Ah right I get you. Yeah I
think the 24 week limit is for any reason. Though its not always as easy to get an abortion as people think (quite how some people manage to get multiple ones I dont know). Its not quite just going to the docs and saying you want one. You need 2 docs to agree with you that it is the right thing for you and the fetus. You are also 'supposed' to get proper counselling beforehand to make sure you arent doing it for the wrong reasons, or arent going to regret it immediately, though I know this doesnt always happen.
Not many abortions are carried out after 13 weeks though anyway. As I said earlier, it seems quite self regulating. Possibly because its a much different method getting a later abortion than an early one.
