It depends on a number of circumstances. If she dropped the child off without the intent to return to get the child, that is abandonment. If she dropped the child off for some child care or for a weekend, that would not be abandonment.

I would encourage you to consult with a local family law attorney about the exact facts and circumstances you are concerned about.

Good luck!!
