If I am interpreting it right, what is actually being said is that the mother or the father could be the one who was attacked and the trait then stays with the mother until child birth. What I get from this is that if the father is the one who was attacked, it is passed on to the child in their genetics and technically the trait is in the mother until the child is born. That is how I read it and interpreted based on my limited knowledge of genetics.
