Maybe.  And if that's the case it will have to be adjusted.  Until that magical time in fantasy land it is 22 weeks.  Both of my children were born at 26 weeks and a few days.  Trust me.  Its not much earlier than that.

Many have been short-changed by their Biology teacher.

At conception; it's not really that complicated.

Now we can spend hours (see thread as proof) as to what arbitrary qualifiers we can place on it.

Except that even then the egg hasn't attached to the woman. It has just as much chance of being passed on as becoming a human at that point.

I agree too. A bunch of men telling women they don't know what is best for themselves and their fetus.
