protection, she wouldn't be in any danger from the embyro Hunger, in fact her placenta should burn it out.. However she has no protection, she lost that in Ghost Story.

And she got the protection again after they had sex and confirmed their love. Rinse and repeat as said in ghost story.

So she lost it again and she got it again. The important thing is that after Thomas decided not to feed from Justine again, when he discovered Justine’s pregnancy, Justine had no sex with other people. Justine got her protection and Thomas decided to keep the protection and for that he had to stop feeding himself, he starved his demon.

--- Quote ---  I think you are confused, it isn't Thomas' demon Hunger that is feeding on her, it is their baby's Hunger demon.. Unless because Thomas is half non vamp, and Justine is all vanilla human, their child had no Hunger demon.  If that is the case, poor Thomas put himself through a lot for nothing.

Why should the true love protection work against the demon inside the child in the womb? I see no reason why it has to though Jim could decide so. But I think he did not.

And of course the baby hunger is feeding on her but that does not mean Thomas hunger does not want to feed on her and fed on her in the past. Until Thomas stopped.

No, she had sex with another person, that ended her protection, then her and Thomas could touch each other and have sex without him getting burned.  Harry was protected by his and Susan's love from Lara's kiss, it burned her.  When he had sex with Luccio the protection ended.

It doesn't apparently, because the Hunger in the embryo is feeding off of Justine.  If she still had true love's protection, it couldn't do that, it would burn it. 

Thomas' Hunger has nothing to do with it, he is feeding elsewhere.

Thomas in chapter one is not a stable well fed vampire. It reads as the beginning of a collapse.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Thomas was feeding on Evanna and other Swartalves, a bit here a bit there.

But what he is worried about is this..

--- Quote ---"The usual, mostly, Except that the baby's Hunger will draw life energy from Justine.  She's going to be fed upon continuously for the next seven and a half months.
I studied him.  "Is that dangerous?"
He swallowed.  "According to the family records, just over fifty percent either don't survive the delivery or die shortly after."

--- End quote ---

It isn't about Thomas starving himself or feeding off of Justine, it is about the baby's Hunger feeding off of her to the point where she is too weak to survive giving birth.
