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!

Andrea Mrozek

Program Director, Cardus Family

Andrea Mrozek is a writer, researcher, editor and media spokeswoman, who is interested in winsome public square dialogue and public policy research on themes that result in flourishing families. Currently, she is Program Director of Cardus Family, an Ottawa, Canada-based think tank dedicated to the renewal of civil society in North America.

Prior to joining Cardus, she was the Executive Director at the Institute of Marriage and Family Canada where she wrote and spoke about marriage, child care, women’s issues and how families affect the economy, and vice versa. Her opinion pieces have appeared in newspapers across Canada and she’s frequently a guest on TV and radio shows.

She is the founder of ProWomanProLife.org, Canada’s only pro-life website exclusively written by women. Her ultimate, long term goal is to create a Canada where demand for abortions decreases until there’s none left, not because it was forced upon anyone but because that is what women choose.

Born in Toronto, Andrea has a Master of Arts in History from the University of Toronto. She lives with her husband in Ottawa, Canada.

Canada’s Supreme Court Strikes Down Existing Criminal Prohibition on Assisted Suicide

In a decision today with serious international ramifications, Canada’s highest court has overturned an absolute ban on assisted suicide/euthanasia and has given Parliament one year to create a "stringently limited, carefully monitored system of exceptions." The decision was unanimous, 9-0, and it should be viewed as a victory for advocates of assisted suicide and euthanasia.

There’s a Life at the Heart of the Matter

There’s some irony in the passing away of Dr. Henry Morgentaler.  Regrettably, Morgentaler, whose name will forever be connected with opening Canada up to abortion on demand, cannot be celebrated. Making abortion mainstream is something few can celebrate.
