Is there truth to the claim that there were no childbirths in the history of concentration camps during the holocaust?

by OutofPlaceOneLiner

Due to the separation of sexes and malnutrition there were no pregnancies or children at the camp. There was a popular question posted recently about a woman that performed abortions in concentration camps, but those could have happened before they arrived.

*Also, I mean childbirths where conception happened in the camp.

No. There were certainly births, although most children died, either gassed, killed by guards, or due to malnutrition/exposure. Some women, particularly non-Jewish political detainees, could avoid deportation if they revealed their pregnancy, but others were deported anyway. If you are asking if women had sex and got pregnant by male prisoners, I don't have sources on that, but others may have been raped and impregnated by guards (although they would likely have been killed along with any resulting children).
