Can grandparent come and take a child from a stepparent if biological parent dies?

Not for final full custody. The court has to decide who the children will go to. If they have lived with stepparent for years and know him/her as a parent the stepparent have a chance for custody. If the biological parent have left a will with his/hers wishes, it will also play a part. It's all about what is best for the children. Get a lawyer.

Can a child have abandonment issues if a parent dies before the child is born?

Not the same way as if the child was older but missing having a mom/dad and not getting to know the parent can make the child feel such things. The other parent and grandparents can often tell the child how amazing the parent was and that can make you feel like you knew him/her in a way and miss him/her and wish you had met and known him/her.
