Pre-Term Babies and Abortion

There are entire segments of medicine devoted to saving and protecting preterm babies. Huge resources are dedicated to saving 24 week old infants, for example, just after birth. A baby born at 24 weeks beyond conception may receive the very best medical care to keep it alive and well, sometimes spending months in the hospital under the supervision of men and women who have spent years training in the relevant specialty. Is the physician supposed to be be in a neonatal intensive ward helping a baby who is 24 weeks old one minute and then recommend or perform or otherwise pretend to be neutral about abortion, which is prenatal homicide, the next? Is a physician supposed to be in favor of the entire effort to save one 24 week old, (measured from conception), just after birth, but not be concerned about unjustified homicide with respect to the same infant just prior to birth? If there are entire segments of medicine devoted to saving babies who are in this age group, measured from conception, what exactly is the problem with physicians being generally opposed to homicide with respect to this age group while the babies are in the womb? Does leaving the womb mean that the individual is now a baby? Was it not a baby before? If harming it the moment after it is born is a problem, why is harming it the moment before it is born not a problem? If homicide just after birth is a problem, why is homicide just before birth not a problem? It is very reasonable to insist on consistency here and that is precisely what many physicians are doing when they oppose prenatal homicide.
