    Embarazado in spanish has both meanings, being pregnant and being embarrassed.

    Edit: in any case, it is still odd to use it that way.

    “Estoy embarazada” 100% equals “im pregnant”… “estoy embarazado” would still be odd.

    To express embarrassment, we usually divert it not to us but to the origin of the embarrassment

    “Que situación embarazosa”
