Would dinking alcohol heavily during pregnancy be considered by a doctor to perfom a medically necessary abortion at 18 weeks, so that insurance would cover the procedure

[JudyKayTee]

No, not my insurance company. What does the DOCTOR say about the medical necessity?

If this were true everyone who wanted an abortion would claim to be a heavy drinker.

I have seen women charged criminally for abusing their bodies during pregnancy and causing harm to the child - where are you?

[nursemary]

Ummm... NO!! Doing that only causes harm to the fetus and could have a baby born with fetal alcohol syndrome... some moms go to jail for abusing their bodies while pregnant.

No, it would not be considered a medical reason for an abortion.
