Its the mothers choice, situations happen where that don't want a baby. Even if they don't want it for some unknown reason, its their choice.
The thing is, if its made illegal, I'm sure someone will start performing abortions illegally and not following any rules and health and safety procedures just to make cash, regardless of the mothers safety. Or the coat-hanger will be brought back in again.
This isn't the best source but this is my point.

Self-induced abortion is illegal in most jurisdictions—even where abortion itself is legal—and may present a grave threat to the life of a woman. An unsuccessful attempt to induce such an abortion can also cause lasting damage to the foetus. Presently this is fairly common where abortion is illegal or unavailable.

I think its better on this point alone that it stays legal.
