Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ok now like I said I really need some advice and stuff with this, but my girlfriend is two months pregnant with my baby. She doesn't want to tell her parents or family that she is and she doesn't want me to tell any of my family just quite yet. I have no idea what's going on and I really want to know what she's going through so I can help her. A big thing that I'm concerned about is that she's eating less lately and also becoming a bit more depressed, is that normal for a pregnant teen? I don't have anybody to really ask since most of my friend's girlfriend's haven't been pregnant and the one's who have either got an abortion or the misscarried. So please can someone help me out?

You cannot really force her to tell her parents or yours. But, it something you should really sit down and talk to her about. Let her know that you will be behind her 100% of the way, be there for her, show her that she can trust that you will help her talk to your parents and her parents. Also, please let her know that she should be getting pre-natal care, in order for her to stay healthy during the pregnancy.

She needs to do it now because she NEEDS to be seeing a doctor ASAP. It's irrelevant if your families are against the relationship, this is a consequence of it and it's time to face it. It's not fair to the baby or her health to not be seeing a doctor, especially if you're concerned about her health.

The first trimester is VERY important when it comes to health, regardless of whether she plans to abort, keep, or go the adoption route. There are vitamins that are vital to her and the baby's development. If she is not eating, that's another hammer on the nail to get to a doctor ASAP.

It is not uncommon in the first trimester to have morning sickness, but you have mentioned eating disorders? I'm stressing again, please get her to go to a doctor.
