Injury to pregnant woman.
A. Injury to [a] pregnant woman consists of a person other than the woman injuring
a pregnant woman in the commission of a felony causing her to suffer a miscarriage or
stillbirth as a result of that injury.
B. As used in this section:
(1)
"miscarriage" means the interruption of the normal development of the

complete expulsion or extraction from a pregnant woman of a product of human
conception; and
(2)
"stillbirth" means the death of a fetus prior to the complete expulsion or
extraction from its mother, irrespective of the duration of pregnancy and which is not an
induced abortion; and death is manifested by the fact that after the expulsion or
extraction the fetus does not breathe spontaneously or show any other evidence of life
such as heart beat, pulsation of the umbilical cord or definite movement of voluntary
muscles.
C. Whoever commits injury to [a] pregnant woman is guilty of a third degree felony
and shall be sentenced pursuant to the provisions of Section 31-18-15 NMSA 1978.
