Nobody has a baby for the baby's sake. Having a child is always a "selfish" action, whether it is just because you have that overwhelming urge to give birth, hold and raise your own child, sharing that, perhaps, with the man you love and, possibly live with (or you need to supply the heir to the throne or a title). It's a pretty atavistic thing, so criticising this woman as selfish is fairly silly.
