If there'll be a ME4; Shepard wont be in it.

Well any pregnancies for Femshep would have to have happened around Mass Effect 3.
But really, why does it seem that people want Mass Effect to be come 'Let's Play House'? Not trying to be insulting, I'm just curious.

Given the fact that Sheppie has a nice house earned by beating the Pinnacle Station training-missions, it makes sense that a future Sheppie-centric ME (if that ever happens), revolves a lot around his/her domestic life with his/her LI.
Lots of "you don't understand me!" conflict. ^^

Medbay Upgrade -> Abortion
Would be a pretty unwelcome distraction, plotwise. Always have to tread pretty lightly around kids, and ultimately, like in movies, most of the time they just come off as a cheap and lazy plot device
Would be sweet if Liara got pregnant though (Although my femshep was/is ALL ABOUT Liara so I'm biased).

liara is there with femshep all the way ! what's the difference between liara and femshep being pregnant? none.
therefore , i do not understand your logic. you would like liara to be pregnant but not shep , now why is that?
Any danger faced by shep is faced by Liara as well and as much as it would be a distraction for shep it would be the same for liara and therefore shep by extension ..

Because Liara can be pushed into the background ME2 style. Shep is frontline and faced with all the toughest decisions and situations. Liara's pregnancy is simply a development of your romance, Sheperd's pregnancy is a bigger deal when she's obliged to be running around getting shot at all the time. Shep's also the more versatile character and pregnancy is a big modifier to behaviour. Writers can't do much with a pregnant character because people will probably get outraged at some point, and this in turn would blur the lines between renegade/paragon I'd think. Plus a pregnant renegade femshep is trashy

Well we don't know what Asari pregnancy is like. Maybe Liara would suddenly be ok with the end of the known universe. In any case if they are faced with extinction at that point I think it's fair to say that Liara has enough tact not to tell femshep she's pregnant. She's always been pretty considerate whenever Shep has things on her plate.
I have no problem with femshep getting pregnant or Liara getting pregnant. It's just the timing really. If at the end of ME4 I found out Liara was pregnant with my femshep's baby I'd probably be in tears and everything, but middle of the game, on the cusp of the destruction of all organic life she tells me she's pregnant, it'd be like 'Come on, really?'

My main Shepard (renegade bad-ass) chose refuse, so no space kids for her. Though she did bang Liara before her death so there is a possibility her kids died with their mom in that sad bunker while listening to her self-pitious ramblings about us failing. We didn't fail, we beat the reapers by dying! **** yeah!
My googly-eyed paragon-Shepard (who's such a tool) on the other hand banged Ashley and then went for the lame-o synthesis ending with sappy hopes for worldpeace.. I don't know what that green radiation does to the embryo, but I could see the Shep-kid(s) being interesting abominations.

Yeah in 3 out of the 4 possible endings Shepard either died or shed her human form for Reaper Form, and in the one where Shepard survived since her neural and cybernetic implants would have been destroyed by the crucible she would most likely end up permanently disabled.
They can rebuild her. They have the technology … or maybe they don’t. Damn.
As to the actual question, a pregnancy predefines Shepard too much. This got a bit out of hand in ME3 as it is, don’t need it amplified. That’s just one of the many, many, many reasons this is a bad idea for anything other than fanfic.
Also, for some reason I'm getting visions of the mating scene in Alien: Resurrection.
