I mean why should anybody else (husband or family) decide on one's life?
Apart from what is shown in tv - mahaan bahu giving up her life for the happiness of her husband's family, in actual a woman might not want to die for her unborn child/ fetus.
As we know there are some indian families who would torture or even kill their daughter in law for dowry or for being childless or for giving birth to a girl. In that case of a doctor ask this question to a family of this kind they would sure choose the child over her bahu. And this will be wrong if the bahu wants to live. 😕
