There are those celebs who are totally open with the public about their pregnancy (Anne Hathaway and Chrissy Teigen, we’re looking at you), and then there are those who keep it a very well-kept secret like Gilmore Girls' Alexis Bledel. And then, of course, people who are right in the middle, like Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
