* ''Series/AmericanHorrorStoryDoubleFeature'': The aliens in this setting have only one goal coming to Earth: creating the perfect human-alien hybrid that will allow their DyingRace to adapt to Earth's environment. To do so, they need to regularly abduct humans to make them fall pregnant (and the biological sex of the host [[MisterSeahorse does not matter]]). The pregnancy is very much like a human one (morning sicknesses, strange food cravings, painful chest), however it is [[ExpressDelivery abnormally fast]] (the protagonists of the modern days section looking several months pregnant after a few days or weeks). While the female hosts can deliver the baby through the natural process of birth, male hosts need to have the baby [[GuttedLikeAFish surgically removed]]. And not only is the birthing delivery quite painful, it is also very dangerous for the life of the host. Let's say there's a reason why the aliens need at least five hundred test-subjects PER YEAR.

* A Future Shock in ''ComicBook/TwoThousandAD'' had a drunk guy narrating his woes to a barkeeper. Apparently a super-space-uber-wasp turned up at his office one day to tell him that he'd been selected as 'brood parent' for the wasp's eggs. The wasp also explains that the eggs are implanted through(!) the skull, and the larvae would eat their way out later, and would he mind holding still for a few seconds. The guy objects, and runs for it; uber-wasp chases. 30 or so panels of chase through an office block later, the wasp catches him after he jumps off the roof. End of flashback. The reason that he's in the bar is that he's trying to kill the eggs with elevated blood-alcohol before they hatch...
** At least it was polite...
*** That part was probably drunken embellishment. The rest of it must have been true.

* ''Comicbook/XMen'' has an evil alien race called the Brood that fits this trope. They are basically very large insectoids whose queens lay their eggs in sentient beings. The Brood embryos not only transform their victims into Brood, but they also absorb their host's abilities. Thus, if a host has super-powers, that Brood will have them. The X-Men only avoided this fate by freeing the Acanti, a race of {{Space Whale}}s enslaved by the Brood, whose shaman magically killed the embryos growing inside them in gratitude. It was too late to save Professor Xavier, but that's when having an alien girlfriend who owns a cloning tank comes in handy, as well as having enough psychic powers to transfer your mind into the clone.

* ''Series/TheOuterLimits1995'': In "The Surrogate", Claire Linkwood agrees to be a surrogate mother for Craig and Donna Ellach in exchange for $30,000. She is implanted with an embryo by Dr. Deanston, who runs a clinic. A week or so later, she begins to have strange, vivid nightmares about herself and the fetus in distress. She shares them with the clinic's surrogacy support group and finds that several of the other women have had similar experiences. Seven months later, Fern, another member of the support group whom Claire has befriended, loses her baby. Shortly afterwards, Claire is approached by FBI Special Agent Glen Grant who tells her that every baby born through the Deanston Clinic's surrogacy program has disappeared without a trace. Claire is unconvinced by Grant's conspiracy theories but agrees to her ex-boyfriend Ben's request that she be examined by Dr. Chan, an old high school friend of his brother's. Dr. Chan runs an amniocentesis on Claire which reveals the presence of a strange green fluid in her womb. Claire then learns that Ben had been approached by Grant and that he didn't know Dr. Chan beforehand. Refusing to have anything more to do with Ben, Claire goes to stay with the Ellachs. When she goes into labour, they bring her to the Deanston Clinic against her will and she realizes that the two of them are part of the conspiracy. Having being tipped off by Emily Bushmill, another surrogate mother, Grant rushes to the Deanston Clinic but he is too late as Claire has already given birth. The alien controlling Claire's body explains that its species does not give birth to live young but instead uses host bodies to gestate. When gestation is complete, they devour the host from the inside out, leaving only the shell as it aids in the deception. Grant is then eaten by the aliens in control of Claire and Fern.

At the end of the episode, a baby squid [[ChestBurster bursts]] out from inside her shirt. The series being what it is though, she and the baby squid take this in passing, and even become friends.

[[StrawmanPolitical Strawman conservative]] father Stan takes him to Mexico - "God's blind spot", he calls it - to have it aborted. Steve keeps it, but it's transferred to his girlfriend via kissing. The girlfriend, having been raised by Stan's even more conservative rival, [[MissConception thought that was how pregnancy happened]] anyway, so she never caught on.

* According to another wiki devoted to the ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'' games, the Khezu reproduces this way, by paralyzing another creature and injecting its young whelps into the unfortunate victim. The whelps live off their host until it dies, or they grow strong enough to leave. You can find Khezu whelps and deliver them for money, but while you have a whelp in your inventory it will constantly bite you, slowly draining your health till you get rid of it.

According to another wiki devoted to the ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'' games, the Khezu reproduces this way, by leaping out of a crevice in the wall, paralyzing another the creature it takes by surprise, and injecting then injects its young whelps into the unfortunate victim. The whelps live off their host until it dies, or they grow strong enough to leave. You can find Khezu whelps and deliver them for money, but while you have a whelp in your inventory it will constantly bite you, slowly draining your health till you get rid of it. Its cousin, the Gigginox, doesn't use this tactic...perhaps because it just makes ''[[ExplosiveBreeder so damn many]]'' whelps. [[WeaponizedOffspring That it can send at predators.]]
** The Jyuratodus reproduces like this too, though it's thankfully not as [[BodyHorror horrific.]] That isn't saying much, however. It spawns in the wet season of the Wildspire Waste, its eggs hatch soon after, and the young sneak into an orifice of large monsters passing by, latching their sharp gills to the monster's innards and feeding on them a la candiru.

* ''Bloodchild'', a short story by Creator/OctaviaButler: Human hosts (almost always male) act as incubators for eggs of the female aliens, who look something like human-size centipedes. If the host is lucky, the mother gets to him in time to extract the newly hatched larvae before they eat their way out. This relationship is presented as approaching symbiotic; the aliens (mostly) cherish the human families from whom they select their hosts, but the hosts don't get a lot of choice in the matter.

* Creator/IsaacAsimov's "Literature/GreenPatches": The lifeforms of Saybrook's Planet are able to telepathically induce pregnancy in any lifeform capable of reproduction (including asexual and females of sexually dimorphic species). This ability also ensures a hybrid organism will gestate that possess the same [[BizarreAlienSenses green patches]] that allows Saybrook lifeforms to use {{Telepathy}}. (These patches are how Captain Saybrook identified the AssimilationPlot in the first place.)

* Creator/AnneMcCaffrey wrote a short story called "Horse From A Different Sea" for her collection ''Get Off the Unicorn''. The gist of the story is a small town doctor notices that a large number of his male patients are having odd symptoms like nausea, weight gain and unusual cravings. The men have nothing in common but visiting a "house of ill-repute". After running every test he could think of the doctor finds out the men are pregnant and that the "ladies" have vanished along with the house they were in. It was done with very little horror.....given the subject matter....
