Everyone, including all those who have legalized abortion, realize there is a line at which after that point the baby has rights independent of the mother.

Some use "viability" as the line. Alabama uses "heartbeat" as the line. But regardless, everyone realizes that any justification for the woman to be able to terminate the pregnancy decreases with every day that the embryo develops.
