Storyline

As neither of the four friends has a solid prospect of engagement, they hate feeling obliged to attend a formerly bizarre socialite's baby shower - when it turns out she even 'stole' Charlotte's years ago made-up unique baby-name Shayla, they march out 'scandalized'. The worrying worsens as Carrie's period is really late, and she doesn't even know yet how she would feel about a pregnancy. Written by KGF Vissers

The one that Carrie thinks that is pregnant
8 April 2006 | by (Brazil) – See all my reviews

Laney Berlin, an old fellow that Carrie,Charlotte,Miranda and Samantha know from old times,is going to do a Baby Shower to celebrate her baby that is coming very soon. The four friends go to the shower without many enthusiasm,and they see a very different Laney from the past: a woman really interested in family and kids, the very opposite of the old Laney who always was showing her boobs to everybody in a party and having sex with a new rock star from time to time. While Charlotte sees the life she wants to have, Carrie starts to imagine if she wants that for herself,specially when she sees that her period is 4 days late.

aka "Chá de Bebê" - Brazil
