A writer who witnessed women having prostaglandin abortions (where labor is induced) recalled:
I asked to see the fetus in it 24th week of development. “No way,” said the midwife, forbiddingly. “I’ve had enough young nurses fainting on me at the sight of a late abortion without you creating a nuisance by passing out.”
