I think you should plan for it if you can.
You would prefer to be in a less stressful posting when you are pregnant not so stressed over exams etc.
There are also cases of classmates having miscarriages and other obstetric complications when they were pregnant. Was it due to being a stressful part of their careers? We would like to think not but who knows.
If you get pregnant congratulations but better to plan for it.
