nice that she took her 3 other kids with her to dump the body of the baby she killed.....

these laws are new but lets look at history. women have gotten pregnant with children they didn't want or couldn't keep since women started getting pregnant..... some of them killed the children, some had illegal abortions, some kept the child and dealt with the fall out, and some left the child where they thought it would be safe. pregnancy and child birth can be emotional and can cause women to need to make tough choices. it does not turn us evil or make us total morons.... she thought clear enough to hide the pregnancy, to hid the birth, to hide the body til she could get rid of it. she was clear minded enough to leave it in a spot where it could be found and saved. she is no different than any other mother who decided to kill her child because it got in the way of what she wanted. she is no better than susan smith who killed her babies because her boy friend didn't want kids and she wanted the boy friend. if Mose's mom could come up with a plan to save her child long before safe haven law then this kid could too. i know nobody on here said her lack of knowledge is a excuse but i have a feeling her lawyer just might.We don't know if she had heard of the safe haven law
I tell you, I just have a hard time understanding it when a woman gives birth and says she had no idea she was pregnant, but I hear it routinely and the woman in this case seems to be claiming it.
I'm not talking about early on in a pregnancy. I had a miscarriage once when I was younger and I had no idea I had been pregnant. It turned out, I had been 10-12 weeks along. I get something like that.
But I have carried two children to term and how do you not know you are 7,8,9 months pregnant? - especially if you have had other children, as the woman in this case had. Just doesn't make a stitch of sense to me.
you are correct.I tell you, I just have a hard time understanding it when a woman gives birth and says she had no idea she was pregnant, but I hear it routinely and the woman in this case seems to be claiming it.

IMO, being attacked (or not) in Washington has absolutely NOTHING to do with the decision to murder your newborn baby...
Thank you!! I feel the same way. I'm 9 months now and I tell you there is NO way on this earth that I would not know I'm pregnant. With all the symptoms you get there is just no way. Especially with that pregnancy being her 4th.. This is my 3rd. She knew.
Now, yes, early in a pregnancy sure, I can understand that. My first pregnancy I was extremely sick but thought it was because I stood out if the freezing rain a few nights before and thought I was catching a bug of some sort. Hubby agreed with me. It took a co-worker to point out that I just could be preggo. I was so sick I had to go home from work but hubby stopped to get a test just in case. Heck, it popped up positive after the 1st minute.
you are correct.
first. i am sorry for the loss u suffered
during the first 12 weeks any mom can tell you its possible to not know. some women will know in a matter of days. their cycle works like a clock and if its off they know.
by 6 months... no way she didnt know.i was fat during while i carried my 3rd child. i still noticed the weight gain. i still noticed no period. i still noticed the heart burn. the morning sickness. the sore breast. the growing breasts. the need to pee every 30 mins. the shortness of breath once the uterus pressed my other organs into my ribs. oh wait maybe my biggest clue... the child moved. unless u can feel nothing from the shoulders down or u are in a coma i dont see how u can not know.

Happy 9 months - prayers and best wishes for a safe birth! :blowkiss:
Yes - early in a first pregnancy I think lots of women are taken unawares!
