So by this definition, if a child is one week away for its due date, it could still be aborted and thats perfectly fine?

Or could a mother give birth but only let the head out, then smash it with a hammer, and that would be fine to, seeing as its not officially "born" yet?

This is a very slippery slope you walk down.

So if after 3 months a fetus is considered a child, are they counted in the census reports? Do they get a passport yet? Birth Certificate? Christmas Presents? No, because they aren't technically people yet.
So your definition of humanity breaks down to government certification and Christmas presents? I find that depressing.

If a house is being built, 3 months into the construction you dont consider it a full-blow house yet, its a house in construction.
You just compared a living thing to a house.

It takes 9 months to develop a baby, not 3, or else the baby would be out in three months if "mother nature" deemed it sufficient enough time.
So I'll ask you again, by you're definition you are fine with an abortion being ok in 8 3/4 months as long as the child is still in the mother?
