Is it normal to be attracted to pregnancy?

I am a nineteen-year-old male, and several years ago I realised that I am attracted to pregnant women. I've tried at several points to try and get rid of this part of my personality, but to no avail - I can't seem to shake it. I'm not sure where this came from or when it began to develop, but thankfully it's not exclusive (I still find other women attractive). It still makes me very uncomfortable though, and I'm not exactly sure what I should do about it; if I should just accept it or try new methods to repress it.

Is this normal? And has anyone had any similar experiences? It's frustrating that I don't have anyone I can talk to about this. I don't know how I could ever break it to a partner.

    It has gotten to the point where I had to buy a 9 months practise pregnant belly suite which I had to give up in March 2013, since my one and only bf found it and took to a charity shop. However I never really said that I had brought it or why. I feel empty without it.

    I loved to still act very very fat and pregnant too wearing tight clothes (sometimes I wear an old swimming suite stuffed to the max) and a very tight belt. It does not feel the same anymore, and does not feel like I am carrying a baby.

    I had a similar experience over a year ago. I'm a lot older, so I was in a panic when I first got a touch of maiesiophilia. I figured you couldn't teach an old dog new tricks, and I still remembered well before then how hard it was for me to look at pregnant women.

    But like a lot of obsessions, I just force-fed it, and it never went away. I suppose it is normal enough with all you can find on the web about pregnancy depicted either artistically or erotically. (Forgive me for the inevitable bandwagon appeal.)

  • I think watching the movie Inside would be a good cure for you.

      Oh, ew.

      It's good to finally have this out in the open at least, being able to speak about it alone is a weight off my chest.
