הָאִשָּׁה שֶׁהָלַךְ בַּעְלָהּ וְצָרָתָהּ לִמְדִינַת הַיָּם, וּבָאוּ וְאָמְרוּ לָהּ ,,מֵת בַּעְלִיךְ” — לֹא תִנָּשֵׂא וְלֹא תִתְיַבֵּם, עַד שֶׁתֵּדַע שֶׁמָּא מְעֻבֶּרֶת הִיא צָרָתָהּ. הָיְתָה לָהּ חָמוֹת — אֵינָהּ חוֹשֶׁשֶׁת. יָצְתָה מְלֵאָה — חוֹשֶׁשֶׁת. רַבִּי יְהוֹשֻׁעַ אוֹמֵר: אֵינָהּ חוֹשֶׁשֶׁת.
A woman whose husband and co-wife went overseas, and they came and said to her, “Your husband died,” may not marry or be taken in yibum until she knows if her co-wife is pregnant. [If] she had a mother-in-law, she need not concern herself. [However, if] she departed while pregnant, she must concern herself. R' Yehoshua says: She need not consider it.
