I think that, at least at the end, Snape wanted LV finished more than 
he wanted to protect Harry. If his intention was only to protect Lily's 
child at all costs, why would he go along with DD's plan, which was 
supposed to lead to Harry's death? Snape didn't know that Harry might 
survive, right? If he wanted nothing more than to protect Harry, he 
should have kidnapped him, modified his memory, changed his appearance 
and moved him to Australia or even farther away right after he found 
out about the plan :-). JMO, of course.
