Often when a fictional work features a pregnant teenage girl, she'll go into labor at the prom. Most likely because she got knocked up around homecoming. More subdued examples of when a child is conceived during prom night may occur as part of that child's backstory and set the tone for what kind of parental presence the child had growing up. May overlap with My Secret Pregnancy or a Surprise Pregnancy. |

On My Name Is Earl, Earl was jealous of his babysitter, and poked holes in her boyfriend's condom, which (of course) resulted in her getting pregnant. She had a Shotgun Wedding with her boyfriend, and gave birth during the reception, still in her wedding dress. | |

MAD once featured a series of fake magazine covers, including one called "Prom Mom" with articles like "Drinking the spiked punch: What the hell, it's not like anyone expects good judgment from you at this point!" | |

On the Degrassi Junior High episode "Pass Tense", Spike goes into labor during the end-of-year dance which is ironic that she was even allowed to attend since the school board had her removed from her classes as parents thought she was a bad example to the other students. | |

The Law & Order episode "Denial" played with this trope. The parents were college students, and the baby was actually born in a hotel, but shortly afterward, the parents attended a college dance as if nothing had happened. The story was later adapted into the Law & Order: UK episode "Bad Romance." | |
