Well, some laws consider it double murder if a pregnant woman and her unborn baby are killed. Apparently, the baby only counts as another person, if the mother doesn't want to get rid of him or her.
There is also an issue of pre-birth child endangerment. How can a mother be charged for harming her baby if she's doing something.. say drinking while pregnant... if it isn't a baby or a person yet? (note that I am not condoning drinking while pregnant, but you can't have it both ways).
