Not on HN, though.

Why not?
Since I'm being downvoted for what I thought is a common sense answer, here is a more elaborated one:
1. HN is a mostly technical forum, with a technically inclined user base.
2. Statistics show that there are less women working in Tech than men [1,2]. This can be translated in interest in Tech.
3. Only a fraction of those women would be on HN, and only a fraction of them would be pregnant.
4. One more data point: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5520342
You can therefore safely assume that it's a very tiny number, which can not explain the NO responses of this poll.

Because last I checked, HN was not pregnant women's favorite forum.
You could create a poll if you doubt it, I trust my gut :)

As I think it is also a good discussion on Gender Identities.
