A female character lies about being pregnant. This can be done for a variety of reasons: perhaps the character is trying to get her boyfriend not to break up with her due to a misguided belief that Babies Make Everything Better; perhaps (conversely) she is trying to scare her boyfriend off; perhaps she is trying to get another character to give her unofficial child support. This could also be done as part of a Family Relationship Switcheroo (in which, for example, a daughter gets pregnant out of wedlock, and her mother fakes a pregnancy in an effort to pass the baby off as her own, rather than her daughter's). In historical dramas, this might also be done to stave off a capital sentence, as it used to be forbidden in Europe to put a pregnant woman to death. A variant is when one character claims this on behalf of another female character, who is then forced to play along or expose the charade. This can be an example of The Baby Trap. Pillow Pregnancy is a sub-trope. Daddy DNA Test can be related. Needless to say, this trope can carry the Unfortunate Implications of presenting women as manipulative liars. For other variations on faking medical situations, see Playing Sick and Obfuscating Disability. Examples |

Bojack Horseman: when Diane, ghostwriter for Sextina Aquafina's tweets, accidentally tweets that 'Sextina' is getting an abortion, Sextina, along with her agent Princess Carolyn, decide to spin this to her advantage and she becomes the face of the pro-choice movement, culminating in her getting a fake abortion live on television (which, to her credit, was quite educational and done tastefully). Then Sextina gets pregnant for real, decides to keep it, and quietly retires to have her baby. | |

Legend of Mana, in a minor quest, had a female penguin imply to her pirate boyfriend, who was about to go to sea for an extended period of time, that she had an egg. At the end of the quest, she says she was misunderstood and was only musing about the possibility of having an egg. Then, when he's out of earshot, she admits that she lied the second time and Just Wanted Her Beloved To Be Happy. | |

A variation on The Mysteries of Laura. When a fertility doctor is murdered, Laura and her ex-husband go undercover as a couple where a sonogram shows Laura is pregnant. Given she hasn't been with a man in months, she knows something is up and swiftly figures this is a massive con. The clinic makes rich couples think they're expecting, charge them for expensive "treatments" and then a drug that mimics miscarriage. The killer was a husband whose wife nearly had a breakdown after several "miscarriages." He reveals he figured it out as he's a film editor and on the third go-around, realized the "ultrasound" was the exact same footage as the previous two "pregnancies." | |

In Home and Away, when Reese discovered that Kirsty and Kane had got married, he yelled at them to give him a reason why their marriage should not be split up (Reese hated Kane). Kirsty yells at Reese that she is pregnant — a lie that she then has to maintain after Kane tells her how happy he is. Kirsty then later has to fake a miscarriage and then discovers later that she is genuinely pregnant. | |

School Days: Kotonoha claims Sekai was faking her pregnancy in a bid to make Makoto choose her. After she kills Sekai, she literally cuts Sekai open to check, and says she was right.

The fictional woman repeatedly alludes to lying to men about being pregnant, for various reasons. | |

She immediately figures this out but takes advantage of his ignorance about sex to claim that women have to take the pill every day or they automatically get pregnant, meaning that he's now the father of her child. Hank and Peggy even get involved and throw a fake Shotgun Wedding. | |

Nyaruko: Crawling with Love!: Played for Laughs in Episode 7 of the first TV series; Nyarko claims that she's pregnant with Mahiro's child the very next morning, and can even be seen doing Lamaze breathing exercises in the background (note that they haven't even had sex to begin with, she's lying about that too). To Mahiro's annoyance, everyone believes it, including his level-headed friend Yoichi and his own mother, though in her case it might have just been I Want Grandkids. When Hasta believes it and runs off crying, Mahiro quietly mutters "Well, maybe it's okay for him to believe it..." | |

A Luann storyline from June and July 2020 had Ann Eiffel planning to pull this on her boyfriend Tom (Tiffany's dad) just in case he didn't propose to her during a vacation they were on. However, her plan fell apart when Tiffany, who was house-sitting, found her ultrasound in an envelope marked to Tom, forcing Ann to go along with it despite getting the proposal. She got caught when Tiffany discovered that the ultrasound was of her estranged son, Les, who had a copy in his possession. | |

In Chicago (both the theatre and film versions), Roxie Hart fakes a pregnancy in order to gain public attention and sympathy leading up to her murder trial. She does this in part because Illinois executes its first woman during her incarceration and she suddenly fears for her life, believing that a jury won't give the death penalty to an allegedly pregnant woman. (The other part is she is a relentless Attention Whore.) | |

That '90s Show: In the pilot episode, the guys are mistaken for customers picking up a pre-paid beer keg at a local liquor store. Unfortunately, they forget to ask for a tap, and it falls on 15-year-old Leia (the new girl, whom the owner doesn't know) to pick one up. To make her look more believably "adult", the kids stick a pillow under her sundress. The shop owner sees through the ruse after Leia's "pregnancy bump" slides down to her legs. | |

M*A*S*H. This was the subject of an episode that was ultimately never filmed, as at the time it was considered too risqué. The episode, entitled "Hawkeye on the Double," had Hawkeye seeing two different nurses behind each of their backs, and when the two found out about each other, they planned on getting back at him by both pretending to be pregnant with his child and pressuring him into choosing which one of them to marry. The script for the episode is available as a special feature on DVD. Played for Laughs in one episode where Klinger puts on a fake baby bump. He explains that he doesn't really expect anyone to buy it; rather, he's pretending to think it will work in hopes that someone will think that only a crazy person would expect it to work. Naturally, it fails. |

On The Cleveland Show, Donna and Cleveland decide to have a baby. However, Cleveland eventually discovers he had a vasectomy while drunk a while back, but can't break the news to Donna. Donna eventually finds out and pretends to be pregnant to mess with him. She won't admit to lying until he admits to lying about the vasectomy; Cleveland finds out and won't give in until Donna admits she's not pregnant, and the two basically spend nine months carrying on a battle of wills. | |

Used on at least one episode of Law & Order. When a wealthy couple's teenage daughter is murdered shortly before their older daughter's wedding to an equally wealthy man, the detectives and attorneys eventually unravel the Family Relationship Switcheroo. Their older daughter got pregnant as a teenager. The whole family moved to Brazil for a year, then returned claiming that the new baby was actually the mother's. When the baby reached her teen years, she learned the truth and threatened to reveal it, which would have ruined the upcoming wedding, so the mother murdered the (grand)daughter to hush it up. | |

House of the Dragon: Early in Season 1, Daemon Targaryen says his paramour Mysaria is pregnant, and so the reason he steals a dragon egg is to put it in the baby's cradle per the custom for trueborn Targaryen children. She's not, though. A follow-on effect is that Mysaria not actually being pregnant means she won't later miscarry while being sent back to Lys at Viserys's command, as she does in the book. The source material has unrealistically high rates of pregnancy disasters, so removing one instance makes it incrementally Lighter and Softer, as well as less repetitive. It also makes Viserys look like less of a jerk (and Daemon more of one). | |

On The Big C, Cathy wants to adopt a child before she dies of cancer, meeting a nice young couple and is ready to pay for their childbirth and the adoption. When she "wins" (really, steals) a car from a charity auction, Cathy drives it to the couple's hotel as a surprise present. However, through the room's window, she sees the couple drinking and smoking with the woman quite clearly not pregnant. She drives them to the woods, kicks the woman in her fake gut, and berates them for pulling this massive scam on her, eventually forcing them to strip to their underwear and run off at gunpoint. | |

After accidentally killing Chrysalis, Shining finds the infant and takes her home. Cadance fakes being pregnant and "gives birth" a month or two afterwards. The short pregnancy is explained by her being an alicorn (and everyone buys it because no alicorn has been pregnant before). | |
