I think that Alice saw Edward in that 'frozen state' after Bella told him that her period was 5 days late. I don't think it would be possible for Alice to see Renesmee exactly because it's impossible for her to see "hybrid-vampires" and Werewolves.

That's just what I think though.... Did that help?

I think that she either saw Edward frozen, as you said, or she noticed Bella was a semi-blind spot who she only got flickers from. She might not have seen it earlier because Bella didn't know about the child, and therefore hadn't decided to keep her. If I were Alice, the fact that it seemed like Bella was around a bunch of wolves would've freaked me out, and be very unlikely. I would doubt that Jacob decided to leave the continent, rent a boat and find a private island... though it would have been funny if Jacob were to walk in on them .

thanks for both of your thoughts, that does help! and both answers make sense/could work. if anyone ever has the chance to talk to SM or they need to find out!

I'm looking for it in the book but Alice said she got scared when they suddenly "disappeared" in her mind. That happened because that is the moment that Renesmee became a fetus, and she can't see "half-breeds" (although she didn't know that at the time). I'll find it....

^^Glad to be able to help! This is one of my favorite threads. (Weird, I know. But I like to answer people's Twilight questions .)

I've said this before, but I read "Gone With the Wind" last year, and it said that when Margaret Mitchell created Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler, she created the two most famous lovers since Romeo and Juliet. With the success of the Twilight books and the movie, I can't help but to wonder if SM did that for the modern times with Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. I hope so! I really hope somebody brings that up to her, in an interview!

Sorry, these are some weird questions about vampires, but, I'm curious :

1. Do vampires sneeze?

2. Do vampires yawn? Because you yawn when you need more oxygen... even though vampires don't really need oxygen, would it just be a habbit?

3. Do they need to blink? Because somewhere in BD when theyre giving Bella tips on how to act human, someone says blink at least 3 times a minute; so does that mean that they don't need to blink?

Actually Alice mentions to Jacob that when Bella first thought she was pregnant that Bella just disappeared from her vision.

1. No, they don't sneeze because sneezing is to push out dust and particles and stuff, and their bodies don't need to push it out, so they don't need to sneeze.

2. No, people yawn when their brains need oxygen to resist sleep/when their brain is telling them to sleep. Vampires don't need to sleep, so they don't need to yawn.

3. No, people blink to maintain their eyes' moisture. Vampire eyes don't need/have the moisture, so they don't need to blink. The 'no moisture thing' is also why they can't cry.

Tomorrow I leave . My activity here will be... not very active. Erratic, at best

How were vampires first created in Twilight? Have they always existed in our universe?

Did Jacob Black always have feelings for Bella, or was it something that grew over time?

Where are the other vampires in all of this? Are they spread out worldwide or are they just a 'strain' in the pacific northwest?

Where are the vampire hunters in all of this?

I heard a rumor that Edward Cullen is really Alucard- do you think Stephanie will revisit the story of Count Dracula?

What is a man?

Cool! Where did you get all of these questions? Who's Alucard? Where did the rumor come from that Edward is Alucard? It'd be great if Stephenine revisted Dracula!
