Nope. It's the pro-birth position. Once the kid is born it becomes straight up the don't-give-a-fuck-'bout-you-or-your-kid position.
Personally, I think there's a case for reduced or properly-protected sex for those who don't want (more?) children. It's not wrong to think of sex as part of the reproductive process, and to see pregnancy as a product of irresponsible behavior or at least pointless hedonism. And this is coming from a guy who has enough kids and still has sex, and whose wife has had one abortion purely from choice-- it was an event that caused serious self-reflection and a realization that some of our values had put us in a situation that was really unnecessary.
Either way, a kid shouldn't be a life-sentence. A well-established social and health system should treat kids as a national asset. A pregnant girl should be seen as performing a useful and beautiful natural function-- not a morally shamed loser who needs to be made to suffer for her mistake. If the Republicunts want every baby to be born, they need to be willing to provide great health care to the mom, before and after the birth, and to invest in an infrustructure that can deal with problems-- better foster care/adoption systems, etc. THAT would be "pro life."
