How do mermaids give birth lol?

Do mermaids have live babies or lay eggs? 🤔 Hmmmm

First, it is necessary to establish the fact that mermaids – and of course, mermen – can have both legs and tails, though not at the same time. In addition, they can ‘do it’ both human-style or mer-style. Anatomical differences prevent a ‘half and half’ approach.

The merfolk of Colony Island, as well as feral merfolk, find moonlit beaches to be quite appealing for mating and/or breeding. It is, however, not necessary to have this setting as numbers of merfolk got their start in the bedroom simply because the weather turned had foul during the days surrounding the full moon. While mermaids can will themselves to ovulate, they can’t put things on hold once the breeding flush appears.

Ferals don’t have the bedroom option since most tend to consider doing it human-style as an unspeakable abomination. In the event of foul weather, they’ll swim offshore to a suitable depth in order to take care of business.

Once fertilization is achieved, mermaids – like human females – go though a nine-month gestation period. The vast majority will elect to give birth offshore since, in her natural form, a mermaid’s pelvis is radically different. This facilitates and easy and almost painless delivery.

Mermaids are mythical creatures, and their reproductive processes are left to the imagination. Their portrayal and biology may vary depending on cultural folklore or creative interpretations in literature and media.

Well, they are always depicted as having breasts, which are biologically necessary for nurturing live young, so I would assume they have live births.

If they laid eggs, then they wouldn't need to produce milk. The platypus being the only notable exception.

What a wonderful question & with all honesty I don’t even know how mermaids give birth but on the other hand I hear they like Semen.

Lay eggs that form into merbabies.

Live babies like a sea horse does
