My point is women who die in childbirth did not know they were going to die in childbirth. The doctors didn't know. It is sadly a risk of having a child. Thankfully we live in a modern era where it is relatively safe to have a baby.

Riley,
If it makes you feel better to talk down to people that is fine.
I was asking the question based on the Abortion issue. All of your examples deal with miscarriage type pregnency complications where the child doesn't develop or sustain life.
The one expection was the hipbone issue. Surely you know with your great knowledge of "women's medical issues" that they have C-section births to solve that problem. Or maybe you don't have the slightest clue.
I was asking a serious question and looking for serious answers. I have done research and have not found a single disease or cause where the child is healthy and sustaining life in which there is no way for the mother and child to live. Please explain to me what it is and I will gladly change my stance on that portion of the abortion debate.

If the fetus is non life sustaining it is not an abortion. It is a surgical procedure to remove a life threatening cluster of cells from the woman.

I am simply arguing agaist abortion. I thought with the topic of the thread that was implied. I am sorry if that did not come across in my post.

We can argue the level of importance of the life but it is still a life. The life of male sperm is measured in minutes, the life of the female egg is measured in weeks

If the fetus is dead it is not an abortion.

Very convenient. Following your logic, the living egg and the living sperm immediatly die when joined together.

even in the face of the overwhelming facts to the contrary.

I simply looked up the disease on the internet at WebMD and read that the fetus is not life sustaining.
