Rather than ‘pregnant people’ or ‘pregnant person,’ use ‘pregnant women’ or ‘pregnant mom.'
And if she's a child? And is she a mom while still pregnant?

I would say so, yeah. "The mother of the fetus" sounds fine. "Mother's womb." It's not like men aren't the father until it's born.
Excepting the questionable case of surrogacy, the term "pregnant mom" feels wrong to me because it's redundant.
The host of the fetus would be more appropriate as they aren't a mother until birth.

I don't even like kids, but what a gross thing to be called. Unless it's a bouncing baby cordyceps, I'm going to stick with expectant mother.
Logically, you are absolving men of fatherhood for a year? Or what are we calling them? Donor?
A fetus is not a kid.
Better not say "primigravida", they'd completely lose it.
