With marriage if the spouse is understanding of the commitments required, it shouldn't be a problem for a member to remail active. As for pregnancy, accidents happen, I just feel a sister who gets pregnant shouldn't be forced to go alum. She should be given the choice on whether or not to go alum. I'm sorry if I'm not making any sense.

I wasn't clear -
Our policies USED to force women who married to go alum; no longer! We now allow married women to remain as Delta members. EO has not come out and stated a position on pregnancy. Yes, the choice should be hers! While I don't think we should force a Delta member into alum status b/c she's pregnant, I seriously doubt that any new mother can/will live up to Delta-obligations when she has an infant child to care for!
