Did You Know ?

Did You Know ?

In the fourth week, the embryonic heart starts beating. The neural tube, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, forms. At this point, a woman has likely only been aware of her pregnancy for one week.

Did You Know ?

In the seventh week after conception, networks of neurons produce brain waves that have been recorded as early as 6 ½ weeks after conception. The embryo spontaneously moves his arms, hands, and legs, and may even hiccup. The embryo’s heart now has all four chambers.

Did You Know ?

By the seventeenth and eighteenth week after gestation, the fetus shows a clear response to pain in multiple studies, and at least one brain pathway is mature enough to create a perception of pain. The fetus also practices breathing, crying, and breastfeeding in the womb. The fetal heart has beat over 20 million times and circulates about 55 quarts of blood per day.

Did You Know ?

In the eighth month of pregnancy the fetal brain is ready to learn! At 32 weeks after conception, neurons are creating 40,000 new connections, called synapses, every second! With repeated exposures, the fetus can learn flavors, nursery rhymes, songs, and even words that she will recognize after birth!

Abortion Reporting: Florida (2025)

Florida publishes some of its abortion reporting tables on the state’s Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) website. The full report was provided to the Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI) in February 2026. The data provided to CLI showed that brick-and-mortar abortions reported in the state decreased significantly from 2024 to 2025. The data published by the state does not include the number of abortions obtained by Florida residents out of state or the number of self-managed abortions performed by women outside of the healthcare system. The report also does not contain the total number of mail-order abortion drugs obtained by Florida residents prescribed by licensed abortion providers in other states.

Fact Sheet: State Funding of Planned Parenthood in Response to Federal Defunding

The 2025 Federal Budget Reconciliation Act imposed a one-year prohibition on Medicaid reimbursements to certain organizations that provide abortion services. In response, several states have undertaken measures to replace the withdrawn federal support with state appropriations and alternative funding mechanisms.

Funding the Nation’s Largest Abortion Business: An Investigation into Public and Private Support of Planned Parenthood

This study discloses the publicly available external funding sources for Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. and its affiliates from 2016-2025, primarily focused on the years between 2019-2025. Identified funding sources encompass government sources, sources of government-facilitated funding, and lesser-known sources. This research demonstrates that Planned Parenthood prioritizes abortion access above all else.
