All of the characters – except Jennifer Lopez’s, who is adopting – are shown in various stages of pregnancy. A quote from the character is also included, and ranges from the sweets (“I can’t wait to meet my baby.”) to the funny (“If I knew I’d have a rack like this, I would have gotten knocked up years ago.” and the desperate  (“I’m calling bull$#!%. Pregnancy sucks.”)

Many of these nuggets of wisdom are lines that were heard in the trailer for the film, which is helmed by Kirk Jones, and set for release on May 11.

The film, based on a screen adaptation of the bestselling book by Heidi Murkoff, follows a group of expectant parents whose lives are all somehow intertwined, no matter how different they all may seem. One of the most promising story lines is the baby-crazy author Wendy (Banks) who gets a taste of her own militant mommy advice when pregnancy hormones ravage her body.

The cast also includes Chace Crawford, Matthew Morrison, Dennis Quaid, Chris Rock, Rodrigo Santoro, Ben Falcone and Joe Manganiello.
