It's not as if it's the first time she's shall we say been a little peculiar?
She seems to have some fear of pregnancy, perhaps child birth? She certainly doesn't seem maternal.
I can't imagine the pain of child birth, but to put yourself through an abortion at such a late stage?
Why? Unless you're ill? Horrid.

Also, the pain of childbirth is often said to be worse in a still birth if it WAS a stillbirth-a baby will naturally TRY to be born, it will work its way down the birth canal. A dead one won't.
An abortion inducing drug is quite different to a labour inducing one!The former usually has a first stage dose that stops the foetus from thriving, then a second one to make the body give birth to it.

Would also suggest that her husband ( who is apparently standing by her through this) gets himself some new specs or starts taking a lot more notice of what's going on, can only think that they didn't have a very close relationship if he missed that baby bump.

I agree, regards killing the baby. A dead baby was found in Bradford around the same time or slightly before it became knowledge-can only assume the police have dismissed any connection.
And yes, if I developed a baby bump I would be rather concerned if a husband did not notice. Maybe she told him she'd eaten too many pies recently...
