Couple weeks ago I watched movie trailer ‘Bad Moms’. My first thought was that it can be quite nice comedy for every Mothers. Then I realised that actually I have list of movies for every parents. I decided to share it with you.
From surrogates and unexpected pregnancies to teenage pregnancies, movies for mums-to-be, for whole families and both parents. I have compiled a list of 10 movies that will keep you entertained, make you smile and a little bit sad but certainly you will be moved and happy. Check them below. Also don’t forget to write in comments if you watched them and what do you think about that kind of movies:)
#1 What to Expect When You’re Expecting (2012)
The plot: Follows the lives of five interconnected couples as they experience the thrills and surprises of having a baby. Realize that no matter what you plan for, life does not always deliver what is expected.
Why I love it: I was laughing, crying and even my husband was watching it with me. Some of the situations are quite autentic.
#2 The Back-Up Plan (2010)
The plot: Zoe is a woman who has a hard time letting anyone into her life. She has a habit of pushing people away whenever they get close. She wants to have a baby but because she has no man in her life, she decides to be artificially inseminated. Shortly after having the procedure she meets a guy named Stan, and she feels a spark.
Why I love it: It’s nice to know that man can love babies even if they he is not biological father.
#3 Junior (1994)
The plot: A dedicated research scientist gets much more than he bargained for. An enterprising gynecologist persuades him to become the first human test subject for a wonder drug that ensures healthy pregnancies.
Why I love it: It’s nice to see a pregnant man!
#4 Look Who’s Talking (1989)
The plot: After a single, career-minded woman is left on her own to give birth to the child of a married man, she finds a new romantic chance in a cab driver. Meanwhile, the point-of-view of the newborn boy is narrated through voice-over.
Why I love it: One of the most funniest movie! Sometimes I like to think that my son is talking something to me:)
#5 Juno (2007)
The plot: A tale told over four seasons, starting in autumn when Juno, a 16-year-old high-school junior in Minnesota, discovers she’s pregnant after one event in a chair with her best friend, Bleeker. In the waiting room of an abortion clinic, the quirky and whip-sharp Juno decides to give birth and to place the child with an adoptive couple.
Why I love it: When you are young it is really hard to be a mum. To be honest is hard in every age. When I was watching it I was happy that so young woman decide to not to get abortion.
#6 Knocked Up (2007)
The plot: For fun-loving party animal Ben Stone, the last thing he ever expected was for his one-night stand to show up on his doorstep eight weeks later to tell him she’s pregnant with his child.
Why I love it: First time I saw it when I was young and didn’t think about babies. Second time I was already pregnant and I had a great time. If you want to have a fun you should see it.
#7 Baby’s day out (1994)
The plot: Baby Bink couldn’t ask for more; he has adoring parents, he lives in a huge mansion, and he’s just about to appear in the social pages of the paper. Unfortunately, not everyone in the world is as nice as Baby Bink’s parents; especially the three enterprising kidnappers who pretend to be photographers from the newspaper. Successfully kidnapping Baby Bink, they have a harder time keeping hold of the rascal, who not only keeps one step ahead of them, but seems to be more than a little bit smarter than the three bumbling criminals.
Why I love it: You should watch it to see how little babies are creative 😉 I’m quite scared 😀
#8 Three Men And A Baby (1987)
The plot: Three bachelor friends – architect Peter, artist Michael, and actor Jack are sharing an apartment in Manhattan. After Jack goes filming in Turkey his two flatmates find his baby daughter – which Jack doesn’t know about – left outside their door. The two are left to look after the baby, and realise how difficult this can be. How would this baby change the life style of these confirmed bachelors?
Why I love it: Can you believe that men can handle with baby? Yes, they can take care of baby and it’s look like is big fun for them:D
#9 Life as We Know It (2010)
The plot: Holly and Eric were set up on a blind date by their friends, Peter and Allison who are married. After Peter and Allison are killed in an accident, they learn that they have been named as the guardians to Peter and Allison’s daughter, Sophie. So they move into their house and try their best to honor their friends’ wishes. But raising a child puts a crimp on their style and they don’t exactly get along.
Why I love it: If you didn’t choose godparents for your baby you should watch it. It’s really important decision!
#10 Parenthood (1989)
The plot: The Buckmans are a midwestern family all dealing with their lives: estranged relatives, raising children, pressures of the job, and learning to be a good parent and spouse.
Why I love it: If you want to know how being parent can look like you should watch it with your partner.
So to watch them you should prepare tissues, popcorn, juice and someone who will share joy with you. Now question to all Mummies which movies did you enjoy watching during your pregnancy? Do you have anything to add to my list?

Cool! Not a parent yet, but I’ll keep these in mind before I decide to become one! 😉
17 September 2016 at 14:16I loved “What to expect when you’re expecting”. It was so funny. What a great list you have. I have seen many of them. Pregnancy and parenting are really all of those things, isn’t it? Comedy, drama etc.
17 September 2016 at 14:26oh yes adrama and comedy in one sentence:D
17 September 2016 at 14:40I loved Look Who’s Talking… omg, I has completely forgotten this movie. Great list!
17 September 2016 at 14:47I guess I am pretty prepared. I have seen 8 out of 10. They are all pretty hilarious. Sad part is most of the stuff depicted is pretty true as I have witnessed it first hand with my sisters pregnancies. Oh how I wish men could bare children. I think I’ll wait til that day before having my own.
17 September 2016 at 14:49I really like alot of these movies

19 September 2016 at 19:15Oh I love What to Expect When You’re Expecting!! It’s so funny! I watched this when I was pregnant with my 3rd baby. Junior is a funny movie, too. And Parenthood…that’s a classic that I think will always be a great treasure.

19 September 2016 at 19:50great movie list up here, will definitely be good being a parent, but for now as am still not a parent yet, let me see how and what the future holds…
19 September 2016 at 20:43Great recommendations. I have seen most of them. #MarvMondays
19 September 2016 at 22:02What a great list! It is so much fun to watch what the pregnancy journey will be and the hilarity of what being parents looks like!
19 September 2016 at 23:33I’ve seen most of these. There are some great movies.
19 September 2016 at 23:45The only movie i did not watch in this list is #3. The rest i have watch most of them. And the one i like the most is number one.
20 September 2016 at 05:29Thank you! You have just inspired me, after making some terrible cinematic decisions while pregnant I am now going to write a list of movies *not* to watch while pregnant/a parent! I have bookmarked this post so that I can let you know when it’s done and include backlinks to your blog with credit for the inspiration, if that’s okay 🙂 #eatsleepblogRT
20 September 2016 at 14:20oh thank you of course you can my pleasure:)
20 September 2016 at 19:27Lots of great suggestions from lots of laughs to lots of tears. I can not believe I have not seen Juno yet #marvmondays
20 September 2016 at 17:52Some great movies lots of laughs and tears, plus how have I not seen Juno #marvmondays
20 September 2016 at 17:53So many favourites from my childhood and teenage years here! Junior, Look Who’s Talking, Parenthood, Three Men and a Baby – love them all! (even if some of them aren’t ‘the best’ films!) In all honesty, I blocked out watching any films to do with pregnancy and birth while I was pregnant – I think I had my head a bit in the sand! Thanks so much for joining us at #SharingtheBlogLove
20 September 2016 at 20:23Oh love Look Who’s talking just for the voice overs of the baby and the Intro! I actually haven’t seen a few of these so I will do next time (if there’s a next time!)
20 September 2016 at 21:33#TwinklyTuesday
You can watch them even without being pregnant because they are so funny:)
22 September 2016 at 18:48Very cute post, I have a baby shower game that incorporates a lot of these movies. haha.
20 September 2016 at 21:46I love all these. My favourite is what to expect when you are expecting, I watch it again and again. Thank you for joining us at #SharingtheBlogLove x
20 September 2016 at 22:42I love to watch them again and again as well:D
22 September 2016 at 18:47That is a great movie marathon!! Love Juno, it’s so well done! #bigpinklink
21 September 2016 at 03:52I’ve seen 9/10 of these movies and I love the classics! Funny enough I was telling my friend, who’s also a mummy, to watch what to expect when you’re expecting. Great list x #MarvMondays
21 September 2016 at 07:55thank you 🙂
22 September 2016 at 18:43thank you:)
22 September 2016 at 18:46Juno is one of my favourite films ever..I love it! I have seen a few of these but there are lots I need go catch up on before baby arrives! Fab list xx #bigpinklink
21 September 2016 at 11:20My 3 year old is always asking to watch “the movie with the talking baby” lol.. I loved it as a kid so I’m kind of glad that she likes it too! Haha! Junior is another favourite of mine and also Nine Months 🙂 #MarvMondays
21 September 2016 at 19:52Right! That’s my movie night sorted out then. I have not seen #1, 5, & 9 yet. So exciting! I love movies but I do struggled on what to watch. I think my favourite one on the list that I have which is Parenthood. Awesome! 🙂 Thank you so much for linking up with us on #FabFridayPost

22 September 2016 at 23:42These are fab! I’ve seen about half of them. Knocked up always makes me laugh but you can’t beat the 3 men and a series in my book! 😀 Thanks for sharing with the #bigpinklink
24 September 2016 at 13:50These are all great picks! I love finding movies I can relate to as a parent.
24 September 2016 at 15:54I love Look who’s talking and Three men and a baby
24 September 2016 at 16:51#MarvMondays
Great list. I have seen some, but not all of the films on your list. Lots of great ones here. I loved what to expect, but I think the oldest films are the best films – look whos talking, babys day out, three men and a little lady, they just dont make them like the used to do they 😉 Thanks for sharing this on #MarvMondays. Emily
24 September 2016 at 22:46Oh my word, this made me smile, so many memories. I love the Look Who’s Talking and also three men and a baby – think my children would love that one. I’ve already introduced them to Baby’s Day Out! Thanks for sharing and for linking up to #AnythingGoes Janet
25 September 2016 at 12:29I’ve seen about half of these. Forgot about Look Who’s Talking – not seen that in years! I like Knocked Up – like Seth Rogen. # anythinggoes
25 September 2016 at 20:40Great choices. I love Juno! #bigpinklink
