    it’s important to ensure they don’t administer some medications to pregnant women.

    I’m being a bit of a broken record, but they administer pregnancy tests in those cases.

          Maybe to you. But is not “my body my choice” all about letting the woman decide that?

          I would sacrifise my life anytime if it would help my unborn kid survive.

              Women have been faced with the choice of saving themselves or their soon-to-be-born child. OP is saying they would opt for the latter. That would be an edge-case, but it can happen.

              Punched that question into ChatGPT to see what it spit out. Yep, only a thing in extreme edge cases. It’s almost always, “Baby’s gonna die anyway, save yourself.” But there were some rare instances that weren’t impossible.

                I’m aware - I’ve been cut open on a surgery table in order to save my child.

                We’re talking about in the case of a patient coming in with a gunshot wound. Doctors are typically going to focus on saving the person in front of them before thinking of saving the clump of cells inside of the patient.
