Amazing New Ultrasound Shows First-Ever Pictures of Unborn at 12 Weeks 'Walking' in the womb
London, England June 28, 2004 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Professor Stuart Campbell at London's Create Health Clinic has perfected a technique which allows for the capture of 3-D records of foetal movements in the womb. Professor Campbell says that his new technique, ". . . has been able to show for the first time that the unborn baby engages in complex behaviour from an early stage of its development."
Doctor Campbell has been able to capture many images of foetal behaviour, including a twelve week old foetus 'walking' in the womb, rubbing his/her eyes and yawning. These recordings disprove several previous held beliefs about foetal incapacities.
Speaking about these new recordings John Smeaton, National Director of England's Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC), said: "These pictures are a wonderful reminder of the fact that the unborn child is a living human being. These pictures are of babies as young as 12 weeks' gestation, the age at which a large percentage of abortions are carried out in this country. Tragically, unborn children such as these are killed at a rate of one every three minutes."
