But they never abort at full term! (Sure sure sure)...abortion at 37 weeks

Again, I was browsing the academic journals when I came upon this article from 1997, about a Dutch study that was trying to calculate how many late-term abortions were performed in the Netherlands per year, in the 1990's.

The pregnancy was terminated at 28 weeks or under in 28% of cases, between 29 and 37 weeks in 64%, and after 37 weeks in 8%. In 85% of late pregnancy terminations, labor was induced by administering prostaglandins intravenously. 80% of the fetuses were stillborn; the live-born infants all died within 24 hours of birth. Extrapolation of these data suggests that about 150 late-pregnancy terminations are performed in the Netherlands each year.

This is Holland, the home of child euthanasia. So not really surprising. Still.

This is "my" record for latest abortion.

Why wouldn't they just let the baby be born naturally? I don't get it. Why the trouble of killing the kid?
