There is no medical or scientific case for a fetus to be called a parasite.
What class of parasite is the fetus?
1) The protozoa is a single celled parasite (and a cluster of cells is certainly outside of that class.
2) Helminths are worms (and a fetus was only ever going to develop into a human and a not a worm.)
3) Ectoparasites like mosquitoes and ticks that attach themselves to the skin’s surface (that does not describe a fetus.)
4) A parasitic infection (again.. not a fetus)
