Ensign Samantha Wildman

Universe :	Prime Timeline
Name :	Ensign Samantha Wildman [1]
Species :	Humans

A crewmember aboard USS Voyager, Wildman was a xenobiologist who served on the ship during its time in the Delta Quadrant. She was pregnant when she came aboard, having been trying to become so for several months before. [2]She suffered shooting pains in her legs during pregnancy because the baby put pressure on her sciatic nerve. [3] Her husband was a Ktarian named Greskrendrek, and Samantha considered naming the child after him as this was a tradition in his family for more than five generations. [4] She ultimately named the child Naomi. Samantha gave birth in 2372, but the child died shortly afterwards. However, a duplicate Voyager which was created by a subspace divergence field also had a Naomi Wildman on board. When the duplicate ship was threatened with destruction, its captain sent the child to the original Voyager as a replacement. [5] Samantha was a dedicated watcher of Neelix's entertainment program. [6] In 2375 Samantha was almost killed when the Delta Flyer crash-landed on an uninhabited planet. She worried about Naomi's future without her, but was comforted by Tuvok's reassurance that she had been an exemplary mother to her child and that Naomi would continue to flourish on Voyager no matter what happened to her mother.
