Pregnancy Movies and TV Shows

What are some of your favorite pregnancy movies and tv shows?  I find myself watching them a lot more being pregnant and I'm sure I'm not the only one.  I really like What to Expect When You're Expecting.

  • Call the Midwife!!!!!!

    So so so so *so* good, and the first four seasons are on Netflix.

    It's about British midwives/nurses in the (very poor) East End of London in the 1950's and 1960's. A fantastic show, and I've learned a lot about childbirth from it (also, about how much things have changed!).

    It's also really comforting (for me) because it reminds me that people have been doing this "birth" thing for quite some time and in less than stellar conditions. 
  • The Back Up Plan with Jlo. I'm a sucker for a girlie Jlo movie though.

    And I really miss Rattled.

  • Jane the Virgin (season 1) was so fun to watch while pregnant!

  • A weird and old one: junior :-)

    Junior is horrible but I love it!  I remember my mom would never let us rent it, "she said it is just plain wrong"...but then she would let us rent horror movies lol.

    I also have 3 men and a baby saved on demand
  • I gotta say I watched a horror movie where a woman tried to steal another woman's baby from the womb. Usually horror movies don't get me too bad but that one left me crying and very wary of strangers!!

  • Speaking of pregnancy in movies/TV shows- has anyone else noticed they get *so many* things wrong about pregnancy? I've seen a couple shows lately where the woman looked 7 months pregnant right at the beginning of pregnancy, or they find out the sex on an ultrasound ridiculously early (like, at around 8 weeks).
