It was a sort of Sloaney slang, adding the "ggers" after the first vowel. Often preceded by, for some obscure reason, "Harry".
So, one might have heard in Kensington wine bar:
I noticed Letitia wasn't at Tarquin's party. In fact I haven't seen her around at all for a while.
Oh, Darling, I thought everybody knew - she's Harry Preggers, and not a notion of who's the Daddy.
