Hey, my friend’s sister just went into labor. It’s a little bit premature (36 weeks, I think) so let’s focus positive thoughts and work this trivia on movies featuring pregnancy and/or childbirth:
1. She hit her head and then eloped. When she woke up, she couldn’t remember who she’d married.
Solved by Hogan (comment #4).
2. Doing the laundry, he is appalled by how huge maternity panties are.
Solved by Tracy (comment #8).
3. “You have a girl. Unless I cut the wrong cord.”
Solved by George (comment #6).
4. In this classic, the heroine helps her beloved’s wife give birth.
Solved by Wendy (comment #2).
5. “Can’t we just, like, kick this old school? Like, I have the baby, put it in a basket and send it your way, like, Moses and the reeds?”
Solved by Wendy (comment #2).
6. A woman becomes pregnant while in a coma.
Solved by Erik (comment #3).
7. The first of many movies that combines a famous director, a famous star, and the director’s signature location.
Solved by Melville (comment #5).
All day I waited. And I don’t know any of these.

(Finally saw this early enough!)
4. Gone With the Wind
5. Juno
6. Talk to Her
#1 – Miracle of Morgan’s Creek (awesome)
I was about to go to bed, then remembered I hadn’t checked back here.
Is #7 Stagecoach (John Ford, John Wayne, Monument Valley)?
Shoot, Hogan beat me to #1. Love that movie, though.
#3 is “Nine Months.”
So far so good, folks. Only one to go.
And it’s a boy, healthy, happy, all good.
#2 “She’s Having A Bady”
