Pregnant Aubrey Plaza asks Seth Meyers to play key role in baby's birth

Aubrey Plaza joked that Seth Meyers should help deliver her baby

Aubrey Plaza has asked Seth Meyers to deliver her first baby.

The pregnant 41-year-old star is expecting her first child with partner Christopher Abbott, and she joked that the talk show host might have a key role to play in the birth.

Appearing on Late Night With Seth Meyers this week, she quipped: "May need you to pull it out."

A confused Seth, 52, replied: "What's that? Do you want me to pull it out?"

She joked: "That's why I came here tonight."

When the presenter insisted he "would rather not do that", she insisted it was a choice between him or Henry Winkler.

She teased: "Those are my two top."

Seth pointed out that the Happy Days icon might be the best choice, and Aubrey acknowledged that he does have some experience after he delivered her baby as part of a storyline on Parks and Recreation.

Seth said: "I would choose Henry. Wouldn't you?"

She replied: "Well, he delivered my baby on Parks and Recreation, so that's all I know."

Seth teased that it's "very rare to get a dress rehearsal with someone".

Aubrey recently revealed she is looking forward to seeing what motherhood is "all about".

During an appearance on the SmartLess podcast, she said: "There’s a baby inside of me right now. Yes it’s true… I know it’s shocking isn’t it.

"Yes [this is baby number one]."

She went on to explain how she went to the doctor for an ultrasound scan before recording the podcast and she had to take her dog to the vet on the same day for a similar procedure.

She added: "Today was a big day I went to the doctors today, and my dog also went to the doctor. My dog is getting a scan right now and I got a scan earlier.

"She’s also getting a scan on her stomach … I think she’s ok. She had to get an ultrasound on her stomach and I got an ultrasound on my stomach and there is a baby in there…"

Asked if she's excited about becoming a mother, Aubrey replied: "I am [excited], I’ve always wanted to see what that’s all about you know. It seems so interesting that whole thing … "
