A baby trap is when one member of a relationship misleads the other and causes a pregnancy, without the misled partner's consent. Usually, the goal of a baby trap is to keep the misled partner from leaving or ending a relationship, because they're now responsible for a child.
Men and women can both spring baby traps, by lying about measures they took (or said they'd take) to prevent pregnancy. In both cases, a baby trap is a terrible, possibly traumatic idea, and likely won't solve anything.
