The protagonist of "The Pregnancy Scheme" is Jules (or Julia) Simmons, who has just lost her job and has broken up with her boyfriend Drew. She has no other job prospects. She has no medical insurance. She owns a large home that she wants to keep. And now, she learns that she is pregnant! Jules links up with Alana Powell, who goes by the alias of Alana Temper. She meets Alana, who is an acquaintance of her bestie, Cecelia (Ce) Balzarini. It turns out that Alana has a money-making scheme to profit off the pregnancy of Jules. Her sales pitch is that she and Jules will become completely self-sufficient women, or "boss babes." The weakest part of the film was the pregnancy scheme itself in which Jules will complete a batch of fertility test strips, and Alana will sell the positive results to desperate women who hope to coerce men into marrying them or to extort money from the married men with whom they have been sleeping. It was such a tawdry and preposterous idea that it was impossible to believe that the boss babes could reap as much as $13,000 for a single test strip! Of course, the women never thought about the consequences of their actions and how the lives of numerous men would be adversely affected by their scheme. One of the poor slobs even retaliates by stalking Jules. In a subplot, the character of Bridget, an alias for Maureen, is an investigative reporter who is researching Alana and dons a fake baby belly to attend a pregnancy class where she can link up with Jules. The film was held together by an excellent cast which convincingly offered compelling performances. The actor playing Jules's boyfriend, Deadbeat Drew, was exceptional in his interpretation of a failed graphic novel author, who has immediately started a new relationship with Kristen, prior to pivoting to make a firm commitment to Jules to keep up his end as a dutiful dad. Fortunately, the film was murder-free, with only the hospitalization of Cy and a battered victim of the pregnancy scheme who came back in search of revenge on the boss babes.

Not saying this movie was horrible,but could of been better. Honestly.. At one point felt her friend or boyfriend,might of been involved. When Julia met Bridget felt she wasn't honest from the start,had me thinking she was involved with Alana in some way.. But after Julia told her all that was going on,felt maybe she was an undercover cop until it was revealed otherwise. Who thought making Julia look like a person who ate too much,instead of actually pregnant or dressed accordingly looked realistic? The clinic and how they conducted stuff was also,like that would happen in reality? Probably not. Casting to acting was typical,for a Lifetime production. The script felt weak,clichés & so forth. Worth a watch if you like the actors,pregnant related themes or nothing else is on tv.
