Such a fun slideshow! In some of these cases I didn't even know the actress was pregnant! I love that 30Rock's producer said, "no child should have Jenna Maroney for a mother." - Hilarious! (... and true.)

Phylicia Rashad, who played Clair Huxtable on the 'Cosby Show' became pregnant and it was not written into the storyline for the show. The kitchen table and island was raised to cover her growing belly, along with using props and loose clothing. On a blooper reel of the Cosby Show, Bill Cosby jokes, "What are we gonna use next... a car in the kitchen to hide her belly?!" Funny!

If I remember correctly - For "I Love Lucy", CBS wouldn't allow the word "pregnant" to be used, so "expecting" was used instead. Don't know why, but it was a bad word back then... or something silly like that. - Remember, this was an era of black&white TV with shows where married couples NEVER "slept" in the same bed (if shown) but in single beds spaced far apart. - How times change...
