A Pro-Life View at a Pro-Choicers "Thoughts on Abortion"

Amanda authored a blog post regarding her "Thoughts on Abortion". 
One of the biggest misunderstandings regarding pro-choice advocates is that people think we are advocating for everyone to get an abortion every time someone gets pregnant.
No Amanda, we don't.  Advocating the death of even one prenatal human being makes you a pro-choice advocate. 
It is so easy to get pregnant and sex is such a strong instinct that is difficult to expect circumstances to be perfect.
While some women are extremely fertile, it is not easy for other women to get pregnant.  Many pass on their most fertile years, instead opting to endure the emotional, physical, and financial torture of infertility treatment later on. Circumstances are never perfect. Yet women abort their babies, and wait for that magical time of perfection.  The unique babies that were lost, will not be regenerated.  They are gone forever.
At conception, though the fetus may be "alive" per se, it is hardly a human.  After all, cells are alive, and that is essentially what it is. If someone chooses not to get pregnant and loses the egg through menstruation, is that not an idea similar to this concept of abortion and preventing life, etc?
Actually, it's very much a human, it even has it's own unique DNA. Skin cells don't have that.  An egg lost through menstruation doesn't have that.  The egg has the woman's DNA only, it is not a new human being.
If people are so disturbed by this, then perhaps they should stop consuming all animal products (like eggs -baby chickens, anyone?), never kill a bug, never take antibiotics, and, in fact, should not even live at all considering all the organisms and bacteria our bodies naturally kill.
Most chicken eggs sold commercially are not fertilized, and none of them are human.  Justifying killing a human embryo by using the life of bugs and bacteria, is so, well, prochoice.  Your priorities are astounding.
