In HBO's upcoming limited series The Baby, motherhood is a horror show.

Natasha (Michelle De Swarte) is annoyed that all her closest friends are having babies. When a baby comes to her in the most unexpected way, her life takes a terrifying new turn. Natasha does her best to get rid of her surprise killer baby, but it clearly doesn't want to leave her just yet.

Beyond the maternal terror in this teaser, there's also a hint of comedy in the mix. We're pregnant with anticipation.

The Baby premieres on HBO on Apr. 24 at 10:30 p.m. ET and will be available to stream on HBO Max.
