Say an LDS couple get divorced, and right after they split, the woman discovers that she is pregnant with their first.

Does the church counsel of giving the baby up for adoption apply?

This is that situation a relative is in. And she decided to give the baby up.

But I'm wondering if she is going to follow through. She's had the baby, but still has possession of the baby. I wonder if she feels pressure to give it up, with a family already lined up to adopt. Or pressure from church counsel.

Tough situation. I know she really cares about this baby.
