I would say the first one definitely looks pregnant, the second is a good possibility but it's tough to tell. The way livebearers breed, it's almost safe to assume they're ALWAYS pregnant!

If the second one isn't pregnant yet, she will be. You'll be LOADED with fry! Be sure to have the right kind of hiding places for them in the tank, or be prepared to seperate the fry.
