Why is it feminine?

Gravidanze is feminine because it derives from the Latin adjective "gravidus" (pregnant), which when nominalized with the feminine suffix "-anza" (from Latin "-antia") naturally produces a feminine noun following Italian gender conventions where abstract nouns ending in "-anza" are consistently feminine. The suffix "-anza" itself is inherently feminine in Italian, making any noun formed with it feminine regardless of its Latin root.
