See, again, you are comparing a fetus to a
developed human being.
At what point does a lump of cells that results from daddy's sperm and mommy's egg become a 'full human'? It takes
time. How much time could be argued. I think being conscious and feeling pain are rather good prerequisites, and those don't occur prior to 20-24th week of development. Until that lump possesses those traits it may as well have been a potato that you throw away. Do you mourn your sperm when you rub one out? Of course not.
