I am actually going through something similar right now. I am pregnant with my second child and they found a blood clot in my uterus. There is a possibility that this blood clot could cause a uterine rupture and if this happens, they would have no choice but to take the baby. I am over 19 weeks pregnant a uterine rupture could kill me and the baby, the baby would have a very, very small chance of surviving, but it would still be more of a chance than leaving him in the womb. If they end up having to take him before 24 weeks, he won't be considered "viable" and if he doesn't survive, it would be considered a partial birth abortion. This is a very tough situation, but I wouldn't consider for a second not trying everything to save his life and my life, since I have a 16 month at home. If something does happen and he doesn't survive, would I consider myself a murderer? No, because I would have done what was necessary to try and save us both.
