All indications are that she would deliberately trip him to achieve this.
Ed0517:
Here's some thoughts....
What if the low fertility rate amongst Whamps is on one side. The men. They only kick out a few hundred at a time (human normal is in the millions). So - Thomas is not likely to have many children. Harry, presumably, would produce more.
Lara as Winter Lady, replacing Molly? Mab could be playing the long game. What about the hypothetical daughter of Harry and Lara? Wizard genes, a strong line, and Whamp blood too? Possible hybrid vigor too - she could be very dangerous.
And, while I think this unlikely - sorry Thomas - what makes us 100% sure the baby is Thomas'? If the shadow of a Fallen Angel can make a spirit of intellect with harry... can Nemesis do anything with a woman? Parthenogenesis?

If you go that route, she does not even have to be pregnant.
But it is far more likely that nemesis somehow tweaked the conception a bit than that Nemesis faked a pregnancy.
TrueMonk:
I guess one of Mabs key comcers is always going to be having good hosts ready to take over mantle (s). She just used up two good ones. At the same time nemesis is very active at the moment, so if e.g. Molly needs to be replaced the replacement needs to be effective from day one (and Lara would be).

As the winter lady, Lara would be required to be celebate, whether she wanted to be or not (see Carlos' injuries). How could a whampire survive for the (potentially) hundreds of years between her taking the Winter Lady mantle and her replacing Mab?
