1. The rubber catsuit, obviously!! ("Ouch!...the Intendant Kira 
   pregnant in that rubber suit?  Although I bet the baby'd get a 
   little excitement with that thing creaking."  ...thanks to
   Emily in AOL for the above comment)
      BC: The Intendant does NOT have problems.  She causes them.
      RV: End of discussion... *purrrr*

2. Who fathered the child? Sisko? Smiley? Garak?? (Please! Not Garak!)
      RV: Maybe Dan Fielding from "Night Court"!! 
          Or Bubba from "In The Heat Of The Night"
      BC: Never Garak. Obviously Sisko-the-Pirate.

3. Might think the Alien is growing inside of her (Yo.. Ripley?) 
      BC: See #1. The Alien would lose. 
      RV: Hmm... so would Ripley.
      BC: Did you know my dog is named "Ripley"? For Sigourney Weaver?

4. Child may be forced to always wear a T-shirt that says...
        "Don't Mess with Me... My Mommy's the Intendant!!"
      BC: But Buster's already *got* that T-shirt.
      RV: Now they'll be *two* wearing that T-shirt.  How cute...
          just like Momma!

5. The Alliance Regent, Worf, will deliver the kid 
      BC: Why do I have this feeling of deja vu?

6. The potential milk-shortages...
      BC: No comment.

7. Re: #6, she might substitute the milk with Diet Pepsi.
      RV: Diet-Pepsi??  I'm a Coca-Cola fan myself.

8. Sneezing during state functions (i.e. executions) could be a little disrupting.

9. In fact, going into labor during state functions is VERY disrupting!

10. The Intendant doesn't like to be referred to as "Moogie"
     BC: See #8, re: executions.

11. The added expense of replacing the Stairmaster due to excessive
    use (not to mention the "Ab-roller" *g*).
    RV: Does the TAPPERCISE video come with the Ab-roller?

12. The added indignities when touring the ore-processing centers 
     by smart-aleck Terrans: "Lay off the Palukoo-kabobs, Intendant!!"
    BC: Chocolate-covered palukoo-on-a-stick.

13. Echida, the Mother of All Monsters (re: Hercules) is pregnant
    too.  Consider the child-care problems for the two of them...
    RV: Imagine Xena, Warrior-Princess, becoming pregnant...

14. Uncle Garak's Child Care....

15. Do *you* want to change the diapers? Nah - let Garak.
    RV: The Regent will make damn sure Garak changes the diapers
       BTW, Blanche, that iron collar really becomes him!

16. The thought of being upstaged by Seska (re: Voyager)...

17. Child may follow Momma's footsteps & change hairstyle (& hair-
    color) every six months.

18. Ferengi as babysitters...NOT!  They're the ultimate "Rugrats".

19. Baby-shower will resemble some kind of Broadway show... look!
    There's Flounder!! (hmm... maybe not.  Might be Prawn).

...and last, but not least...

20. No surrogate available if something goes wrong (jeez...): 
     *Major* Kira's too busy with a baby of her own!
