So the State may bar a pregnant woman from smoking, presumably out of concern over fetal health, but may not protect fetal health by restricting abortion?

If such legislation were enacted, some women who smoke no doubt would react by aborting their unborn children, rather than giving up smoking. What kind of legislative incentive is that?
