The point when it becomes a baby is the moment in time that initiates the start of the growth!
BEFORE THAT POINT: It never grows - it gets expelled from the womb!

Agreed. I find the pro choice use of words like fetus, and embryo, and zygote in an attempt to dehumanize a human being on about the same level as racists who use words like ni**er, and coon in an attempt to dehumanize blacks.
Embryo, zygote, blastocyst, fetus, newborn, infant, teenager, adolescent, adult, old geezer etc., etc., etc., are nothing more than nouns that we use to describe a human being at some stage of his or her life. At the moment of conception, a zygote is exactly as human as you and I and no amount of growth or development is ever going to make them more human.
