So it is wrong to rip the arms and legs off a baby and let her bleed to death if the mother is unhappy to be pregnant but it is OK to rip the arms and legs off a baby and let her bleed to death if her parents are related or if her dad is a rapist? I'd venture that No medical procedure should have as its objective to kill someone. My opinion as to life of the mother is that in the relatively rare horrible, train wreck type situations the doctor's job is to save as many lives as possible. Example 1. PG woman has cancer. Dr says radiation may hurt your baby so let us rip his arms and legs off and let him bleed to death I'd say wrong. Example 2. Baby in Fallopian tube about to burst, mom and baby will die unless tube with baby is removed and baby will die. Remove tube with the purpose to save mom's life. I'd say very sad but justified.

An ectopic pregnancy is not a viable one and often the child is dead before the diagnosis is even made.

Pro lifers need to stop using this situation as an example because it is not an abortion. Let’s be medically factual in our discussion
