A Baton Rouge mother has a week to make an unthinkable decision - carry her baby to term even though she says doctors tell her it will not survive or find another state where she can have an abortion.

“It’s hard knowing that ... you know I’m carrying it to bury it...you know what I’m saying,” asked Nancy Davis who is 13 weeks pregnant with her second child.

Davis got her first ultrasound at Woman’s Hospital when she was 10 weeks pregnant. She and her boyfriend were excited to welcome their new baby, but soon learned the pregnancy would not go the way they planned.

“It was an abnormal ultrasound, and they noticed the top of the baby’s head was missing and the skull was missing, the top of the skull was missing,” Davis explained.

Davis says her baby was diagnosed with acrania. A rare and fatal condition, where the baby’s skull fails to form in the womb. According to health experts, babies with this condition only survive minutes to hours after birth. But because Davis’s life was not in danger and the baby’s condition does not fall under Louisiana Department of Health’s list of qualifying conditions, she was denied an abortion. Unsure about what to do, Davis is faced with a tough decision. Either carry the baby to term, or cross state lines to get an abortion.

2. The magical mystery of a sick and suffering fetal life

Is so much more important than the life of any mother.

Because this is what their Christian god wants. A suffering quickly dying baby. A panic ridden tortured mother. This is what their magical mystery super Daddy in the sky demands. A sick and dead baby, a suffering psychologically damaged mother makes for a happy Christian god.

Christians are really sick.

🤦🏾‍♀️🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾🖕🏾
Her baby has no skull, this is literally a no brainer no pun intended.
I hope she mails her diagnosis, and photos of the fetus the fetus to the Supreme Court justices who are making her carry this baby to turn unnecessarily.

And just because her life isn't an immediate danger, Doesn't mean it something can't go wrong at the birth.
Every single pregnancy we women choose to put our life on the line to bring babies into this world.

The notion that her life isn't on the line is stupid as fuck. Simply being pregnant, can be life threatening.
Which is why the decision to have a baby or not should always Ever only was supposed to be The birthing parents decision.

like this happens to a Republican senator or congress persons wife or daughter so they can experience this horrible pain that everyday Americans experience. Maybe then they will understand. Won’t hold my breath.
