When I look at those scans, it shows me what I have always believed to be the case. Even at that early stage, there is a human child. Totally dependent on its mother, but no less alive for that.

i completely agree with you towny. it brings a new element into the debate about when life actually begins. looking at the footage, it shows the baby using the womb as a trampoline (thats how the reporter described it) so it would bring into question the claim that lifes began sooner than was first thought. maybe
