The definition of pregnancy was changed when understanding was developed of what was actually happening after fertilization. Please, no one is better at using the language to suit their agenda euphemistically and with emotional appeal than the pro-life camp. Examples are the term "pro-life" itself, going on to "innocent child in the womb", "inconvenience", "murderer", "baby-killer", and so on, ad infinitum.
