This then leaves us the gray area of the probabilities of a mother surviving to deliver the baby. It is a known fact that pregnancy is hazardous and carries risk to the lady's health. With this in mind, she has accepted the risks and must protect the child, even at the cost of her own life. People should be careful when a doctor recomends artificially ending a pregnancy by abortion. I would never recommend an abortion.

Becoming pregnant does not mean a woman has accepted that she will carry that child to term
NO MATTER WHAT.
Accepting the risks can be as simple of a process as I know some women get really sick during pregnancy. I hope that doesn't happen to me but if it does then I am going to do everything in my power to make sure I stay alive. That's an acceptance of risk that doesn't involve a woman having to protect the unborn
NO MATTER WHAT.
