Time-frame?


What is the time-frame supposed to be from the point of the [first] husband's death to the point of the wedding? I'm trying to piece together the whole pregnancy thing, and after perusing every thread on this board I haven't succeeded yet!

Okay, at the point where we find out she's pregnant, she's already four months along--but she's JUST married her second husband that day. He's the father, we know that, so they've been having sex since at least four months before they were married.  But was her first husband still alive when she got pregnant? If so, they could've simply claimed it was a miracle that he got her pregnant after all those years of thinking he was sterile! Problem solved.

Can't help much on the timeline between the death of Susan's husband and the wedding. The only date I recall was Susan's husband mentioning on his broadcast that it was September - the day Webb and Susan first met "socially".

We also don't know why her husband couldn't have children. Was he just impotent or, more drastcially, did he have some sort of injury? Like having his testicles shot off in the war? Testicular cancer and they were surgically removed? We just aren't told.

The screenwriters were ahead of you. Webb and Susan discussed this option in the motel in Las Vegas, ruling it out because John's brother the pharmacist knew the man was incapable.
