I've never liked that danger to the mother is always tied to the exception for rape and incest. It muddies the pro-life argument by treating those children as somehow less necessary to save than "normal" children. Children can't be blamed for the evils of their parents and a wrong on the mother doesn't somehow justify wronging her innocent child.
The medical exception makes a lot more sense. As long as doctors aren't intentionally killing the child when less deadly methods could be used to guarantee the mother's health I don't think there's any problem with necessary procedures to save the woman's life that happen to kill the child.
