Answer
You could try Cat Attract. Its a special cat litter sold at Petsmart that is supposed to lure cats back to using their litterpan..
Make sure the pan is thoroughly cleaned with dish soap and water once a week with fresh litter added.  Also the pan needs to be scooped atleast once a day.
You shouldn't go near the litterpan since you are pregnant, of course..so you will have to have another family member do the duty
Also use a litterpan w/o a hood and put it in a location with some privacy and quiet area (not near the washer or high traffic areas for example)
