Babies Born Alive Survey
5.4.3 Born with signs of life
Live birth following a termination of pregnancy is an uncommon outcome. If a baby is born with signs of life, provide care appropriate to the individual clinical circumstances and in accordance with best practice guidelines.
According to data from Queensland Health, almost one baby per week is born alive in Queensland after an abortion procedure. A recent Queensland Parliamentary Inquiry has revealed babies surviving up to five hours without medical care.

This is not about reproductive rights this is about human rights.
Good vs Evil
All lives deserve to be treated with the best care for the best chance of survival. I’ve met children born at 22 weeks. It’s all murder.
Are there any studies that indicate why women and girls are requesting/having abortions?

This is murder pure and simple.
Actually, infanticide.
I think many are using abortion as an alternative method of birth control. It is sickening.
Exactly.
I have meet adult’s who were born at 22 weeks gestation …(2)
Does AHPRA conduct reviews on Abortion Drs 🤔.
Will look into it.
It is disgusting, someone would adopt these children.
No child should suffer and die in pain
Exactly – so inhumane and a disgusting disregard for life. The line keeps shifting for those who support abortion. First they try to convince us early abortion is merely cells…. Suddenly it’s now ok to kill viable, fully developed babies …. I am sickened
This is against the Bible. This is an act of the evil one. How can one let a baby die. This is so inhumane.
As a midwife myself I know babies are born alive any it can be from minutes to hours that they live in pain and this needs to change. Additionally, more and more late term terminations are being done for social reasons at the same gestations of many babies I’ve helped deliver and looked after.
Thank you for letting us know what is going on behind closed doors so awful.
Education and birth control is cheaper and safer than an abortion. Why does a mother who has the ability to prevent a pregnancy have more rights than a baby who is innocent but can still feel pain of death.
God sees life from the moment of conception.
Jeremiah 1:4-5
Isaiah 49:1b
Psalm 139
Yes indeed
Truth !
Rigghtttttt. So 👍
This murder by medicos is outrageous
Doctors promise to do no harm well murder is the ultimate harm. How do they live with themselves?
All babies born alive after an attempt to murder them is a reprehensible crime. Others have been arrested, tried and found guilty and spend time in jail for murder.
Each baby born alive is a true miracle of God! And should be treated as they are! A living being! To do nothing to to comit murder and an utter discrase by anyone who sits by to let such an innocent live suffer and die. These miracle baby’s would change the lives of hundreds of couples that can not have children of their own but willing to nurture those that are not wanted by their own parents with no cost to The mothers trying to get rid of them. It is pure evil that humans are willing to let innocent Children die at a another humans request just because she doesn’t wasnt the responsibility her actions. Each child is precious regardless of where and who they come from or how they are born. They are born and to do nothing is to kill them.
The adoption process needs to be made easier for pregnant women to give up their children. It should be easier to put up your unborn child for adoption than to have an abortion. The one preserves life the other kills.
A mother/parent who authorizes the abortion of a pregnancy should not have the right to dictate the outcome of the baby born alive as they have abandoned all rights to the child.
An abandoned living baby born as a result of abortion is akin to an abandoned baby left at a church/orphanage door where care and dignity of life is upheld. Aren’t medical facilities where care and dignity of life are also upheld?
So many people who want to be parents and aren’t able to conceive, would love the opportunity to adopt a new born. These are mini people that need us to fight for them.
I agree with this suggestion where the mother’s health is not in danger from the pregnancy. It may inconvenience her for a few months, but the baby can then be raised and cared for by someone who would love the child but can’t conceive herself.
Tell the young the difference between HUMAN MATING and SEX.
No other blood animal mates out of season and they know nothing about sex.
I submitted a thoughtful comment on this issue at the end of August that hasn’t yet been posted. I’m wondering why? Several people have stated that adoption of these babies is the way forward. It provides for the child the life, love & nurturing they require plus allowing them to fulfill their full potential. My comment was from the perspective of an adoptee from the late 1960’s. Adoption works. I think my comments would open people up to see how well. Please seek my earlier submission & post it so that others can reflect on my input & decide for themselves how to view it. It was not contentious.
Please make the changes quickly, to help these babies who are living, breathing, Australian citizens.
As Senator Roberts has said “this is murder why don’t the police do their job”.
If the issue really was about a ‘woman’s body’ we would be suggesting that for a period of months a woman had two hearts, two brains, four kidneys, two livers, two nervous systems etc. Clearly this is nonsense bordering on insanity. It is not a woman’s body, it is the body of a baby growing inside the woman, a baby guilty of nothing but existence and condemned to die because it is an inconvenience. Exceptions exist, rarely, but for the most part it is discriminate killing of human life submerged under a muddy blanket of euphemisms.
I believe babies who survive abortion should be treated as normal people
The measure of a society is determined by the way it treats its most vulnerable citizens.
How did our society get to this point, to deny a living breathing baby the same care we would give to any other human?
A baby is a human being and should have full human rights no matter what the circumstances.
Society is going downhill fast when it cannot and will not look after its most vulnerable.

Clearly our country’s morals (and the rest of the world) are declining at an alarming rate as our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is rejected in every sphere of life.
It is to be expected, as the Bible predicts, but the speed and depth of this decline is breathtaking.
Thank you, ACL, for standing for truth and justice. Your courage and perseverance are outstanding.
The whole system needs an overhaul. Social workers also need education/instructions not to encourage abortions but provide positive alternatives.
Many women with complex pregnancies often have this suggestion given.
I was one such young mum. My eldest now 14yo daughter is a heart kid. So complex the same mix of abnormalities has never been seen before or again. We found out at 31 weeks. Back then too late for an abortion. Suggested to give no medical intervention as it would be kinder than putting her through surgery to try fix the issues. I was so conflicted trying to work out the best way to love my unborn daughter. Thank God for my church family, family and young husband who said that if she made it through the birth we would give her every chance of life possible. She came in a huge rush and has held onto life with Zest and a stubborn determination ever since. To look at her you would never know. I thank God for all my miracle children each and every day. I hope my story will be able to encourage others. Sometimes we need less judgement and more compassion.
