Doesn't really work - most very premature babies, though capable of surviving outside the womb - tend to have significant problems if born prior to 32 weeks - anything from physical handicaps such as blindness to mental disabilities (anything from slow learning to retardation).

How about people who get pregnant deliver a full term baby and give it up for adoption if they don't want children? Then get sterilized, maybe? Nobody gets killed using this method.
