Not related to you, but, I wonder why a person...who thinks a fetus is a person..would not take a knife to that person in the womb, but as soon as they fall out... start hacking them up to serve a fetish?
All I know is a person I care about was carrying a child which died before birth. Don't really give a fuck what anyone else wants to call what she was carrying. The phrase "carrying a child" in standard usage fits to a T.
