I've actually noticed that quite a bit.

Do you guys think maybe seeing pregnant looking women triggers the instinct to protect them?

I'm no expert, but that certainly sounds plausible.

As others have pointed out, pregnancy does tend to accentuate a lot of traits that a lot of men find attractive.

Also, from an evolutionary point of view we would not have been so far if all people were disgusted by the look of a pregnant woman. It makes a lot of sense that some people are attracted by pregnancy. I am anyway ;) But I believe there are people attracted by any category you could think of. And that also makes sense to protect genetic diversity.
