I would like to argue that. My instructor's wife continued doing martial arts up until a week or two before the baby was due and another friend of mine who teaches aerobics was teaching her classes up until the day before the baby came.
What the doctors say is that you shouldn't increase the amount of physical activity you are doing (for example, probably not a good time to start in martial arts or take up any extreme sports), but continuing the activities you are in isn't supposed to hurt anything.
We can come up with other theories all day long as to why women don't stay with it, but as far as keeping women enrolled though - I'm at a loss. It is like trying to boost female enrollment. It is a hard thing to accomplish.
