OMG...it's buggin' the heck out of me! Can't think of the name of an old movie nor the names of the guy and gal who starred in it! I think it was made in the 50's...it was about an older couple who found out they were pregnant...they had a grown daughter who was pregnant at the same time...it was a comedy. Can anyone help me remember this so I don't go totally bananas?! P.S. It wasn't "Father of the Bride II"...it was sooo much earlier than that!

Sounds like the one with Jackie Gleason as the dad and Elizabeth Taylor as the daughter. I think it was called Papa's Little Dividend. Steve Martin and Dianne Keaton did the remake of it..Father of the Bride and FoB2.

It is called 'Father's Little Dividend' with Elizabeth Taylor and Spencer Tracy. It is the sequel to 'Father of the Bride'. The remakes are with Diane Keaton and Steve Martin and Martin Short, called Father of the Bride 1 and 2.

Oh Man! That isn't it! But thank you for trying! This movie that I'm thinking about has a tallish, brunette lady and the man is sort of over-weight, not much hair with a "jowly" face...

Wow...I'm stumped. I love old movies. The older the better, and I thought I could jump in here and presto! give you the answer but I don't know either.
I'll be watching cause it's going to drive me crazy now too :?

In Father of the Bride part 2 Myrna Loy played the wife of Spencer Tracy and she was pregnant along with Liz Taylor. I know most of the old movies and that one is the only one where the mother and daughter were prego and the same time. Have to keep thinking on that one.
