Our suggestions
'Labor Pains' - A young woman pretends to be pregnant in order to avoid being fired from her job. When that gets her special treatment by everyone involved in her life, she tries to keep up the lie for nine months.
"Labor Pains, starring Lindsay Lohan and directed by Lara Shapiro, is a lighthearted and funny comedy about how far someone will go to keep their job. As Thea, Lohan delivers a charming performance as a young woman who fakes a pregnancy to avoid being fired — a lie that spirals hilariously as she begins to enjoy the perks. The film offers absurd and comedic situations while exploring workplace pressure, female empowerment, and self-discovery. A great pick for fans of romantic comedies with a satirical edge and a bold lead character."
