At least they saved that baby, right?

Except they didn’t.
There is and can be no baby when there is an ectopic pregnancy. The early fetus will never develop into a baby. It is impossible in the case of a nectopic pregnancy because that fetus needs to grow in the uterus, not in a tiny fallopian tube.
Even if you consider the fetus to be a baby already, there is zero value in preventing abortion because that baby cannot live. All it can do is potentially kill its mother before it also dies.
