Yes it is something like that in fact likely a lot more.

than it is to defend the house from an intruder.

yes - guns are only a good idea in movies.
The actual facts say different to the NRA bullshit.

"Two-year-old boy accidentally shoots and kills his pregnant mother with gun left on nightstand ..."

How do they know it was an accident? Undecided

How many two-year-olds pick up toy guns, point them at their parents and pull the trigger saying "bang" or whatever? As far as I know, the child might well have been playing cowboy and accidentally fired a loaded pistol. To think that it was deliberate homicide would speak volumes of your overestimation of a toddler's intent on killing their own mother. It was unintentional, and therefore accidental.

I didn't say anything about it being a deliberate homicide.

Read my post again.

What possible alternative can be made, if the incident was not an accident?

At this stage...
