There's been some misunderstandings about IDX (Intact Dilation and Extraction) and the main one is that it's happening to a healthy fetus when it's viable. It's not. This is a procedure done on a dead or seriously damaged fetus that is not viable or will survive outside the womb (even when fully grown) or when the mother is so sick she can not push the dead/damaged fetus out. Getting the head out can be difficult if it's late in the pregnancy and certainly no reason why a woman should die, which is what will happen if the fetus can't come out. If the fetus is damaged and not viable or dead they will induce a heart attack first so the fetus is not alive when aborted. Doing this will also save the woman from having to go through a c-section, a big operation with many risks. If she already is ill from cancer etc, a big operation can cause her more serious harm.

What does it mean if a woman is G3P2-0-2?

G3P2-0-2 The G is the number of pregnancies the woman has had, so she has been pregnant 3 times. The 2 is how many times she has given birth, so she has given birth 2 times. The 0 is number of miscarriage or abortions, so she has had 0 miscarriages or abortions. Indicating she is currently pregnant because if she has been pregnant 3 times, given birth twice, but had 0 miscarriages/abortions - then there is one child yet to be accounted for, so she is currently pregnant. The last 2 is the number of living children she has.
