If having a baby is dangerous to the mother's health, she should be able to get an abortion no matter what. In other situations, I understand your guys' perspective (imagining a baby dying is really, really sad), but I do think there should always be a choice.

A pregnant woman is a person, not just a container for a baby. And she wants what's best for both her and the baby. She doesn't want the baby to grow up in a terrible situation. She doesn't want to die having a baby. She doesn't want other people to dictate whether or not she reproduces. Having a baby affects her mental health, too, and how those in her environment could treat her, whether or not she'd have time to earn a living while caring for the baby, etc. And if having a baby makes her life infinitely more difficult and she still wants the baby (and keeps it), the baby could grown up in a bad living situation.
