Synopsis

Allison Scott (Heigl) is an up-and-coming entertainment journalist whose 24-year-old life is on the fast track.

Should they raise the baby together? What makes a happy lifetime partnership after all? A couple of drinks and one wild night later, they’ve got nine confusing months to figure it out…
