I can understand a petticoat crew, maybe on a boomer. But what happens on a long term cruise when some rating gets pregnant.

Especially if you’re on a boomer and you can’t just come in off a classified cruise.

Jeebus.

Best,

Even a boomer doing 3 knots to nowhere will have to break off patrol and bring a pregnant female back to port. Submarines simply aren't equipped to deal with pregnancy and the potential complications thereof. Same reason submariners aren't allowed to go to sea with their wisdom teeth. Not to mention the fact that, IIRC, it is illegal to expose a fetus to occupational radiation.

Sue the Navy and call for more regulations and grant $$$ to liberal professors to study the system.

Obviously, we’ll just have to add a daycare section to the sub then, won’t we?
