Jfem, abortions are not usually performed in the first 40 days. I think they are actually performed in the 12-15 week range.
As to late term abortions (AKA partial birth abortions) its just sick. They stick a rod into a baby’s brain to kill it. If for some reason the baby lives and is delivered, they put the baby on the side to die without any help.
There are cases where Rabbis make exceptions for abortions, but its a heter, not the norm.
I never asked, but I would assume l’halacha, the morning after pill wouldnt be a problem.
