Every time I see a photo of a pregnant celebrity wearing heels, I'm always a bit shocked and baffled as to how they manage to walk around in those things without falling! And aside from feeling unsteady and wobbly -- how on earth do they get their swollen feet into them?

Kourtney Kardashian is known for her chic maternity style, and she certainly hasn't let a baby bump get in her way of looking trendy and fashionable. Check out her mile-high heels in this photo -- it's a wonder she managed to stay upright!

When I was pregnant with my son, I vowed to wear heels right up until his birth too -- because I was under the impression that I was going to be the "cute pregnant chick." Um -- things didn't quite work out the way I planned, and I wound up switching to flats in the middle of my second trimester. (My feet just couldn't take it anymore.)

I definitely wasn't the most stylish pregnant woman on the planet, but I was perfectly comfortable from that point on. And while the pregnant celebrities in the photos below look so polished and put together in their heels, I can't help but wonder if they secretly curse under their breath about how bad their tootsies ache.

Are you wearing heels during your pregnancy?
