As a father of far more kids than average, there are complications in giving birth, drug reactions, and infections. Been there done that. But needing to abort a child to save the mother??? Sorry. Too many doctors I've talked to say that is a fairy tale and there is nothing so common or severe in 21st century America medical science to justify the "kill the baby to save the mom" view. That is just a democrat political platform and 19th century eugenics nonsense that folks can't move beyond.
