Title: Female werewolves and pregnancy
Post by: redeyes on February 05, 2009, 04:44:42 PM
If a female werewolf is pregnant knowing she can shift at any time, can she have the baby or will it die?

um... I... don't think it would affect the fetus... a fetus is a fetus is a fetus, and a womb is a womb.  Though, a shift is not something that would really do much to hurt a fetus...
If you're talking about fictional ones which transform into bloodthirsty wolf-like monsters under the full moon, I would say no for the same reason.

Actually, I could probably argue both sides. I highly doubt the fetus would shift with the woman, which means that, if there is excessive movement of organs and bone structure, the fetus could possibly be injured or killed. On the other hand, female werewolves have been bearing children for quite a long time--their bodies must be somehow equipped to protect the fetus; either that, or they simply do not shift while they are carrying the fetus. It would also depend on the extent of the physical changes during the shift.

I apologize; I really can't give a definitive answer.

ut wouldn't by shift while the fetus is growing in her, wouldn't that like stretch and hurt the baby?

As I said, I don't think it would.  A womb is a womb, and even if you could physically turn half wolf, I don't see why it would hurt the fetus.  Real Life shifting, not at all, because the fetus should be fine with the occasional chemical charge that a shift causes in the blood stream.

you don't shift physically so i guess the baby's unharmed,  unless of course, the mom does something so terrible during her shift that it somehow affects the baby IRL.

In books and movies the fetus dies, always. That may not be the case. A wolfs womb is different from a humans, and a physical shift means the womb would change and my guess would be that the placenta would come detachted essentially killing the fetus. The human pelvis is designed for a human baby a wolfs is not. If there is a physical transformation, the amount of aldrenaline it would take could possibly burst the babies heart(speaking that its formed) which is already pumping at full capacity, at least for the few weeks, i don't really remember how long it flies as fast as it can. But a huge aldrenaline rush, like the one to shift, would cause an overdrive and once again killing it.

An infant would be expected to shift with its mother. Though most 'weres' do not come into their creature until puberty. I don't think the rule changes for unborns.

i think that applies if we are talking about fictional werewolves here. we are talking about the fictional ones here, right?

redeyes asked if a female werewolf could shift, would the baby die. More than likely yes it would. of course there is very little proof of an actual transformation, and those that can do it...Usually forget what to get proof when they shift. for obvious reasons

so technically it can?
Title: Re: Female werewolves and pregnancy
Post by: Vince_03 on March 07, 2009, 11:59:19 PM
fictionally speaking, it's both a yes and a no. there are so many legends, versions, myths, and explanations that it would be very hard to even distinguish one logical explanation

Not to mention everyone is different. Like an allergy to silver, or wolfsbane or hell even cats. Some are, some aren't. Some rules just don't apply to everyone.

If you're a fictional werewolf, it might.  If you're a real one, it's doubtable.

oh its fine see on of my friends is a werewolf and she might be pregnant
By now you will have the answer to the question as 9 months have past
But normally it would depend on what type of wolf she is and how strong the child’s  wolf blood is compared to his or her human blood,

The shifting almost never cases harm as the hormones released triggers faster healing,
No the baby does not shift with the mom as ALL sifting in werewolf’s can only start at the male age of 16 and female age 14, the pregnant mother wolf will have some
Incompatibility

If your friend wants any info on her baby or her self my e-mail address is

Ps Yes I am a Wolf, and so is my son

I would just advise her not to shift as much if plausible, to ensure the fetus safety. If it were me I would find a were who has had children. I don't think it would hurt the fetus because their bodies should be designed to be able to keep it stable, but it may have other effects because a shift changes the person it may interfear with the splitting of the genomes and DNA, which could lead to genetic disorders. But honestly I don't think there is a person here who knows for certain so it may be wise to talk to someone who might know more.

wouldnt a werewolkf fetus already have gentic protocols to deal with a situation??? i mean i could see the issue if the mother was human and the father was a were but if the mother is a were both should have the genetics to deal with such a stituaion because human or not most things still have the urge to procreate and if theyve survived this long obviously they can do it.

well you do have point
Title: Re: Female werewolves and pregnancy
Post by: Aniyu on November 07, 2010, 09:59:54 PM
Another point....no matter how long this took.....
A human womb is shaped like a fist with two horns...kind of.

A wolf womb is shape like a dowsing rod. On small truck at the cervix then it splits into two long horns.
A human in a wolfs womb would cause severe problems. Rupturing of the uterine wall, internally bleeding for the mother, the placenta removing itself from the wall, the twisting and breaking of flesh and bones. A true physical shift while pregnant would be a very painful death for mother and baby if pre measures are not taken.

Wow redeyes, i too just found i am pregnant. Between 5-7 weeks...scary.
Though i am currently in a whole lot of pain. That has been the only symptom...save for being tired. Is pain. Sometimes its a dull ache and others it is side splitting and i am incapacitated. Its strange

Greetings, I shall contact my friend who is a cryptozoologist,(top secret level clearance) and ask him the specifics on your behalf. Just don't ask me how he knows this stuff. Ill post his advice in a couple of hours. As well I shall contact my werewolf friend who has given birth to suppressers, half-lings , and pups.

  Top Secret Cryptozoology?  Really.  My friend I suggest you put down the bong, take the rubber band from your arm, and then join reality for just a small time.  There is no such thing and if there was I would have had that "Clearance" Long LONG ago.  I have list upon list of cryptozoologic creatures that would make a book.  Top Secret indeed.  I think you will be luck if you are allowed to stay here much longer.  Not due to the fact that you "May" be dangerous, but due to the fact that I do not wish this community befouled by such blatant ignorance.  Just so you know you have already caught the attention (negative attention at that) from two of my Moderators, and you have yet to even remotely impress me.  There are two left here who are above me and guess what Sparky?  If they find you as wanting as others have you will go bye bye.  Think long and hard before you post again, your future here most assuredly depends on it.
