Ultrasound in Pregnancy Doesn't Harm Fetus
No effects found in decade-long Australian study
By Ed Edelson
HealthDay Reporter
FRIDAY, Dec. 3 (HealthDayNews) -- Repeated ultrasound examinations during pregnancy have no long-term effect on the growth or mental function of the child, new research finds.

Law could make ultrasound referral illegal for pro-life groups
Albany, New York, May. 27, 2004 (CWNews.com) - A bill before the New York Legislature would make it illegal for crisis pregnancy centers to refer pregnant women for ultrasounds. The bill was first proposed in April, but pro-life groups in New York have just recently make public warnings about it potential effect on their work.
The bill, proposed in the Assembly as AB10829 and in the Senate as SB6776, would only allow an ultrasound referral from licensed health care professionals. The putative reasoning behind the bill is to stop so-called "ultrasound boutiques," storefront services that allow women to receive a sonogram of their children, not for a specific medical reason, but for "entertainment" purposes.
LOOKS LIKE PP HAS BEEN HARD AT WORK! ONE STATE TO THE NEXT!
And Illinois claims they don't know anything about these crisis centers??/ PHOOOEY!

I figured we were on the same page. :)
{not for a specific medical reason, but for "entertainment" purposes}
Okay so a medical reason is needed for ultra sounds. I wonder if crisis preganct centers can use term "medical reason" as broadly as pro-aborts use abortions for "health" reasons.

Hey everybody!
How about we either e-mail a talk show, and/or call a talk show and tell folks what's going on in Illinois?!
When you call a talk show, you never know when you will get the mute button and get cut off, because there might be a bunch of other callers behind you, so write down your MOST IMPORTANT point first, and go down the line in order of importance. And don't be afraid to show your sincere passion which we all have; passion makes interesting talk radio.

WELL SAID!!
GREAT POINT!!
"Mulligan said that Planned Parenthood and the Illinois State Medical Society encouraged her to sponsor the legislation because there was a concern about long exposure of fetuses to ultrasound waves".
Goody. Now let's see if Mulligan can manifest the same concern for their exposure to the abortionist's fork, saline solution and vacuum cleaner.
FANTASTIC!
Thanks~~!
Someone should tell the OB/Gyns about this neurological "threat". We saw an ultrasound of our grandson every month before his birth. Frankly, I wonder whether that isn't just to bill the insurance companies for more services, but the doctor obviously didn't feel this was a threat to the baby.
I will assume you have read the legislation so I'll post it here
http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/94/HB/PDF/09400HB2492lv.pdf
Additionally, you should make note the the article in Lancet was based on older ultrsound recording devices. Today's machimes have 6-10 times the tissue penetrating power as the older machines.
If you're willing to potentially effect your child with unknown longterm effects of ultrasound then that's strictly your business.
BTW, I guess GWB was pushing abortion and Planned Parenthood when he signed similiar legislation while governor.
Understandable.
The abortionists have found that when an unsure expectant mother visually sees an image of HER baby it increases her motherly instinct (emotion) and she moves away from selecting abortion and toward carrying the baby to term. The purpose of the legislation is to prevent pro-life groups from offering free ultrasounds to expectant mothers so they won't see what their baby looks like, which is a cute little baby human being, not a blob of tissue.
Even though I am not from Ilinois, here's an e-mail that I wrote to Glenn Beck's producer. It is good to put a catchy subject line to get them to read it.
Please let me know if I should make any changes in this e-mail before I send to others.
Please see post #246 for contact info.
Dear Stu,
Please consider asking Glenn to cover this subject on his radio show.
The hearings in Illinois will begin on Wednesday.
World Magazine did story on how Ultrasounds given in Crisis Pregnancy Centers have helped mothers to choose LIFE! Supplying these Ultrasound machines has been a project of Focus on the Family. Illinois is attempting to STOP this life saving practice!

Planned Parenthood is lobbying like crazy to stop ultrasounds in Illinois to make it become criminal.
Sincerely,
CRAZY "Sun" (just kidding, I didn't sign that.)

Am actually trying to start a non-profit org here that is pro-life but focuses on education of guardianship and end-of-life issues from the pro-life stand... some lobbying, etc..
the site will be educational with news and activism alerts, etc..
