Born Alive Babies

I just read a post which mentioned that PP has been harvesting babies' body parts even after the babies have been 'born alive'. I realize that the post is registering the egregious act of what doctors do in those clinics---that this field of harvest is a living human being. Yet isn't the plain meaning of our words the subtle implication that before passing beyond the birth canal the baby is not alive? And isn't the baby alive for even the nine months following the conception?
