Chill, I'm not, but that's not really relevant here.

People who think it's a fetus and not a baby aren't going to be convinced by you just being upset. If you look at most comments, 7 months vs 1 week is meaningless to anyone who hasn't had a kid.

Spell it out more if you want any chance whatsoever of getting through to anyone who doesn't already agree with you:

Fetuses are viable outside the womb at 24 weeks, roughly 5.5 months. This person could have had an abortion legally and safely at any point during the first 20 weeks of pregnancy, but instead waited 8 weeks further and did it ad-hoc and unsafely.

Do you think people should be forced to donate organs?
