Can daenerys still have children? (if we see the prophecy in a metaphorical manner)

I don't know if it's already posted, but u found an interesting article on the "citadel" on westeros.org. Here it is :-

"MIRRI MAZ DUUR’S PROPHECY

"When the sun rises in the west and sets in the

east," said Mirri Maz Duur. "When the seas go

dry and mountains blow in the wind like leaves.

When your womb quickens again, and you bear

a living child. Then he will return, and not

before."

This might be a real prophecy, or it may

simply be a sort of curse to strike terror and

despair into Daenerys's heart. The conditions

put forward have a distinct ring of fairy-tale

about them, and with Martin this could just as

easily be taken to work against the likelihood of

them coming true as in favour of it. For what it

is worth, however, it seems just possible that A

Dance with Dragons has satisfied most of the

conditions if read metaphorically. Consider that

Quentyn Martell -- "the Sun's son", referring to

the Martell sun -- journeyed from the west to the

east, where he died, that in Daenerys's last

chapter she notes that the Dothraki sea is going

dry and the grasses are dying, two of the

pyramids of Meereen collapse in smoke and ash

following Viserion and Rhaegel rampaging

through the city and that she menstruates (or

possibly suffers a miscarriage). This of course

leaves us the need for a living child, and then

the "return" of Drogo... though our speculation

is that if she has a child, it will be a son that she

names Drogo, thereby fulfilling Mirri's claim."

I think this is pretty convincing to ponder upon. What do you all say?
