This we can definitely agree on. I remember talking about this in another thread once. I feel the limit should be around 10 weeks for just a chosen abortion (possibly less, most people know they are pregnant by 6 weeks) except in the case of medical reasons. Downs test gets given around the 12-14 week mark along with test for other serious abnormalities.
IIRC one of the points against lowering the limit was that some people do not even know they are pregnant til late on, but those people are really few and far between. Not sure what could be done about that as no doubt some would play on that as a reason to get an abortion later if they changed their mind about keeping it...
