologists are also concerned that the unborn can feel pain in the womb before 24 weeks. However, their preferred solution was to anaesthetize the unborn before abortion.
"The Home Office [Britain's domestic affairs department, which includes justice] has legislation that applies to a mammal and they have now extended it to the octopus, a mollusc, because it can learn. ... If a mollusc can be attributed with being sentient, and now has Home Office protection, then my own view is that we should be very cautious after making assumptions [about the foetus]," she told the British Fertility Society last week.

How long before the Pampers boycott starts?
What for? Aborted babies wouldn't need Pampers, therefore the 'boycott' started in 1973 .... /sarcasm off
How long before the Pampers boycott starts? >>
the way the mean-spirited, baby-killing, divisive, feminazis work I'd say within a couple of weeks. They don't want to make satan angry.
When my youngest daughter was carrying her baby, every time I saw her I'd rub her tummy and say, "Hello, Sweetheart, it's your grandma who loves you". I was there when she was born and on the scale in the delivery room. I said, "Hello, Sweetheart, it's your grandma who loves you", and she turned her little head toward me and opened her eyes. What a thrilling and blessed moment that was for me! She'd listened to me saying that to her inuterine all those months, and now she could respond! God is good, nez pas?
Research also shows that 1 American baby in 3 learn that the outside world wants to kill them.

sad but true
And for even more sarcasm, the pro-abortion cabal will poo-poo this report commissioned by Pampers as just another marketing propaganda campaign so that greedy big corporation P&G can sell more Pampers ..... watch and see!
My daughter is expecting any day now. She plays classical music for her little guy every night. He's very active and she is very uncomfortable, but the music calms so she can get a little sleep.
When she was pregnant with her daughter she read to her all the time. Now reading is my granddaughter's favorite pasttime.
When my baby was born, the nurse had him on the warmer cleaning himand he naturally was crying like a banshee. I went over and put my hand on his chest and said "It's ok, Jackie, daddy's here".
He immediately stopped crying and I was a little shocked. The nurse said he recognizes your voice and feels safe now.
Man, there never was a greater feeling.
for later reading....
"from at least 25 weeks"
So, then, the pictures of the baby in abject terror while facing the pincers of abortion in utero should not be surprising, either. Man, talk about blood on your hands.
Some people might be angry that Pampers funded this research.
Sooooo ?? Let 'em be angry. They're angry already, and have been since 1973. They probably will always be angry. It isn't as if these pro-abortion people would be buying Pampers in the first place, so any 'boycott' that they would launch wouldn't amount to a hill of beans in the baby care product market, since they wouldn't need any such product anyway due to aborting their baby. /shrug
If the pro-abort ppl raise a public stink about this then it'll just make them look even more foolish than they already are ... and let the show begin ....
I'll bring the Popcorn :)

Like they should be angry that Planned Parenthood is in the schools (and attempting to muscle their way into Private and Catholic schools that take vouchers or any small assistance from the state), teaching sex education. This is the lib agenda of privacy, let us into your home to indoctinate your kids, you don't know what to do; But keep out of our bedrooms and feel free to use your tax dollars for our convenience... because we're too dumb to use those 50 brands of birth control we push before the fact. sarc> I say feminist is the wrong word... there's no female in them.
