Gawd forbid that the same blind woman would want an abortion.. I can just see the republicans go batshit insisting she would HAVE TO see the 3D model of the fetus..

I think it's a great idea. If I was a mom, I might want a refund if I got an ugly baby.... :rotflmao:

You know...My mother never saw any of us before we were born and she had 6 of us.. Amazingly all but one of us survived.  It IS possible to have children without first seeing them.. Gawd, I hate having to sit through some woman's photo gallery of her ultrasound pictures of her kids..

Ultrasound is a diagnostic tool, not just a way for parents to see their baby.

Yes, I'm aware of what an ultrasound is used for.. I've had my heart peeked at many times with ultrasounds not to mention my liver and several other internal organs.. They don't usually give me a picture to take home to share with everyone.. They did give me a picture of my blocked artery though..
