I haven’t had much contact with women?! I am a woman, with lots of friends who are women. And every woman I know who has had an abortion, obviously wouldn’t have had one if they were on birth control. Your comments about the women this happens to, made no sense. A fertilized egg can be flushed out every month, while a woman is trying to get pregnant. She does not have to be drinking, or have ever been on birth control in her life. It just happens. Why do you think it takes couples months or sometimes years to conceive? Not every fertilized egg implants, nothing you listed has to “contribute to it”. If you actually read my post I was not speaking of women who have miscarriages, I am talking of women mourning every time they get their period, not many mourn the possible fertilized egg that was flushed out. They just get disappointed that another month has come and gone without a pregnancy. Perhaps you are not the best educator after all. And I am well aware a spontaneous abortion is a miscarriage, I worded it that way in case others were not aware, I was giving 2 words with the same definition. Like someone saying “HIV virus, or Aids”, adding Aids, to clarify, as this is how it may be known to the person they are speaking to. Not everyone calls a miscarriage, a spontaneous abortion. I know about funerals for miscarried babies, my cousin had one for his twins, and a priest from another church spoke of one he did last month for a young couple. Again, I was speaking of a fertilized egg, not a miscarried baby.
I suggest you go back and read my other posts and what you call a fertilized egg really is a human being.
Read this if you have a hard time believing ME:
…O’Rahilly’s statement that the use of terms such as “ovum” and “egg”-which would include** the term “fertilized egg”-is scientifically incorrect, has no objective correlate in
reality, and is therefore very misleading**-especially in these present discussions. Thus
these terms themselves would qualify as “scientific” myths. The commonly used term,
"fertilized egg," is especially very misleading, since there is really no longer an egg
(or oocyte) once fertilization has begun. What is being called a “fertilized egg” is not an
egg of any sort; it is a human being.
…Ronan O’Rahilly,5 the human embryologist who developed the classic Carnegie stages of human embryological development. He also sits on the international board of Nomina
Embryologica (which determines the correct terminology to be used in human embryology
textbooks internationally):

More truth to read here:
Life begins at fertilization, not implantation—
…
There is much scientific proof that a unique human being is created after fertilization
of the egg by the sperm.
