    Does this mean that a particular pregnancy is not going well or that pregnancy in general is something bad?

        Maybe it means that someone doesn't like pregnancy?

            That's cause you spelled it wrong.

              For animals we do not use "schwanger" btw, but "trächtig" or "tragend". And for "pregnancy" it would be "Schwangerschaft" for humans and "Trächtigkeit" for animals. And i am not sure but i think that i heard for the word "Tragzeit" as well...
