It’s not a baby. It’s a blob. It has no sentience and the mother doesn’t want it in her body. It’s basically a parasite.

No one should be forced to carry a fetus. End of story

If a fetus is a “blob,” so are born babies, children, and adults.

No, those are fully formed individuals that can survive on their own if separated from the mother. The fetus is surviving off it’s mother’s body. Stealing her nutrients. The only thing separating it from fitting the definition of a parasite is the “different species” caveat.
