Section 26-23B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes all of the following findings:
(1) Pain receptors (nociceptors) are present throughout the unborn child's entire body by
no later than 16 weeks after fertilization and nerves link these receptors to the brain's
thalamus and subcortical plate by no later than 20 weeks. (2) By eight weeks after fertilization,
the unborn child reacts to touch. After 20 weeks, the unborn child reacts to stimuli that
would be recognized as painful if applied to an adult human, for example by recoiling. (3)
For the purposes of surgery on unborn children, fetal anesthesia is routinely administered
and is associated with a decrease in stress hormones compared to their level when painful
stimuli is applied without such anesthesia. (4) In the unborn child, application of such painful
stimuli is associated with significant increases in stress hormones known as the stress response.
(5) Subjection to such painful stimuli is associated with long-term...
