If that would be her only child, she improves her remarketability and quality of prospective mates by not having the child (including by putting up for adoption, etc). There is motivation for her to find an escape route.
If that would have been the man's only child, her action of aborting is literally scrubbing what was left of him out of existence. From the perspective of the man's parents, that is devastating (especially if they poorly chose to just have one child).
Another possibility is that the woman conceived the child extramaritally and wanted to avoid complication of potential long-term fallout.

If you do it out of convenience, you have just committed the WORST form of murder defined in the Bible. Murder of the innocent for personal gain. Getting forgiveness for that is going to be TOUGH. It's possible. I imagine a STEEP penance though. Your WORKS follow you regardless of your salvation from hellfire. LOT of "Christians" don't understand that.
Interestingly she just SAVED that poor soul (perhaps) from living a possible crappy life with her AND reunited it with its DAD in Heaven (possibly). Depending on whether conception qualifies as born of water (woman) or not. I think it's possible that the BEST souls are spared a long mortal life (not fun for MOST folks) by early death.

She could have given the child to a family member or put her up for adoption. Using the excuse of profound grief is just that, an excuse, imho.
