I had no idea so many would think "hex's should put warning labels on their potions" was more than an attempt to add a little levity to the forum. When that book was written warning labels were not required, the 1967 session of the Wessen Council first made that a requirement.

Adalind was Juliette, so the effects were not so obvious. This is after all sorcery, not bilology. But these obscure rituals always had some side effect.
It wasn't a side effect. She didn't put in a birth control agent like Elizabeth did when she prepared the reverse spell.
Eric, I was actually responding to N_grimm's comment. I am sorry, I should not have included your quote in my response. I know you were joking and you did put some levity into this thread, which is always welcome.
I was responding to your respond to eric’s comment – he was, as pointed out, trying to make a joke.
Regarding the “side effect”, this was a term Nick used to describe what happened: “What kind of side effects this time”?
If Adalind forgot to add the “Ferula tingitana” herb (birth control), it only proves that she didn’t “take a chance”, she made a mistake! No wonder she was surprised!
My only point was that in the tv-show Grimm, where a man interacts with witches and werewolfs and turns into a zombie, everything is possible - and nothing is obvious. For example: Juliette could have become pregnant because of Adalind’s spell if that was the writer’s intention. It was the opposite – to get rid of Juliette. (As a side note, Juliette first thought “her symptoms” were due to a pregnancy).
