This post could be subtitled, "Living the Lie: How 'Pro-Lifers' Kill Moms by Banning Abortions". Thanks for doing this work.

p.s. I live in Texas, immersed in the blatant cruelty of batshit-crazy 'pro-lifers'. It's a living nightmare.

Thanks Ira. You have my sympathy. I did see a cute protest sign from a pro-choice rally. It said " If My Womb Shot Bullets, You Wouldn't Regulate It".

As a family doc (retired) with a serious interest in women's health and a strong supporter of Nurse Midwifery your article is a fantastic resource. The stats are well organized and I will be using them.

The article certainly underlines how little women are valued in this country

The Midwifery stats in our out of hospital birthing center are incredibly good low C section rate, low prematurity rate etc etc.
