Should the movie have had another title?


I recently saw this movie for the first time, and I think one of the reasons it may not have done as well as it should have is the title. To me, the title "She's Having A Baby" didn't really reflect what the story was about. Anyone have thoughts on the title?

The entire movie centers around Jake's novel, parts of which he is reading out loud (i.e., the narration). At the very end, the camera pans to the finished book, and the title of it is "She's Having a Baby." So there you go.

It was centered around the title of his book. But at the same time it's called SHE'S HAVING A BABY because he felt disconnected. She was the one that wanted the baby and forced him to go along with it.

Aww, I haven't seen the film but that's sad how the husband doesn't want kids but the wife does. Why are they even married if they have different plans in life?

watch the film then.
