“Instead of warning pregnant women not to drink,I think female alcoholics ought to be told not to fuck”

Definition
Maiesiophilia is a pregnancy fetish. It is a strong sexual attraction to pregnant women or women who appear pregnant. This can be a deep visual attraction as well as a desire to have sex with pregnant women.
Sexy Pregnancy in Culture
For a long time pregnant women were not looked at as sexy or sex symbols. It was expected for partners to view their pregnant partner as still attractive, but it was also considered understandable if a partner lost sexual attraction for their partner when they were pregnant. What a lot of people didn’t realize is that many people find pregnant women very sexy. Sometimes it is because seeing a pregnant woman would remind them of their partner when they were pregnant and of that time in their life which was likely caring, exciting, as well as full of hot sex since most pregnant women get incredibly horny during their second trimester.
Pregnant women being sexy started to be normalized when a pregnant Demi Moore appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine fully nude. It showed pregnancy as sexy and glamorous and something that should not be hidden. Since then many other celebrities have appeared pregnant and nude on magazine covers and personal naked pregnant photo shoots increased.
Safety
The biggest concern of sex during pregnancy is will it hurt the baby? The answer to that is no. Sex will not hurt the baby. There are medical exceptions where sex is not considered safe, in which case, your doctor will tell you. It has been shown that sex during pregnancy is emotionally good for both mom and baby.
