Calhunter - Based on what you say, maybe Coonhuntingal passed on the info to X-Mountie without my knowledge. She was the only one who knew and I assumed X-Mountie could read the PMs. I was glad that he know. I was really happy to have gotten pregnant so quickly.

I completely understand your concern for the issue in general and happen to agree with it. I don't think Mods should be able to read somebody's PMs without their knowing about it. Yes, they're can be a valid legal reason for admin to be able to read somebody's PMs (such as a member is planning some crime, posting threats, etc.) but that is something that is properly left at Admin level.
As a Mod, our job is to help the website run smoothly by dealing with rules violations, answering member questions to the best of our ability, helping members as much as we can with their website issues and promoting a general all-around atmosphere in which members want to participate and can enjoy it.
In some ways, we're kind of like that first line supervisor at work who makes little decisions but still has to kick the big decisions up to management (Admin) since they run the place. In other ways, we're still just members who enjoy posting and the camaraderie and occasionally have to put on a Mod hat and have a few more buttons or links to use.
In the chat rooms, I know Mods were allowed to log in with an invisible mode in general discussion so members didn't know we were logged in. I don't know if we were allowed to see private chats or not. Based on what you've said, it sounds like that is possible or possibly your friend simply shared good news with another chat regular that she knew was your friend also. Hopefully this helps solve at least some of the mystery for you.
