Oh, but she had sex with the boyfriend and then the rapist within days so it was just maybe a rapist baby.

Later they find a birthmark and decide that it must be the now husband's baby. Then they for some reason decide to stay in the past instead of going someplace where there is hygene and indoor plumbing.

To be fair they did try to go back with the kid but the stones spit then back out in the same time.

Claire even offered to give her an abortion if she wanted to (a DIY one but I mean she literally managed to perform complex surgeries and singlehandedly invented penicillin, so by the show's logic it would have worked and been perfectly safe) but Brianna refused because abortion is bad I guess 🤷‍♀️

And, yeah, she could have at least gone back to the 20th century so she could give birth without a massive risk of death, but nope.

The show really didn't adapt how all the characters are deeply religious in the books. Bree is a practicing catholic who grew up in 50s/60s Boston, of course she'd think that abortion is bad.
