It depends on where the murder is committed as well as how, why, and by what method. Murder has different degrees in some but not all jurisdictions and sentences can range from probation to the death penalty but usually somewhere in between. In some areas a 1st degree murder conviction is a mandatory life without the possibility of parole sentence.

No. Homicide is the killing of one person by another. A fetus is not legally a person, and so does not count as a second homicide if the mother is killed. Of course, that doesn't mean that the judge can't impose a more severe sentence in such a case, if he decides that the situation warrants it.
