Free Limited Ultrasound Exams
More than 90% of women considering an abortion choose life for their babies after having an ultrasound
Community Pregnancy Clinics understands the vital role ultrasounds play when a woman is considering an abortion. The ultrasound exam gives women a chance to see their babies and hear the heartbeat. The pregnancy becomes real, and so does the life they're carrying. Additionally, ultrasounds help provide answers to the following questions:
- Is the pregnancy located where it should be (in the uterus not in the fallopian tube)?
- Approximately how far along in the pregnancy is the mother?
- Do we see what we would expect to see in a healthy early pregnancy? (The miscarriage rate in early pregnancy is about 1 in 5.)
Ultrasounds are so important in the decision-making process that many states have even started to require them by law. Florida law (CS/HB1127) requires that women be allowed to see their baby on ultrasound prior to an abortion. We strongly recommend that women at risk of choosing an abortion have this critical exam. And thanks to the generosity of friends and supporters like you, these life-saving exams are 100% free to the women who come to our clinics.
