I don't know that I'd agree that Malia stole the power but that's simply due to my personal views. Desert Wolf may feel as if her power was stolen but I believe it comes down to a matter of opinion.

Real life example: My sister had the calcium levels in her system severely compromised when she gave birth to my nephew leading to much of her teeth rotting out earlier than reasonably expected. The Doctor certainly never accused my nephew of 'stealing' the calcium but explained that his need of calcium was more than what was being provided. It was simply a natural occurrence that overtaxed my sister's body.

I think it depends on each individuals viewpoint. Some may view the fetus as a parasite stealing the resources of its parent host, which I think the Desert Wolf subscribes to, while others see it as merely part of the cycle of pregnancy.
