They range from total ban to 24, most are 10 to 12. It is a states issue and we need to keep it there. We need to let state more decisions like this, like setting their marijuana laws.They range from a few at 10 weeks to the UK and others at 24 weeks ON DEMAND

Many on the left claim we are now out of the mainstream with "First world countries" regarding abortion.
I maintain not a single person on the left would like any of these abortion laws in Europe to be the law of the land in the US.
Abortion rules per country[edit]
Almost all European countries offer a time limit in which a pregnant woman can choose to have an abortion on request, without a medical indication. After that time, an abortion cannot be performed anymore on request, and a doctor must confirm a medical necessity.
This list is incomplete; you can help by adding missing items. (July 2022)
Country Time limit for abortion on request Exceptions and remarks Austria three months (= 13 weeks) Later abortions possible in cases of: serious danger for the psychological or physical health of the pregnant woman; probable serious mental or physical disability of the child; the woman got pregnant before the age of 14[19] Belgium 12 Weeks Bulgaria 12 Weeks Croatia 10 Weeks Cyprus 12 Weeks Czech Republic 12 Weeks Denmark 12 Weeks Estonia 11 Weeks Finland 12 Weeks France 14 Weeks Interruption volontaire de grossesse (IVG) has a 14-week limit. The interruption médicale de grossesse(IMG), for medical reasons, is unlimited.
No minimum age in order to request a voluntary abortion (IVG). A pregnant minor needs the consent of her parents (or her legal representative), or she can keep her abortion secret, in which case she needs to be accompanied by an adult person of her choice.[20]
After 14 weeks, an IMG can be carried out for: The continued pregnancy poses a serious danger to the woman; or there is a large probability that the child would be born with serious, incurable disease.[21]Germany 12 Weeks Abortion is legal only if the pregnant woman has been advised by a doctor at least three days before performing the abortion (Bedenkzeit, time for consideration).
A later, medically indicated abortion is possible in cases of: life of the woman is in danger; the physical or psychological health of the pregnant woman could be seriously endangered by not aborting the pregnancy. In such a case, the otherwise mandatory counseling by a doctor is voluntary.[22]
Abortions on request during the first 12 weeks were enacted by East Germany in 1972. West Germany followed suit in 1974, but the Federal Constitutional Court ruled the law unconstitutional because it infringed the right to life of the unborn. A new law in 1976 allowed abortions only when the woman was physically or psychologically in danger; if the child would be born with a severe disability; if carrying out the pregnancy would cause severe social problems for the woman (e.g. poverty) or if the pregnancy was the result of sexual violence. There were no abortions on request. Today's rules, granting the right to non-medical abortions on request, were enacted in 1993.Greece 12 Weeks Hungary 12 Weeks Ireland 12 Weeks Italy 12 Weeks Latvia 12 Weeks Liechtenstein 
Exceptions: if the woman is a victim of sexual violence; if she had been underage during intercourse; if the life of the woman is in serious danger; if carrying out the pregnancy would seriously damage the woman's health[23]
In earlier times (pre-2010), the penal law criminalized abortions abroad if the woman had her residence in Liechtenstein, and the abortion did not follow Liechtenstein's regulations.[24]Lithuania 12 Weeks Luxembourg 12 Weeks Malta Doctors are required to attempt to save both the unborn child and the mother in the event of health complications. Netherlands 24 Weeks Norway 12 Weeks 18 Weeks by abortion council, 22 weeks if compelling reasons, later if grave risk Poland Exceptions: Cases of rape, incest, or when the health of the mother would be in danger Portugal 10 Weeks Romania 14 Weeks Slovakia 12 Weeks Slovenia 10 Weeks Spain 14 Weeks Sweden 18 Weeks Switzerland 12 Weeks Abortions after 12 weeks possible if a doctor confirms that the abortion prevents any kind of serious harm, physical or psychological. An underage woman does not need to inform anybody of her abortion, and does not need to receive consent from her parents or any other person.[25] United Kingdom 24 Weeks

I am nt planning on moving to Europe and I don't plan on my wife or I, having any children here or in Europe. Thanks for your concern, I appreciate it.Every European nation has exceptions after the “upon request” period expires, for the health and life of mother or the fetus. There are no absolute bans after the on request period expires.
Scroll down to Time Limits. Women aren’t bleeding out in hospitals in Europe because they can’t get care.
Mary Ann Glendon’s comparative law study, Abortion and Divorce in Western Law and her subsequent book, Rights Talk: The Impoverishment of Political Discourse. Glendon’s comparative study actually included a third topic: “forms of dependency which are connected with pregnancy, marriage, and child raising.” The topic of dependency has obvious relevance to consideration of intergenerational obligations and the interplay between family responsibility and societal responsibility for addressing dependency needs.Many on the left claim we are now out of the mainstream with "First world countries" regarding abortion.

No lie, you loons want it up till birth.What an absurd cynical lie
Slavery, Jim crow, making it illegal to travel for abortion services...Why do Dems FEAR letting the states decide?
That's a lie.That's quite a difference from the Liberal Ideal of Abortion on demand up to the minute of birth...
Actually yes, if you real the law. Now abortions are legal there in the third trimester. And all that is needed is one doctor to say the "health" of the woman is at risk, not life. And health is not defined.
Your side wouldn't budge, since you had Roe at your back. Compromise could have been reached, but your side didn't want it because you had Roe.
Stupid response. Women don't abort a healthy fetus in the 3rd trimester. It just doesn't happen.
Suppose you’re just throwing shit against the wall hoping something wil stickSuppose they decide they don't want to have children? Then they do. And maybe the 3rd trimester was the first appointment with the abortionist they could make because of their busy schedule? Or they changed their mind about becoming a mother.
BTW, your post is strictly Transphobic. Any lib knows that men, specifically transmen, can bear children too. Bearing children isn't limited to females in 2024.
