My wife got a prenatal MRI as part of a scientific study, so I got to see my kid’s MRI face. It’s truly one of the ugliest pictures of him in existence
one of
…oh dear.
Can confirm.
fUcK yOu IT’S MY FUCKIN’ BABY
HOW IS THIS NOT COMMON KNOWLEDGE??? I’ve already had my kids and got a vasectomy. It would be so good to have photos like these hanging on the walls for when my boys bring home partners.
Yeah you don’t do an MRI without reasons, thats probably why (very safe but less so compared to ultrasound). Also you get the live images with ultrasound I don’t think that’s standard with those big MRI systems.
There’s no danger for an mri unless you’ve had major surgery involving metal inplants. There’s no ionizing radiation so there should be no risks for the fetus.
Cost and scarcity are big limiting factors for mri though. Mri machines are massive permanent installations that cost in the millions. They are already busy with people who need diagnostics of specific conditions. Putting every expectant mother in one would lead to absurd wait times. Whereas doctors offices can have multiple little ultrasound machines on carts that are easy to quickly acquire imagining as part of routine visits.
Exactly. MRI machine is a big, expensive, in-demand thing. Ultrasound is cheap, quick and easy.
Though tbf I think this meme demonstrates that we need to lower the cost of MRIs.
So more dangerous than ultrasound. US is probably the safest thing there is.
There are a couple other dangers (metal particles in the eye, idiots bringing metal things with them…) but also it’s not covering the same thing as us. Also more expensive etc etc.
So you know those laws in some states where women need to be shown an ultrasound of the fetus before getting an abortion? Let’s switch those to an MRI.
Ok, ok, MRI machines are expensive, there would be a long waiting list, and it’s still unnecessary. But I’d laugh my ass off.
I usually can’t tell what’s going on in ultrasound photos. This seems much more effective at proving there’s a baby in there
Aww what a cutie.
Everything is funnier with googly eyes.
You think adults are prettier?
Cast it into the fire!
NSFW? This is hilarious!

This is really making me rethink my stance on Abortion tbh.
There doesn’t seem to be an indication of how far along this is. An embryo turns into a fetus at 10 weeks. Stupid healthline says the brain left and right halves of the brain don’t develop until the third trimester. At that point abortion is reserved for severe birth defects and such.
That’s a bad reason. This is WAY better!
