The Myth “It’s not a baby, it’s a clump of cells”

The Truth From the moment of conception, the moment that the man’s sperm unites with the woman’s egg, a new human life begins - with new DNA, unique to that child.

Here are some more facts you might not know about children in the womb:

• By day 21, the baby’s heart is already beating, pumping blood throughout the body
• By day 28, the baby’s hands and legs are already forming
• By day 35, the baby’s mouth, ears, and nose are already formed
• As early as day 40, brain waves can be detected
• By day 42, the baby’s skeleton is formed, and his or her brain is already controlling muscle and organ movements

These facts show clearly that it’s a baby developing in the womb - he’s not just a clump of cells. What this means is that every abortion cuts off the life of a human being.
