It was too big a thing for the standalones to deal with, I think. Those are meant to be fun or whatever, but the baby plotline requires Amy and Rory to be upset. The two just don't gel. It was too serious/dark a thing for DW, I reckons, which is a bit surprising in a way because I always think of Rusty as the darker writer. Something like the Doctor's death you can carry on with it hardly or never mentioned, but not the baby. It's very strange to me that they did that.
