A fetus technically is a human with most of the parts missing, so is a heart transplant or a strand of fallen out hair.
In practice though, during the usual period where abortion can happen a fetus is not much more human than a load of semen. Okay, it's technically diploid, but still just a bunch of cells.
Refusing an abortion for the life of the "child" in the first few months is like refusing a heart transplant for the wellbeing of your original heart.
i meant a fetus is not just a human with a bunch of parts missing. there are other differences to go with that, like being way smaller and needing another person's body to survive.
edit: for example, a fetus isn't just an adult's legs, while in the post, the "truck fetus" is the equivalent of that
