In portugal the limit for the voluntary interruption of pregnancy is 10 weeks, for me it's an acceptable limit, although I think 8 weeks would suffice.
Late Term abotions should only be carried out for medical reasons (malforamtion, danger for mothers life), or in case of criminal (rape) action.
Of course there are always complletely irresponsible persons who either don't care or don't know better and take the gestation long after these 8-10 week limits before even considering what they'll gonna do, but that's what social care services should be for too.

From a strictly biologcal point of view, it's a hugely disproportunate investment for the female thana is for the male, in time, resources, reproductive cells, life risk, and even in the genes carried to the baby (mitochondrial dna comes from the mother only
) so If there's anyone Who as a right to decide, that someone should be undoubtebly the mother.
