Am I the only one who thinks Kristen having Eric's baby wouldn't make any sense?
She raped him in June, she suspected she could be pregnant in August but the test was negative, then she went to medical appointments to confirm she couldn't conceive a child in the fall and when she left the show in November, there was nothing that indicated she was pregnant.
The negative result on the pregnancy test is ridiculously easy to explain away. "It was a false negative." Done. The meetings with a fertility specialist would only be slightly more difficult to explain away, since we never actually saw any of those -- we just heard little things about them here and there. For all we know, she could have been making all of that up. Her lack of a "baby bump" when she left in November can also easily be explained away, since, as I said earlier, some people don't even know that they're pregnant until the moment that they go into labor.

Really, in the grand scheme of things, it wouldn't be that unbelievable to say that she didn't realize that she was pregnant until after she left Salem in November. She would have only been nearing the five-month mark of her pregnancy at that point. If they want to make the baby Eric's, it's certainly feasible. Now, I do agree that realistically, it would probably need to be suffering from fetal alcohol syndrome due to the amount of alcohol that she was consuming during that period of time, but that's another matter entirely. Days is obviously willing to go there, since they have in the past, but I doubt that they will complicate matters by doing so in this case. That's just my gut instinct, though. They could easily just have Kristen say, "It's a miracle that the baby was born healthy, since I was really knocking back the drinks to calm my nerves while trying to keep my secret about Eric from being revealed" and be done with it.
They didn't show Kristen drinking that much that her baby would be at high risk to suffer from fetal alcohol syndrome, actually, LOL. I'm not saying you can drink during pregnancy and this won't affect your unborn child, but it won't be a miracle that the baby is healthy. Definitely not. It's not that amount :).
Quote:
 
A study of over 400,000 American women, all of whom had consumed alcohol during pregnancy, concluded that consumption of 15 drinks or more per week was associated with a reduction in birth weight. Though consumption of less than 15 drinks per week was not proven to cause FAS-related effects, the study authors recommend limiting consumption to no more than one standard drink per day. [...] The 4-DDC ranking system distinguishes between levels of prenatal alcohol exposure as High Risk and Some Risk. It operationalizes high risk exposure as a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) greater than 100 mg/dL delivered at least weekly in early pregnancy. This BAC level is typically reached by a 55 kg woman drinking six to eight beers in one sitting.
/Wikipedia/
She didn't drink that much.
Just because you don't see it on screen doesn't mean it's not happening :D Goodness, almost every time she entered that DiMansion living room she grabbed herself a drink, so it's likely she did it during that make believe life she was living off screen :D

It wasn't protected last night so they must have made it private after Eileen called them out. It literally said something similar to "So you aren't announcing this now to upstage Ali's exit?"
Ah. Stupid, LOL

I could see her signing a short term contract, 3 to 6 months would be ideal for a storyline.
If it's 3 months it would make Eileen's/Kristen's exit about the same time as Ali's/Sami's (that's if ED begins taping in the beginning of March). This would be well.... well.... idk :shrug: explosive? disaster?.

When I'm thinking about it I don't want Kristen's storyline to be tied to Sami's too much.

So ED tweet about being "pregnant with possibilities" is very telling that Kristen WILL be coming back pregnant.

Sounds like a WTD story...and I LOVE it.
That was in reply to a fan who asked if ED was pregnant. I don't think it's directly related to Kristen's s/l

Why would she respond "pregnant with possibilities"....I don't think she was talking about a RL situation with that response...obviously ED is not pregnant, so whatelse could she mean by such a response? :shrug:

Especially now that she has confirmed her initial tweet last week, which warranted this question, was INDEED about her returning to DAYS.

No, that "pregnant with possibilities" tweet was made almost directly after she tweeted that she had news.

Don't you think she used the expression in this sense?

Hmm, now that I see it in context, I think she was simply using the word "pregnant" as a way to describe how full of possibilities her news is. Unless she was actually doing both that and hinting at the actual spoiler of Kristen being pregnant. I just wonder if she would feel free to give out such a big spoiler like that. Isn't that usually frowned upon by the TPTB?

The writers could very well have made the decision to bring Kristen back preggo, but I don't think ED's tweet was in direct relation to a possible Kristen baby of doom s/l.

Rosebud, I love your avatar! It reminds me of this scene from 1996 when Kristen watches John and Marlena dance at Sami and Austin's wedding in Paris. The way she crumples up her wrapper and walks across the room all pissed off makes me laugh every time. And then of course she catches the bouquet right in front of Marlena and totally rubs her nose in it. "Guess that means John and I are next!" LoL. Good times!

Skip to 4:35.

Cool. Now if they would just ditch the hacky, crappy overrated Ari Zuker, things would be alright. If that chick is the future "leading lady" of DAYS, this show is in worse shape than I thought.

I don't get why Kristen would team up with Nick? Did they ever have a connection of any kind? What would cause them to team up? He has it out for Kate, Sami, Will and Sonny and is obsessed with Gabi. Kristen has no issues with any of them, other than she finds Sami annoying because she's Sami and Marlena's daugther.
They don't have any sort of connection, and it wouldn't really make sense for them to team up (aside from the fact that they're both twisted, although I would argue that Nick is twisted in an entirely different -- and much worse -- way than Kristen is, which is why I love her and can't stand the sight of him), but the impression that I get is that the people who want it to happen don't care about whether it makes sense -- they just want it to happen because they want to see the two actors in scenes together.

Which is a perfectly understandable motivation for wanting something to happen, of course. I just hope that the writers never go there. Actually, I hope that Blake Berris isn't even around right now for the writers to be able to consider going there in the first place.

Eileen Davidson starts taping in March of this year and will presumably start airing in July or August of this year. Alison Sweeney stops taping in December of this year and will presumably stop airing around May of next year. If, for argument's sake, we assume that Eileen is only going to be taping for six months, that would be March through September, which would mean that she would stop taping months before Alison does.

It is highly unlikely that Eileen's return has anything to do with Alison's departure.

The SOD article with Sweeney said that she would stop taping in May, so she should be off canvas around September or October.
