Movie Cliches: Pregnancy/Childbirth


The fact that a woman is pregnant or the fact that she notes her pregnancy is introduced by a scene where you hear the woman vomit.


Whenever a woman announces to her husband/boyfriend that she's pregnant, it comes as a complete surprise to him, whether pleasantly or otherwise.


No one is in labor for hours and hours... they pop out babies in a matter of minutes.


No one is ever offered an epidural or medication, everyone uses lamaze (pant method), but they often scream at & demean those around them.


Most babies are born clean, with perfectly shaped heads and dry hair.


All movie babies are born HUGE, usually the size of the average two month old.


Women who give birth are perfectly made up afterwards.
