Given that, no "consensus" is possible. The pro-choice side has a supreme court decision on their side. Unless the pro-life movement is willing to compromise to some extent, it will never be able to get enough of America to agree with it to either (a) appoint enough justices to the bench to overturn Wade or (b) get some type of constitutional amendment passed.

Since when is the USSC and arbiter or morality or competent in science? They're all lawyers.

Most people support the banning of late term abortions, favor parental notification in the case of minors accessing abortion services and are opposed to abortion as a method of birth control.
The judiciary is a horse of a different color.
