Women who were visibly pregnant upon arriving at camps would have been sent straight to the gas chambers. Women who weren’t visibly pregnant probably would have been sent straight to the gas chambers as soon as they started showing. If they were able to hide their pregnancy, they probably wouldn’t be able to hide the baby and soon enough the baby and the mother would be sent to the gas chambers or hung or shot. And it was nearly impossible for women to get pregnant while in the camps. The men and the women were kept apart.

Sadly, they were killed as everyone else. Mostly, women and children were sent right to the gas chamber, as men could provide more slave labor.

Gender or condition didn’t keep women out of the gas chamber.

The were usually killed just like everyone else…assuming that you are talking bout Jewish women. Women and children were usually killed before the men because the men could provide more slave labor before they died of starvation.

Typically, these women would have been disposed of. Occasionally, medical experiments would be performed on them but eventually the horrible inevitability would be committed.
