* ''Carnal Crimes of Cremorne'', a ribald Edwardian novel. Caroline's maid is terrified she might be pregnant after performing oral sex on a man. After a brief [[Author Filibuster]] on the need to provide decent sex education to the lower classes, Caroline informs the girl as to the truth of the matter. The girl is so grateful that she engages in [[Girl On Girl Is Hot|lesbian sex with her mistress]].

* ''[[Catch-22]]''. The doctor shows up with a black eye and explains it came from explaining something to a patient who demanded to know why his wife wasn't pregnant yet, claiming they'd been having sex every night. After some conversation he got the man to show him with a pair of dolls just what, exactly, they were doing every night. And had to explain as tactfully as possible why that might not be getting her pregnant.

* ''The Duke and I''. Daphne wants kids, but her new husband doesn't. He's pulling out before ejaculation, but as far as she knows (because her mother neglected to give her [[The Talk]]) they're trying to make a baby.

** Although earlier in the same sketch, when told test tube babies are conceived in a test tube, her reaction was "We'd never both fit in." [[Ping Pong Naivete]], but a fairly consistent level of stupidity.

* ''[[Achewood]]''. An early story arc involves Phillipe getting "married" to a flower after Lie Bot tricks him into thinking he made it pregnant by touching it (and everyone else apparently goes along with it [[For the Lulz]]).

* [[Questionable Content|Hannelore]] worries that she might be pregnant and suffering from morning sickness, despite being disgusted by the idea of sex. She's paranoid enough to believe that someone may have artificially inseminated her without her knowledge.
