But, I would be inclined to tell a pregnant woman it just wasn't her time.

It is hard enough to balance sorority membership with motherhood when a woman has her child AFTER she joins. Doing it while one completes the membership process is way too stressful, (in addition to school and/or work) to be a worthwhile endeavor. I would be inclined to encourage a woman to seek membership after she has adjusted to motherhood.
While being part of a sorority would mean that the woman would have an additional support system in place, it is more important for a future mother to minimize stress.
