I can understand in cases of incest (rare) or rape (possibly) and perhaps if there is a clear critical medical danger to the woman or the baby.

I am very much against it for the many young women that use it as a form of birth control.  That's what the far left advocate for when they argue that a fetus is not a human, even in late-term.

Again, this issue belongs to the states and not the federal government.

I don't understand the exception you would make for rape or incest.  In a case like that, the mother's life is not in danger.  So what about the baby?  Just because a baby results from rape, or incest, is it not still a child?  If you think an unborn baby has rights and should be protected, why would you not protect those babies?  They didn't commit a crime.  They're innocent.
