Is Grendel's mother a demon or a descendant of Cain?

And why did Beowulf only bring Grendel's head back? Why not the mother's?

The head would have been very heavy I suppose, I'm not sure he would have been able to carry two troll heads at the same time as his armour and weapons

Both. In the mind of the author of Beowulf, all trolls, demons, etc. arose from Cain's blood.

Doesn't Beowulf reach Grendel's Mother's grotto by swimming underneath a pitch black pond teeming with vicious sea creatures? That could make head carrying pretty difficult.
