If the baby ends up being part-Wesen, part-Grimm, I have a theory that the baby would not survive for very long because those two things cannot co-exist within one being. Think of it as sort of a paradox.

I actually had the same thought...but if that was going to happen, then it seems like it would've caused a miscarriage already.

So I figure if the baby hasn't miscarried so far, from the paradox, and from all the other things that Adalind has been through...then he is a pretty strong little fellow and will probably go to full term.

Maybe the thing about Adalind having Nick's blood in her already has something to do with it? I dunno.

The effects of Adalind suppressing her powers may have an impact on the baby.

Some really good stuff here that I hadn't thought about. I would agree that the Grimm's blood is probably more powerful, or takes more precedent over Adalind's blood, though Adalind having Nick's blood in her really complicates things. Add in the effects of her suppressing her own powers, which definitely may have suppressed any powers the baby could have had as a Hexenbiest, and we are all truly left to wonder what the deal is going to be with this baby.

Lurkenfrau, you made a good point about the pregnancy having resulted in a miscarriage if some type of paradox existed, but it's probably wise to remember (and I should have remembered this too) that not all descendants of Grimms actually become Grimms, and when they do, it's not until much later after they're born. So the baby probably could survive for quite a while, but if he is part-Wesen, and later on in life some Grimm-ness kicks in too, I would speculate that there would be a tremendous conflict there--perhaps there would be some inner conflict similar to Pierce Higgins.

I don't think the writers would fast-forward into the future 12 or 13 years though, so I expect that it will be revealed upon birth what the deal is with their baby. That alone makes me think the most likely thing is that the baby is part-Zauberbiest with some enhanced physical abilities from Nick, such as enhanced strength, rather than the baby actually being a Grimm. I'm just not sure if the Zauberbiest part will be evident right away though
