They aren't technically living yet. Not as a person lives. You are only taking away the right to grow, or become a living thing. But since they aren't really living yet you are not taking away their life. They can't live outside the womb at that point, so they are not living as a person lives. Therefore their "right to life" doesn't trump the rights a woman has to her body.
