"Baby Bottleneck" is a 1945 Warner Bothers cartoon (released in 1946) directed by Bob Clampett and written by Warren Foster. The cartoon features Daffy Duck and Porky Pig placed in charge of delivering babies when the overworked storks can't keep up with the demands of the baby boom. Things tend to go as they usually do.

Single-Task Robot: The conveyor belt has several robots the perform a single task when a baby rolls on them. Daffy and Porky get caught in the belt and one persistently puts them in one diaper as it’s what is meant to do.

Robotic Assembly Lines: Babies are rolled on a conveyor belt with robot hands that prepare them for delivery. Daffy and Porky get caught on it and the robots don't distinguish them from babies, and packs them as one baby.

Bowdlerisation
 Baby Bottleneck / int_98a72851
comment
Bowdlerisation: In the original cut of the scene with the baby crocodile trying to nurse from a sow, the sow tells the crocodile "Now don't touch that dial!", which the censors found too suggestive. However, the edit comes a few frames too late, leaving part of the shot in, to the confusion of the audience. Most TV versions cut it so that way the scene ends with the sow stopping the baby crocodile by pinning its tail to cover up the fact that a cut was made. Most versions of this cartoon shown on Cartoon Network and Boomerang cut the scene of the Jimmy Durante-esque stork who is literally drunken under the table and ranting about how the fathers get all the credit for delivering babies and the stork gets nothing.

Removable Shell: When a baby turtle comes up to the diaper changer on the conveyor belt, it ponders what to do before getting the idea to take the turtle out of his shell, put a diaper on him, then put him back in his shell. Later on, when the turtle comes to the milk feeding device, it ends up filling his shell with milk, forcing the little turtle to bail his shell out while yelling incoherently at the machine.

Shout-Out: A flock of crows are seen delivering a baby elephant. The mother gorilla's line at the end, "Mr. Anthony, I have a problem!", refers to "The Good Will Hour", a radio show of the time hosted by John J. Anthony, who specialized in solving marital problems.
