How can Bella get pregnant by a vampire? I've read that some readers think that Bella would have been turned if she has sex with a vampire because a vampire's semen would contain venom. Well, they're correct that vampire semen contains venom, however it won't change a human. One poster even said that Bella should have been changed inside-out after having sex with Edward. The reason that Bella can get pregnant and not be changed into a vampire is because there are different kinds of venom. There's venom that lubricates the eye, venom that's in their veins and lubricates their joints. Obviously there's a venom that replaces a male vampire's semen, but it still contains sperm cells. All these venoms have a purpose, but they won't change a human into a vampire. Only the salava/mouth venom is able to change a human into a vampire. Myer said that that was the reason Edward is careful when he kisses Bella. Bella and Edward do kiss, but it never goes too far (french kissing). They only innocently kiss lips and that's as far as it goes. Myer said tht Edwards teeth would shred Bella's lips and tongue to pieces if they went to far in their kissing. His saliva wouldn't change her if some got in her mouth, but if Bella had a sore or something in her mouth, the venom could reach her blood stream. I read this on Myer's site and hope it helps you understand why Bella was able to concieve with Edward, and why they had to be so careful kissing.
