Magical Negro: Parodied. The midwife Grace is Black, and Lucy hallucinated a bunch of "tribal" imagery in her office simply because that was how she felt more comfortable.

Improbable Infant Survival
 False Positive / int_550754dc
comment
Improbable Infant Survival: Played with. Lucy's sons improbably survived the abortion that Lucy thought she had, while her daughter did not. Then it gets played straight because Lucy pretends to drop the babies out of the window and kill them, but she's ultimately pretending.

Gaslighting: Following a successful treatment of artificial insemination, Lucy begins to suspect that Dr. Hindle is doing this to her, such as by denying that he aborted her "parasitic" twins.

Bloody Horror: The film opens with a shot of a blood-spattered Lucy walking through deserted streets. That shot is from when she returns from confronting Dr. Hindle at the clinic.

Men Are Better Than Women: Dr Hindle and Adrian both believe this, as they conspire to override Lucy's wishes and not abort her baby sons in order to "carry on" Hindle's line more strongly.

Shout-Out
 False Positive / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Lucy's Affably Evil husband is called Adrian. Lucy wants to call her baby Wendy. Dr Hindle's surname seems to come from Art Hindle, who starred in The Brood (a movie by David Cronenberg, who also directed Dead Ringers about creepy body horror gynaecologists.)
