The potential difficulty here is that the couple was married prior to her coming to the US and U.S.C.I.S. may think that she came to the US with the intention of never going back. On the other hand, good things in your friend's favor for arguing that she did not try to circumvent regular US immigration procedures of waiting overseas could be that she was not petitioned for permanent residence prior to coming to the country (if that is true) , an intervening event occurred that made her reluctant to go back home (the pregnancy), and if she had the 10 year visa previously and not just for this trip. (Kindly note that I assume that you mean that she has a B visa instead of a D visa. The latter type of visa is for crewman such as a flight attendant and such individuals are not eligible to adjust status in the U. S.)
