You understand that, if it is carried through to birth, any defects as a result of intentional usage of such substances that would bring risk to the fetus would indeed be the fault of the mother?

Your logic doesn't hold up because it takes no consideration of the fact that the thing will become an entity with legal rights if it isn't terminated.

That's just the natural extent of the pro-abortion position that the primary concern should be the on-going consent of the mother to carry the offspring and that society can not place restrictions on what people can do with their bodies.

The offspring will develop into their own legal entity if they aren't killed, but if it is okay to kill them because the mother's consent and bodily autonomy should not be restricted by society, then it follows that she should be able to do other things to her body that consequently negatively impact her offspring. Because the offspring apparently doesn't have any rights or expectations while its inside her.
