And it's six weeks from the date of the last period, not six weeks from the date of conception. So six weeks is really three weeks

More like half a week. The average time that women figure out they are pregnant is 5.5 weeks after their last period. Even if they had a few extra weeks, good luck getting scheduling an abortion in that sorry amount of time.

Looking forward to the post-birth support bills they must be looking to pass. /s
