Beautiful Mother to be. I think if the sunlight had crossed her face and hair it might have improved this nice image even more. Still nice tho.

This sets a lovely mood. I think it may be a little cool though. I'd like to see it in warmer tones.

A touch more light on her face to set her apart from the wood might have helped.

ahhh open shade portraiture... it can be tricky! You did a fairly well job here. If I may offer a suggestion, instead of the portrait perspective, turn the camera to landscape, and reveal her legs as well. The way this is cropped, I feel like her legs end at the knees, which isnt very appealing.

Perhaps a half stop underexposed, easily fixed in post processing. She looks uncomfortable here also, I dont know if its her pose, or she just feels awkward.

very nice, a 7. would be soooo much better without that highlight right next to her face! I covered it with my finger and re-looked at image... try yourself to see if you agree...
