1. What they CALL 6 weeks along is ACTUALLY only 4 weeks along!

Couldn't our side USE this simple fact to at least buy a little time and win a little help for these women? It has now been PROVEN that ovulation occurs about 2 weeks AFTER the first day of the previous menstruation. So a woman IS NOT 6 weeks pregnant when the Anti-Choice people SAY she is! Couldn't our lawyers start lawsuits that use this simple fact to DEFEND women accused of having abortions beyond 6 weeks when they actually had the abortions BEFORE the ACTUAL 6 weeks after conception?
