Howling:Six Months Later

At the beginning of Day of the Moon, it is written "3 months later", and at the end of the episode, it is "6 months later" when the little girl regenerates. That makes it a total of 9 months since the doctor and his companions first arrived to 1969. Could it mean something that the girl regenerated after exactly 9 months of Amy arriving? (which is the total duration of pregnancy)? 94.187.83.217 11:27, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

You might be onto something. 92.29.183.234 11:42, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Not really. The cause of the regeneration was the fact that she was taken out of the life support machine (astronaut suit), 6 months later, she dies. She managed to hang on for a long time, perhaps because of those mysterious time lord genes? Amy obviously gave birth to the girl at some point before 1969, unless the little girl has a TARDIS, which could mean any time! Ghastly9090 11:45, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Just because the astronaut suit can provide full life support does not imply that the girl requires it to live. The 6-months-later death/regeneration could have an entirely separate cause. I do hope we find out more though. Remember the Doctor's clone/"daughter" Jenny who we never saw again? I always wondered what she was up to. Of course, this new girl is clearly far more central to the series arc and should show up again.

The little girl doesn't have to have a TARDIS; there are other ways to travel in time--hitching a ride in someone else's TARDIS (or on one a la Jack--sure, that would kill you, but a Time Tot might just regenerate), being carried or led by a Tharil, the Daleks' Time Corridors and related technologies, future humanity's Vortex Manipulators, Gallifreyan Time Rings, random or secretly-non-random Time Storms, cracks in the universe, helpful/evil/capricious quasi-supernatural beings (Fenric, Eternals, etc.), warp drive malfunctions, other random accidents... and that's just what I can remember off-hand out of what we've seen on screen. (Somehow, being around Cybermen seems to make a lot of the more random stuff more likely--see Earthshock, Silver Nemesis, Blood of the Cybermen, etc.--so maybe that's how the Cybermen will come into season 6, he said almost completely jokingly.) --99.33.26.0 08:00, May 5, 2011 (UTC)
