Renesmee Carlie Cullen

When Edward and Bella went on their honeymoon, fulfilling Bella’s one human condition, they conceived Renesmee. At first, Edward was desperate to remove the fetus from Bella before the baby sucked Bella’s life away, but Bella was even more determined to survive the pregnancy and bring her baby into the world. Bella chose the name Renesmee in honor of her mother, Renee, and her mother-in-law, Esme.

Renesmee grew from conception to birth in one month and, although the process of her birth almost killed Bella, both ultimately survived. Moments after her birth, she met Jacob for the first time and he imprinted.

Renesmee continued to grow at an exponentially advanced rate even after her birth. When Irina comes to visit a few weeks after her birth, she appears to be one of the forbidden immortal children, the cause of her own mother’s demise. Although neither the Cullens nor Renesmee herself knew at the time, Irina eventually travelled to Italy and reported the Cullen’s apparent disregard for the law, bringing the entire guard down on Forks.

Renesmee is forced to prove the story of her birth to all of the vampires who come to provide witness for the Cullens. When the time comes, she convinces even Aro of the truth of her story and although he almost orders her death simply because of the uncertainty surrounding her development, she and her family survive the meeting.
