The opposite of Screaming Birth. When a show wants to avoid showing a woman's labor and delivery, usually because it would be unsuitable for the format (too graphic for a children's show, too serious for a comedy), birth becomes as simple as going offscreen. One quick trip to the hospital — or a bedroom, or a phone booth, or even Behind the Black — and Baby is here. Rarely Truth in Television for human mothers, though childbirth can be relatively quick and painless. While the shortest recorded time for an American woman in labor in the last hundred years with both the child and the mother surviving is 23 minutes, the national average is just over six hours. Labor and delivery are hard enough on mother and baby when things are proceeding normally; a faster delivery means even more stress, so shorter is not necessarily better. Can cross with Born in an Elevator, though that trope is usually accompanied by a Screaming Birth and should be added to the appropriate page. Usually appears in conjunction with Clean, Pretty Childbirth. Not to be confused with Express Delivery, where the course of a character's pregnancy takes much less time than it should. Compare Instant Birth: Just Add Labor!, where the labor and delivery happen in-show but progress faster than they do in Real Life. |

Stardew Valley: If you have a heterosexual marriage and have agreed to have children, you/your wife will have the birth taken care of late one night at an unspecified hospital, with no complications and no prior signs of pregnancy. (If you have a homosexual marriage, a representative from the adoption agency will show up with a kid instead. Yes, in the middle of the night.) | |

Implied in one Calvin and Hobbes strip, in which Susie and Calvin are playing house. Susie walks in the door, saying, "I stopped by the hospital on the way home from work!" and reveals their new baby. Of course, this could be justified by the fact that these are two six-year-old kids who likely wouldn't understand how giving birth actually works. | |

On King of the Hill, Peggy's flashback to Bobby's birth reveals that she was on so many painkillers that from her perspective, she basically checked into her hospital room, had a wonderful nap, and woke up in the car on the way home a few days later. Obviously not quite Truth in Television. | |

In Crybaby, Pepper Walker gives birth in the back seat of a car that is in the middle of a game of high-speed chicken. The whole thing takes about three minutes to resolve. | |

In the early Berenstain Bears book The Berenstain Bears' New Baby, which features the birth of Sister Bear, Papa and Small (soon to be Brother) Bear go out in the morning with Mama seeing them off, pregnant but not yet in labor. They come home that night to find Sister already born and Mama up and about taking care of her. Averted in the later book The Birds and the Bees and the Berenstain Bears, which features the birth of Honey Bear and gives Mama a more realistic pregnancy and hospital delivery. | |

In The House Bunny, there is a girl who is pregnant, and towards the end, the sorority is fighting for recognition. The pregnant girl is wheeled back in still in her hospital bed, with a baby wrapped in a pink blanket. (Which is counted as a member of the sorority.) | |

One episode of Peppa Pig has Mummy Rabbit visiting the Pigs after becoming pregnant. When her and the rest of the family go to the hospital when she's ready to give birth, she somehow manages to give birth to twins in under a minute while we see Daddy Rabbit unpacking the luggage from the car for what was going to be their hospital stay. | |

In Shortpacked!, Robin, a Differently Powered Individual whose specific power is Super-Speed, in a lesbian relationship, gets pregnant instead of her fiancée (as they'd originally planned) after finding out that she can carry a baby to term in only three weeks. Not only does she carry triplets during that time, but she gives birth so quickly that she can't even get to the hospital until the babies are out, at which point she's completely recovered anyway. | |

A female dwarf in Dwarf Fortress will give birth in the middle of a task, pick up the baby and go right back to what she was doing. Not quite a straight example on account of DF suffering from a fairly extreme case of Video Game Time. |

In The Sims 2, a woman (or man) will give birth after a bit of labor pain and then be ready to go to work the same day. It may be due to Video Game Time of course, and the parent can choose to stay home and use her (or his) maternity leave to care for the baby. In The Sims 3, they can go to the hospital if they want, but it's no trouble for them to drive, walk, or bike there on their own when the baby is already ready to pop out. |

Futurama: In "Why Must I Be A Crustacean in Love?", Zoidberg's hormonal rampage is so terrifying to a group of pregnant woman that it causes one of them to suddenly and instant give birth. When a request for a doctor causes Zoidberg to pop back back into the room, several more women do the same. Used in "The Luck of the Fryrish", subverting Screaming Birth where Fry's mother turns out to be screaming at the sports game on the radio. In "Law and Oracle", Chief O'Mannahan excuses herself to "drop a big one", ducks into a bathroom, and emerges roughly a minute later holding a freshly delivered baby with no prior indication that she was even pregnant. |

In the film Perfume, Grenouille's mother gives birth to him while standing at her outdoor shop's counter. While a customer is there. It takes her just a minute to pump him out, and the confused customer only wonders for a short while why this woman was suddenly collapsing and screaming. | |

Family Guy: In "Stuck Together, Torn Apart", Peter is talking to a very fat woman (one of his ex-girlfriends) when suddenly a baby simply falls out of her, causing her to shout out to her offscreen husband, "You were right! I was pregnant!" In "The Thin White Line", Peter and Brian prank the occupants of a Teen Pregnancy Center by putting their hands in bowls of warm water while they are sleeping. They quickly leave the room and start giggling to each other until the sounds of many crying babies are suddenly heard from offscreen, whereupon they run away (and still get caught offscreen). |
