Then there would be Edith Ann, a 5½-year-old demon even the devil could not exorcise. Edith Ann's idea of playing with dolls is to put one under her dress-and tell everyone she's pregnant. "I don't usually get a cold," she confides. "I have leprosy...

After that, it is the Communists' turn. They are represented by a husband-wife team of rich dilettantes, whose aim is to turn the widow into a proletarian heroine.

...Roots seems to agree with this explanation. When Kunta Kinte plans to run away for a second time, despite his partially amputated foot and love for Bell, she tells him that her first husband was killed for running away and her children sold off, and that now she is pregnant again.
