As I think I understand your argument:

 

We both agree activity is a good thing.

We both agree that activity should be limited during pregnancy.

We disagree as to just where the limitation should lay.

 

Our analytical process seems the same. Where we differ is simply in how risk adverse we are and on how we value the benefit.

 

I agree it is a personal calculation (choice) based on an individual’s personal values. I would call it a good choice if (in this case) she accurately makes the calculation and a bad choice if she does not. Do you agree?

The other day I was listening to a radio interview with a guy who was saying that kids these days seem to be having a genuine problem differentiating opinions and facts. He said the phrase "That's my opinion" is running amok. Then he related a story where some students saw a debate, and afterward one said "That wasn't a debate- there was no yelling! They didn't get excited!"

 

Stating your opinion forcefully and passionately is not the same as making an argument.
