I'd just like to respond to BrokenQuill if I may. What is it exactly that's unsavoury about wanting to have the healthiest child possible? Why should someone feel guilty about that?

People who have pre-planned have done so for a reason. If things don't go to plan then that's precisely enough reason to abort a foetus.
