If the personhood laws pass any where women would have to go down to the police station for the prenatal care. That would be to make sure they are being good and not doing anything that would effect the person they are carrying. Gosh they would have to put a police unit in the obgyn unit to monitor activities. We would have the pregnancy Gestapo.

Expressions such as "Pregnancy Police" or "Full Term Fanatics" are considered derogatory.

You make a good point. However I mean to be as derogatory and dismissive as possible. Care less what these jerks think.
