In the late '50s & at least into the middle '60s, when I was in grad 
school in Durham NC & married to a grad student, women teachers were 
required to resign when they began to show and needed to wear maternity 
clothes.  My financially struggling teacher friends therefore continued 
teaching as long as possible - looking like bag ladies in ill-fitting 
non-maternity clothing.
