In this case, when she had ample time to abort the pregnancy before it became viable, and didn't choose to do so until in inconvenienced her fashion, my reasoning is that the baby (and yes, this was a baby) did not deserve to die for vanity's sake. She should've given birth and put the baby up for adoption if she didn't want it. There's a reason third trimester pregnancies were illegal even before Roe was overturned. In the third trimester you're no longer dealing with an amorphous clump of cells, which anti-women fanatics ridiculously argue should overrule a woman's bodily autonomy. You're dealing with a person.
