This was the logical and inevitable consequence of conservative attacks on female autonomy. And most people either don’t care, or actively support it.
Even if we all suddenly decided, on a philosophical basis, that life begins at conception, Fetal Personhood laws are still a bad idea. Because as the article notes, 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, naturally. Fetal Personhood laws force governments to treat each one of those as a possible crime, seeking to assign blame, when in reality it is just nature working the way it does.
And, like quite a few laws put in place by fascists, they are unequally applied. There will be certain demographics who are more likely to be investigated for this than others.
