One could also use the word "became" instead of "ended up."

" The last time we met I became pregnant"

"end up" = finish

e.g. I started the race in front but I ended up last.

When I lost my job, I ended up in debt.

I went regularly to language classes, but ended up learning very little.

The correct sentence is:

"The last time we met I ended up pregnant".

It just means that last time they met, they had sex and she became pregnant as a result of the meeting.
