Christa's pregnancy

OK hello people so Christa is pregnant. I know this because when Lee or Omid and Christa were going to cross the unstable sign in episode 5, when they were debating who would go over the sign first Lee says " He's got a busted leg and YOU'RE WALKING FOR TWO, I'm obviously not doing so hot, decision doesn't make itself." WALKING FOR TWO walking for herself and her unborn child? Some may think that he just means she is also walking for Omid, but he is recovered and if you ask Christa how she is she says "I'm fine" very suspiciously and Lee says "You know what I'm talking about" so this seems a lot more discreet than just looking after Omid. Also back when thew group was stuck in the attic, Kenny was handing the drink around to Lee and Christa, you have the option to drink some or don't. But your decision doesn't seem to effect Christa. She has quite a big hesitation but decides to drink it. A LOT OF IT. Was she trying to kill the baby? This also relates to The Walking Dead TV show by AMC when Laurie the main character's wife tried to kill her baby by taking pills. This kind of relates to what Christa did. Alcohol kills babies its a fact so maybe she was trying to kill it or she is just thirsty for some alcohol! And back when they were trying to get inside the mansion when Chuck the hobo got separated from the group when Lee dug up the dog and tried getting the collar off it and unfortunately it's head fell off... YUCK!... Anyway she was sick and Clementine asked if she was OK and she said she was fine but the Omid said are you SURE your OK and she reacted in quite a hasty way by saying I'm fine OK! Maybe she was trying to hide it from the group? If she wasn't pregnant then what was Omid so curious about?

So I think Christa is pregnant and the couple will return in season 2 no doubt.

Hope you have enjoyed this theory guys and girls and I hope you have found it interesting. Love you all and STAY AWESOME!

    I think it's quite obvious she was pregnant. My mom said "Pregnant!" As soon as she played through the part with the dogs head falling off. I had suspected it since the beginning, the way Omid was so excited that we had a kid I could guess they were either creepy pedophiles or had/going to have a kid. Though just being pregnant might not be enough to earn them both a spot in season 2, I imagine one of them might just bite the dust.

    I too think they will return in Season 2, but i think they may be dead either upon game start or very soon afterward.

    There really is zero doubt that Christa is pregnant, it's practically spelled out for you and almost blatantly stated.

    Yeah, I don't think they'll last long, they weren't written too well.

    This. Also pregnancy is a death sentence.

    I agree. They felt to me like they were only there because the group numbers needed padding.

    I think they didn't really fill the void left in the group by episode 3, but you could argue they were maybe victims of timing. Episodes 1-3 seemed a lot more focused on the group dynamic and politics, While 4/5 felt more focused on driving towards an ending, first the boat plan and then Lee's death which along with needing to resolve the leftovers of Kenny/Ben the bandit incidents sidelined them a little bit.

    I do think though that the strongly hinted pregnancy may have been setting them up for a more significant role in the future. Which could save them for a little while.

    I just think we didn't get much time to get to know them as well as the rest of the cast. In the first episode you get to take your time and talk to everyone at both the farm and the drug store and the following two episodes have moments like that when you get back to the motor-inn.

    With Christa and Omid you're mostly stuck going from one problem to another and Omid's injury knocks him out for most of episode four. The only real only real bonding you get is a little when you first meet them and a little more in the attic and manor next door.

    You also see them for a much shorter period time story wise. All though there in about two and half episodes like some other characters, it's over a period of only like three days or so. Where as episodes one through three is a period of months which allowed for more drastic changes in character. Kenny in particular changes a lot between episode one and two because of the time skip.

    I find if you replay the segments their in and exhaust all the dialogue options you can get a better feel for them but it still feels thin compared to the likes of Kenny, Clem, Ben or Lilly. There's nothing stopping the writers of season two from expanding Christa and Omid's character though. I wouldn't be surprised if their inclusion was specifically for that reason, seeing as their one of the few main cast members who we don't see die.

    If I could put my money down on anything, it would be that Christa's child dies inside her and kills her. I think it would happen discretely, cause that'd be disgusting, but it would be a great thriller and shock to see the baby turn(giving the idea that there is NOONE immune). Omid would probably die before that, from however the developers wanted it. That would create drama, getting rid of another one of Clem's "caretakers" and leaving the baby to come fatherless. It would also allow the PC to get closer to Clem.

    What happens if Christa dies and Omid becomes the opposite he is now?
  • edited March 2013
    I don't think Christa being pregnant was a surprise when it was finally said. There were lots of hints leading up to that. But I doubt she'll have the baby in S2. If anything, (if she's still around), I expect it more in S3.

    I also don't think that she was drinking to kill the baby - and it is NOT a fact that alcohol kills babies. It can kill babies and it can cause defects, but it's not a guarantee. And it takes a lot more than downing a bit once the entire pregnancy. I do think she drank because she was (unsuccessfully) trying to hide the fact that she was pregnant from the rest of the group. Although I do believe that Omid knew.

    Even if Christa never came out and said "I'm pregnant", he would have noticed that she wasn't having her period, that she was having morning sickness, and that she was more moody. I just find it hard to believe that someone who is so intimate with her would overlook the bold fact that she was pregnant. Give her about 2 more months, and she'll be showing, too.

    But to what some others are saying:

    I don't think that pregnancy is necessarily a death sentence. For most women, pregnancy is easy and delivery is even easier. (And recent studies HAVE suggested that natural birth is safer and quicker than hospital-assisted births.) The only problems that might arise would be if she takes too long in one place to deliver or if the baby crying brings too many walkers.

    The good news is that she'll have to breastfeed, which can help keep a baby quiet (trust me :P) and women CAN and DO walk around during labor. The shit in movies is horribly inaccurate. (Stopping to lay down for hours screaming. It's ridiculous!)

    As for her baby killing her - I don't know. I kind of thought it'd need teeth to do that. It might gum her, but I don't think that it could gum her to death :P

    But I do think that Christa will be dying. I suspect that Omid will be left to take care of the baby by himself. That would present unique problems - he wouldn't be able to care for Clem. It was obvious that Christa was the fighter in the relationship. He also can't just breastfeed, he would have to find formula. It would be more problematic for him to be left with the baby, than for the baby and Christa to die.

    They have to be in Season 2, they have to take care of Clementine -.-
    Also, her pregnancy will play a major role(hopefully) because they wouldn't have build up all of that just to kill her off.

    Since they dropped so many hints during Season 1, I'm sure Christa and her pregnancy will at least be present in S2 at some point, though I doubt it will be the main focus. I'll do my damnedest to make sure that kid lives, though. The world needs new life amidst all the death we saw in S1.

    The baby could rip her apart from the inside.

    In the real world, yes...but in a zombie apocalypse, it reduces your chances of survival outside of a group by approximately 83%.

    Pregnancy still doesn't increase your chances of death. Maybe having a loud crying infant but you can still run away and shoot a gun while pregnant. Maybe I'm just not understanding your meaning? :confused:

    The crying will bring more walkers every day, and that alone results in less of a chance to survive. Even if you can still run and gun, you'll always have one hand carrying the infant. I imagine firing a weapon one foot away from a baby's ears might cause him/her to begin crying, as well, drawing more to you.

    Have you seen how many times Lee was forced to fight hand-to-hand with walkers even when he had a gun? If you're carrying a baby in your arms when that happens, your chances to survive the encounter are looking fairly grim.

    I'm not saying it's impossible to survive with one, but outside of a group or safe area(and we know Omid & Christa are hesitant to join groups at all) you can't deny that everyday life will get a lot more difficult with a baby on board.

    If you pay attention to what they're saying when you climb up the ladder to first meet them, Omid clearly was looking for other people to take care of Christa during/after she gives birth.

    Agreed. Having an infant or toddler would make survival more difficult for sure. But I was referring to the post that said "Pregnancy" was a 'death sentence'; which i disagreed with.

    I assumed Christa wore the pants in that relationship, and that she would overrule anything Omid says. She was determined to keep that pregnancy a secret all the way to the end, for some reason...

    She obviously couldn't keep it a secret forever. It would eventually get (more) damn obvious. Which seemed to be exactly what Omid was talking about.

    I seem to remember their conversation going something like this.

    Omid: A group of guys is what we need.
    Christa: They're what you think we need. We're doing fine.
    Omid: For now. What about when...
    Christa: Stop it.

    Considering how rare safety was, she'd have to concede they needed help at some point.

    I found Omid funny, but in the big picture, both Christa and Omid felt "forced", as if they were just brought in to fill out ranks of companions that had either fallen, or left.

    If christa really had a baby wouldn't she be a bit fat from the baby and if so why isn't she omid and Christa must of had sex not to long ago otherwise she would be fat your thoughts on this?

    how old are you? No she wouldn't be 'fat'. My guess is that she is less than 3 months along.

    I agree. If they are not in season 2 it wouldn't bother me, although I would like to know what happened to them. Christa was whiny and annoying, in my opinion.
