Prevenge: Very literally. After the death of her partner, Ruth starts hearing the voice of her fetus telling her to kill people. More subtly, she was driven mad by learning that her now-deceased partner didn't want to have the kid. | |

Zigzagged in The Addams Family fanfiction Morticia Is Pregnant. While pregnant with Pugsley, Morticia wears shorts instead of her normal dress and she becomes much lazier. The others point out that this behavior is unusual, which suggests that it's because of the pregnancy, but Morticia acts Out of Character in moments when she isn't even pregnant and a lot of other characters are out-of-character too, so it's hard to tell. | |

Gilmore Girls: Sookie becomes extremely melodramatic during her pregnancies, in addition to her Wacky Cravings messing up her sense of smell to the point that she cooks food that tastes like manure and thinks it tastes fine. The second time, the Dragonfly Inn temporarily taking lunch off the menu for budget reasons makes Sookie hysterical, which makes her realize she's pregnant. Lorelai downplays this trope, as her only wacky pregnancy craving was a hankering for fruit, which actually is pretty crazy for her. | |

In Mr Monk And The Blue Flu, Natalie goes clothes shopping with her boss and a heavily pregnant woman rudely snatches a blouse Natalie wanted for Julie away from her. Natalie tries to take it in stride, telling herself that hormones can affect people nastily and the other woman might be very friendly otherwise. However, then Monk deduces that the woman is part of a shoplifting ring and her "baby bump" actually contains a bunch of stolen merchandise, including the blouse, which Natalie triumphantly reclaims. | |

In My Name Is Earl, Earl recalls how he once had a friend named Raynard, who let Earl and Randy crash with him when their father threw them out of the house (again). Not too much later, Earl had his Accidental Marriage to a very pregnant Joy (who had been kicked out of her parents' house for becoming pregnant out of wedlock). Raynard came knocking on Earl's trailer, saying that he got evicted and needed a place to stay. Earl replied that though he would love to help, he has a wife now, who's pregnant and as a result, irritable. Joy starts yelling at them that they're being too loud (they were whispering), and then tearfully accuses Earl of not caring about her, before wetting the bed. Earl feels guilty for not being able to help his friend. | |

Something*Positive has one arc - appropriately named "The Womb of Insanity" - where Tamara snaps at Mike over every little thing, including moments he's trying to be nice. PeeJee sets her straight about how unfair she's being, and that Mike is no longer an Extreme Doormat who's willing to take any level of abuse just to be with a woman. | |

General Hospital's Laura finds herself bursting into tears over everything and can't understand why. She complains "I haven't felt like this since. . ." then starts crying again as she says "Oh. . .that's right." Only this time, they're Tears of Joy, as she's recalling that the last time she felt like this was when she was pregnant and is realizing that she is again. | |

Amen: As hers and the Reverend's first anniversary approaches, Thelma displays everyone of the symptoms listed in the page description. Her father notes that her mother was the same way as their first anniversary arrived—"laughing and giggling one minute, throwing pots and pans at me the next. But she had a good excuse—she was pregnant." His, Amelia's, and Rolly's eyes widen as they realize the likely reason for Thelma's loopy behavior. Sure enough, she's expecting. She continues with this behavior for several episodes afterwards. | |

Inverted in the Cabin Fever fanfiction Cabin Fever: Promises To Keep. From Marcy's recollection, it seems she was suffering from severe depression and/or PTSD over the death of her friends (including the unwitting father of her baby) during the early weeks of her pregnancy. But the realization that she was about to become a mother with responsibilities prompted her to get her shit together and brought her back from the brink of madness to stability. | |

In the final chapter of the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fanfic Twilight's Love, Twilight becomes pregnant with her and Flash Sentry's child (a colt who they name Dusk Glow). During the later months of her pregnancy, Twilight became highly emotional and often lashed out at Flash. It happens to her again in the 3rd chapter of the next story The Young Prince where she is pregnant with a second child, a filly named Starlight Twinklenote The story was made before Starlight Glimmer was introduced. However, it was merely mentioned rather than going into detail about it. |

In the Warrior Cats book River of Fire, Dovewing explains that she'd left the Clan because she'd been having nightmares of the nursery being destroyed and her kits dying. Daisy exclaims that all she-cats have weird dreams when pregnant and she could have just told her that so there was no need to leave, but Alderheart isn't so convinced that it was just the paranoid worries of a pregnant she-cat, since the nursery was damaged while she was gone. | |

Star Trek: Voyager. Played for drama when Half-Human Hybrid B'Elanna Torres is going to give birth and wants the Doctor to genetically remove any Klingon traits from her child so she won't have to put up with the Fantastic Racism that B'Elanna did. Everyone else thinks her concerns are exaggerated, and given that B'Elanna is a tsundere it's not surprising she blows her top when she thinks she's being patronized. | |

In the I Love Lucy episode "Pregnant Women are Unpredictable", Lucy becomes insecure when Ricky gives their unborn child a lot of attention. Someone advises Ricky to pay attention to Lucy and only her for a while. This seems to cheer her up, but partway through dinner, she breaks down crying because Ricky hasn't talked about the baby at all and must not love him/her. | |

Friends: When Phoebe chooses to become a surrogate mother for her brother Frank, she becomes even more eccentric than usual. At one point, her friends decide to throw her a baby shower, to which she reacts by laughing hysterically, then crying for no reason. For the most part averted when Rachel is pregnant with Emma, but towards the end (especially when she is overdue) she becomes very cranky and snaps at everyone for little things like breathing too loudly. |
