No: It is not possible to grow taller in your thirties. However your posture and strength can improve and you can become thinner, all of which might make you feel taller.

Measure it!: It would be very unusual for someone past the age of 25 to have increased height Feeling that way doesn't count. You have to measure it

Standing straighter?: Some people get acupuncture for back pain. If you are getting treatment for back pain as well as pregnancy and are finding it helpful, you may have less back spasm. Less back spasm could lead to standing up straighter, therefore the appearance and feeling of being taller.
