@Oma_Trisha fetal development is tracked by medical personnel from the last day of your last period, so at 15 days, the zygote may not even have attached to the uterine wall yet. people who don't know what they are talking about shouldn't be writing regulations on it, it just makes them look even more stupid.

If you're in Washington DC today and you get a moment, stop by the Vietnam War Memorial on the National Mall.

There are more than 58,000 names on that wall, about 20,000 of which died so Richard Nixon could be president. THAT was the price we paid for Henry Kissinger's Nobel Peace Prize.
