A French study of 2,837 births - the first to investigate the link between terminations and extremely premature births - found that mothers who had previously had an abortion were 1.7 times more likely to give birth to a baby at less than 28 weeks' gestation.

It would be fascinating to compare premature birth statistics with abortion statistics, which I tried to do, but getting those statisitics altogher in one place is pretty difficult.
