Black Market Babies is a 1945 American film directed by William Beaudine.
A small-time hood teams up with an alcoholic obstetrician to set up a private maternity ward, where the expectant mothers' expenses are paid by the "donations" of "adoptive" parents. The racket goes wrong when one of the pre-sold children is stillborn, which means the hood has to come up with a replacement baby.
