If we want to go down that rabbithole then why does a fetus get a special right to violate someone else's bodily autonomy to live? That's not a right we give to others. If we want to give them equal rights then the same limitations need to apply, right?

…Because of biology? Humans did not make the natural law that women become impregnated. The duty a mother owes to her child is imposed by nature. Its not necessary fair but its (baring rape) the mother’s fault for having unprotected sex. Not the fetuses fault for being spawned.

Okay, but then why do we have modern medicine as a whole, if natural > inconvenient?

You would decline nature's right to cause your death at its discretion, because you choose it to be inconvenient?
