They are all fantastic, but here's my individual nitpicks.
#1 I'm guessing this is some sort of composite or a backdrop that's been blended to look real. In any case, it was believable until I saw the feet of what looks like another couch behind her. Look just under the woman's feet.
#2 A tad overprocessed for my liking, and i'm getting a hint of haloing around the woman.

#3 No nitpicks
#4 Absolutely amazing!
Thanks Ryan! Yes, your observations are readily evident. It's just that I gave up being a perfectionist long ago.....
I don't think it would ever have occurred to me to drop a pregnant woman underwater for a maternity shoot... so number 4 gets points straight away just for out of the box thinking alone, nevermind #4's visually pleasing artistic and technical execution.
Is the dress the same in the second and third shots, and you just changed the color? Where did you get that dress at?
Are 2 and 3 composites, too? If so, I think I don't like you.

Thanks Ron. Yes, the dress is the same, made by the mother of the baby's father. I did change the color to purple in that shot simply because I liked that color better. Plus it added to the variety.
And fortunately, you can still like me because those shots aren't composited. :-)
I like the last pic. Everything else has too much glow or photoshopped too much where it isn't pleasing. Not bad, I see this type of stuff on 500px a lot.
