Do you have a citation for that statement? The reverse is true - most abortions performed because of severe fetal abnormalities are performed after 20 weeks. This is because it is very difficult to diagnose a severe abnormality such as diaphragmatic hernia, anencephaly, etc. with any certainty prior to 20 weeks. The organs are just appearing in their final-like form at the 20 week mark, so trying to see organ abnormalities prior to this point is largely guesswork.
Wrong sir, very few late term abortions are performed for medical reasons.
