My mother has three children but had four pregnancies. She unfortunately can't give birth naturally and needed C-sections. The complications that come with C-sections get greater each time and doctors (at least at the time) heavily recommended against more than three C-sections.

She had to terminate her third pregnancy because the fetus didn't develop properly and the babies spine wasn't connected. He would have lived for maybe 30 seconds before dying an incredibly painful death if brought to term. My youngest sibling wouldn't be here if she needed to bring that baby to full term.

Overturning Roe v Wade is already putting thousands in similar situations or worse, like the examples brought up in John Oliver's segment.

You don't oppose murder. You support suffering.
