Not my favorite term but it doesn't make me cringe. When I hear "knocked up" I do think accidental, illegitimate child, though.

I prefer pregnant, expecting, or even "with child".

For humor, here are my contexts in which I think of each term:

"OH man. Just found out I'm knocked up! Don't know WTF I'm gonna do! OH NO!"

"Ah yes, husband and I are expecting. What a beautiful addition."

and my example for preggo was given above ^^
