When the government count the population - they do not count baby bumps as they do not count.
They are not people yet.
Once a child is born - it would be wrong to kill it as it is then a person. Am I saying kill all children? No.
Women have the right to look after themselves.

Why are they not people? Because you physically can't see them? They are fully functioning, that means they are a person. They can do everything a newborn baby can (within realistic limits obviously).
If they weren't already people then premature babies wouldn't be able to survive, but they do. Would you be happy to kill a premature baby if it wasn't wanted?
Women do have the right to look after themselves, unborn babies also have the right to live.

The stages in which you get an abortion mean that it is not fully grown and its not a person yet. When is your birthday to say how old you are? the day you are born. Not conceived. Thats because you were not a person!! You arent born and then someone is like oh how old are you? Oh well they were unborn for 9 months so eh yeah 10 months old.

Our birthday is when we
legally become a person, not morally. They can function like a human, so why aren't they just because the law says so? There are loads of other ridiculous laws as well.
And the abortion limit is not before they're fully formed at all. There are loads of examples of people born on and around the limit who have grown up perfectly healthy.
