If a woman gets a child after marriage, is all her sins forgiven?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org
Answer

In principle, when a person performs virtuous deeds, his/her minor sins are
forgiven without making Tawbah.

As regards major sins, making Tawbah is necessary. To bear a child is indeed
a very great act of virtue. From the inception of pregnancy till birth, the
woman is in constant Ibaadat (worship) and is being rewarded for every
moment of that time. Therefore, a woman can be optimistic of her minor sins
being forgiven during pregnancy and birth. If Allah wills, He may forgive
the major sins as well without her making Tawbah.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
