Generally speaking, a woman can always have another baby.
However, a baby cannot have another natural mother.
I doubt sincerely Pope Francis would regard the death of a woman lightly, if pregnant and there was a choice between fetus or mother and the woman's life were put last. Pope Francis is a scholar and not a stupid man mired is ideology. He appreciates life, but, not at the expense of another.
Where the decision in a religious context falls is also where the person has their soul in the grace of god. The child is not more innocent or virtuous than the mother.
Original sin (click here) is a condition, not something that people do: It's the normal spiritual and psychological condition of human beings, not their bad thoughts and actions. Even a newborn baby who hasn't done anything at all is damaged by original sin.

Original sin is an Augustine Christian doctrine that says that everyone is born sinful. This means that they are born with a built-in urge to do bad things and to disobey God. It is an important doctrine within the Roman Catholic Church. The concept of Original Sin was explained in depth by St Augustine and formalised as part of Roman Catholic doctrine by the Councils of Trent in the 16th Century.
Original sin is not just this inherited spiritual disease or defect in human nature; it's also the 'condemnation' that goes with that fault.
