Researchers suggest 287,289 live births would have happened in Texas from April to December 2022 if the abortion ban wasn’t enacted. During this time, observed births were at 297,088, a difference of 9,799.
Before the ban, Texas’ abortion rule was contingent on whether the pregnancy was over 22 weeks. Now, with the end of Roe v. Wade giving Senate Bill 8 a leg to stand on, abortions are not allowed once cardiac activity is detected in a fetus.
“There has been a lot of speculation about how restrictive abortion policies will affect the number of babies being born. This research adds valuable information to that discussion,” said Dr. Alison Gemmill, assistant professor in the Bloomberg School’s Department of Population, Family and Reproductive Health and one of the study’s lead authors.
