Premature Birth and Survival Calls for a Second Look at Fetus Survial Viability
Amillia Sonja Taylor was born just under 23 weeks and weighing 10 oz Oct. 24, 2006, and is still healthy today. She now weighs 4 lbs and is 15 1/2 in. long. Her survival calls for a second look at the viability of a baby's survival in the womb which is set about 25 weeks, which abortion legislation revolves around.

THATS SO SAD.
WOW.

THATS SO SAD.
BUT I AM GLAD THAT THE BABY LIVED!
THAT MADE ME HAPPY.
this is horrible i cant even begin to try to understand what is going through peoples minds when they even consider abortions... there are many family's out there willing to adopt.... whales have feelings too ♥

o i was recently raped and i am only 10 years old. i am pregnet by my cousin he raped me but i hope you guys r ok
I have to tell you that is so awesome that baby survived. To all those girls out there who do abortion what is wrong with you there is adoption for people who cant have kids. Please reconsider! And to that 10 yr old I know what it is like to be raped for myself and my daughter Please just hang in there it does get better. My prayers and heart go out to you.
someone needs to check out the poster who stated she was 10 yrs. old and raped. Child abuse should be reported.
I am currently expecting and I have been scared to death ever since I found out but I myself feel that abortion is wrong. I just don't understand what that beautiful, innocent, unborn child has done to you so bad that you would have him or her murdered. They can feel pain to. My heart is with you guys and I wish her the best. It is sad that there are some wonderful people in the world who can't have children and would make great parents and that some people who don't want to be parents are selfish enough to murder a unborn baby before giving it a chance at life with some one who will love them and be there sfor them every step of the way!

I am 3 months pregnant and I could never even imagine giving up my baby I am so happy that GOD blessed me with the chance to be a mom and I am glad that my boyfriend is standing beside me with the entire thing. I love my baby and I don't see how anyone could ever do that to a baby. I'm just glad that the baby had the strength to live.
wooww to all the girlsz thatt saiid

I dont believe in abortion either. Im 21 and i clearly know that im not ready for a child because of finacial issues but i am also pregnant with my first child. im scared also but its nothing in this world God cant get us through. he promise to never leave us so for the rest stay strong, keep faith and dont ever stop praying... this exspecially goes out to the 10yr old child...
I am a Pro-Life Labor & Delivery Nurse. What some people are forgetting is that this child's future isn't going to be that of a normal child. This child, being so premature, is going to be complicated with many disorders both short term and long term. I pray for this child and the family.
Thank god that the baby survived
it was obviosly very young from the picture.And god just blessed her with life.And 2 the girl who got raped im ten aswell and i just want u to know that its ok and that remember its not ur fault.
Thank Jesus that baby lived.

I am also a nurse (neonatal icu) and i agree with the l & d nurse- a number of these babies have learning disorders and cerebral palsy (walking with walkers or in a wheelchair). the dr's cannot diagnose cerebral palsy until the baby is able to crawl and possibly walk.
also, i have worked in 6 nicus and have information on many, many others in 2 states and the current limit of viability is around 22 5/7. i have never seen any dr *not* attempt to resuscitate a baby if it was crying and moving (as most babies born around that gestational age are limp, blue and making no attempt at breathing). but, i have never heard of any baby living outside of the womb that was under 22 5/7 weeks. the lungs are simply too immature. even if the dr tried to put the baby on a ventilator, the baby's lungs simply do not work.
Truely to those nurse it doesn't matter what problems as long as God spared its life its for a reason. I just lost my 5 month son in utero 07.16.10 the pain never ends just to know he was gonna live would have over. Joyed me to share life times of moments ill never have always makes me wonder. God bless your sweet baby and keep faith in all you do.
