Which is entirely impossible and couldn't possibly be something the writers would do...?

She didn't go the full nine months, I don't think. The women on the island never went the full nine months?

Ben continues to tell people that he has lived his whole life on the island (eg convo with Locke at the Dharma mass grave) and we know that to be untrue, but if his mother was an Island resident (and preggo) prior to meeting his father, it could get very interesting. It could also explain young Ben's vision of his mother and also explain how the elder Linus got recruited to Dharma. The Island gave up a young woman so that the Island's savior could be born - at least in Ben's view.

But since Sun conceived on the island and is carrying a mutant baby, even if she is one of the 6 will she end up dying anyways?!!? So Sun returns to civilization only to give birth and die?

I thought the idea was that the women were giving birth before full term cause it was the island making the babies grow and form at such a rate that it literally leeched and sucked the life out of the women by childbirth. I believe Juliet mentioned something about the increased rate of growing. If Sun can get off the island before too long in her pregnancy, maybe the gestation period will slow down to some normalcy? But yea, if she stays on the island too much longer, it will be too late and that baby will kill her.

It's more important to be born there. Nobody can be conceived in an "alternate" world because technically they cannot exist at all. However, if you are able to be born there, you have a tremendous gift-one of either pure good or pure evil.

When I was a kid, my dog, Buster... I had this drawer where I'd throw in all my change, right... and I guess there were some Smarties in there... so, like, the next day, Buster craps out a $1.35 in nickels." - Hurley
