A new baby is on the way! Usually this is great news because Babies Make Everything Better. The problem is that there is not enough space in the parents' home for another family member. The new parents may live in a small apartment in The City and move to a more spacious and kid friendly place in Suburbia. In another iteration, the parents already own a single family home, but they need to move because it's becoming too small for their growing family. The transition may happen on screen in a moving day episode, or offscreen at the end of the series along with Babies Ever After. In a less common alternative, the family puts an addition on their house instead of moving. See also The Moving Experience, Pregnancy Tropes, and Babies, Babies Everywhere. |

Played with in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air when Philip and Vivian push Hilary into moving into an apartment so they can use her room for the baby they're expecting. She gets around it by moving into the pool house, reasoning that she'll technically be out of the house and won't have to pay a ton of money to live there. Philip is disappointed, as he really wanted Hilary out of his hair. | |

A variant in 101 Dalmatians. Early in the film, Pongo and Perdita have fifteen puppies, and their human masters — Roger and Anita — are uncertain whether they will have room for all of them. Over the course of the movie, Pongo and Perdita rescue 84 more puppies from the villain. Luckily, by the time they get back to their masters, Roger has struck gold with a hit song, and he and Anita are easily persuaded to adopt all the puppies, with Roger gleefully announcing that "We'll buy a big place, in the country!" to accommodate them all. | |

In Bobby's World, when Martha is pregnant with the twins, the family decides they need to move to a bigger house, much to Bobby's discomfort. In the end, they only move into a house across the street from their old one, so it's not as big of a deal as Bobby originally thinks. | |

Charmed (1998): When Piper gets pregnant with Wyatt, Leo converts their closet into a nursery (and Grams is disgusted to learn that this is seemingly the only thing they've done to prepare for a new witch child). Phoebe and Paige briefly move out around the time Chris is born, allowing Piper to move her sons into their now-empty rooms. It's never explained where exactly the boys stay after the sisters move back in. | |
