In life, timing is everything. That adage is no more apparent than in the phenomenon of superfecundation, which is the rare occurrence of twin babies conceived from two different biological fathers. Superfecundation is the reason that Jess is carrying twins, and the unfolding drama of "Double Mommy" is the justice that is sought for this young, victimized mother.
While Ryan, the boyfriend of Jess, was away, his friend and soccer teammate Brent Davick took advantage of the situation by drugging Jess at a party and raping her. After Ryan's return, Jess discovers that she is pregnant with twins by different fathers. But through the money of the wealthy Davick family, she is unable to prosecute Brent.
One by one, witnesses are bought off by the powerful patriarch Scott Davick, who is grooming Brent to take over the family business. Scott and his wife Candace cover for their son. Scott had previously bought off another young woman, Emily, when Brent had committed another felony act. When Candace discovers the drugs used by her son to incapacitate the women, she dumps them down into the garbage disposal.
It is only due to the courage and tenacity of Jess and Ryan that the truth about Brent Davick is slowly revealed to the community. The Davick clan seems to believe that because they have money and privilege and their son is an honors' student, he should not be prosecuted for his heinous offenses. But, at heart, Brent is a criminal. Jess and Ryan eventually find a way to expose ol' number 18 on the soccer field during a game.
The film's climax was a frantic race to stop an out-of-control Brent after he grabs his father's gun and makes a beeline for Jess. The filmmakers even added a denouement with gallows humor when Candace pays a visit to little grandson Charlie and expresses high hopes for his future, due to his genes. Once a Davick always a Davick!!!

Two Babies, Two Daddies
***1/2
A young woman is impregnated via two guys and the second one had her drugged before he forced himself on her.
This well done story is basically how the guy with his wealthy family thinks that he can buy himself out of this predicament, only to see that when he is discovered to be the culprit, none of his apparent wealth and family influence can help him. In fact, he goes beyond the misery he caused and murders to quiet those who would expose him.
Nice to see Bruce Boxleitner from the old days of television's "Scarecrow and Mrs. King," in this movie. Older of course, he reluctantly aids his no good son.
The first guy, Ryan, who impregnated her, was the true love of her life and is willing to raise the other child.
A good film depicting societal mores in such a situation.
Horrible movie but what do you expect from modern Lifetime?
Movie is bad, terrible actors and actress, terrible cinematography, What happened Lifetime? You use have such great movies, I think around 2007 or 2009 is when it started to decline. Watch Lifetime movies made in the 80s through 2005 any newer films are pure trash. Lifetime use to have so much drama and good actors now their just lazy.
