Online postings say there were "experiments" to try to conceive the first space child.

This is no rumor, I had found a newspaper article from a few years back I had used for packing material which described NASA observing the mechanics of it in space.

Think about having a baby in space woudnt that create big complications, especially to the child, since its introduced to an atmosphere with my gravity?

not only that, but the baby would have very weak bone structure. astronauts have to take many calcium supplements in order for them not to get brittle bones. space travel depletes the calcium in your bones quite rapidly.
