Some animals are pretty much viable the moment they are born, whereas it seemed to me that human babies could do with another 3-4 months in the womb at least (though of course then they couldn't be delivered).
I agree with your assessment though, that could be a logical choice to draw the line at.
At conception doesn't make any sense to me, it's a cell with no self awareness or nervous system, it can't suffer. I don't see any moral issue with a morning after pill.
Once that point has been crossed, it becomes a discussion about where doing harm starts.
