The pro-life movement is totally misguided in pursuing this approach.
I know women who've had abortions. (We all do, of course, but I actually know a few who've talked to me about it.)
Not one of them doubted that they were aborting a living child. Every one of them could imagine how that child looked like. The bottom line was that they were unready to have the child and saw the guilt and grief associated with abortion as less burdensome than carrying a pregnancy to term (and enduring the associated public ignominy) and then either having a baby and dealing with single parenthood and a recalcitrant or absent father, or giving up a child for adoption and spending a lifetime wondering about that child and whether s/he would come back and disrupt her life.
It is THOSE factors and considerations which the pro-life movement must address. It must remove, entirely, the shame and discomfort which attends a single woman being pregnant. It must assure these women that they won't be burdened by raising a child, and that a woman giving up her child has an absolute right to elect a completely zero paperwork, zero chance of reunion, adoption.
If the pro-choice movement can't or won't do that, it will make no progress against abortion, because it simply won't address the demand. And as long as there is demand, there will always be supply. (And given that abortion will certainly remain legal in places in the U.S. if Roe is overturned, and remain legal in most places in the "First World" outside of the U.S. no matter what happens in the U.S., the supply will actually be legal and largely unimpeded.)

Pro-Abortion. Sorry, the word is MURDER.
NOTICE to all POLITICIANS who campaign on PRO-ABORTION platform. TELL THE TRUTH. PRO-MURDER platform.
Know why Abortion is kept legal?
As part of the ONE NATION, ONE WORLD, ONE KING plan, there are just too damn many mouths to feed, and there will be many many more than our agriculture can support.
To allow the RULING CLASS to keep eating, there need to be cuts out on the playing field.
SO, the government needed you to get used to accepting MURDER of PREBORNS. Because they are planning to have it be NO CHOICE ABORTION, instead of PRO-CHOICE.
Don't think I am right. It's already in practice in China and other countries. FEMALE PREBORNS HAVE HIGHEST PRIORITY FOR BEING MURDERED. Isn't that nice, all you women?

>>>>I think with images like this, we will soon be able to convince more people, including politicains, judges and expectant moms that a living baby is in there.
"It's a hollywood trick", "Staging and Lighting"....You have heard it before.
>>>>Laws should be passed that each mother going in for an abortion see a sonagram like that.
That one is a touchy one.
I would be MORE supportive of preventive medicine rather than the controversary that can arise from the above suggestion.
Let's get this back in the schools where it belongs. Kids should see this as part of the Health Class adolescence and puberty coverage FIRST. Then revisited in biology.

I'm not sure, that's a good question for a scientist, post 90 is very lifelike, maybe physicist can add more info.

It's worth pointing out that only about 10% of abortions are done after 12 weeks - about 60% are done at or before 8-9 weeks, and about 88% are done at or before 12 weeks. While those pictures of the babies are cool, they aren't really relevant to the overwhelming majority of the abortions done in the US.

We have crisis pregnancy centers who do that every day. They will even raise the child if need be.
And, Most states of Safe-Haven Laws where a mom can drop off their child, no questions asked, to any hospital, police dept. etc. It's worked out well in the states which promote the program.
