Myer does address this on her website. I some of Edward’s saliva got into her mouth, it wouldn’t change her unless she had an open sore in her mouth. If Bella was changed in this way it would be an extremely slow and painful process. That’s why human Bella only kissed lips with Edward. They never took kissing to far because Edward’s razor sharp teeth would have shredded Bella’s lips and tongue. Myer said there’s different types of vampire venom, with only the saliva venom able to change a human to vampire. That’s why Edward was able to impregnate Bella without changing her. Vampire semen does have venom, but it won’t change a human into a vampire.
