Hi! I think it is unlikely you will get into trouble. Your girlfriend potentially could. I don't think you are under any obligation to tell the doctor your age.

Talk to a lawyer. He can tell you what risk there is from your local laws.

Let us know what happens!

I'm glad she is going to the doctor. She might not be pregnant and just late because of stress. A woman can be late because of stress or weight gain or loss. I agree with Pat, talk to a lawyer. There are local laws and state laws that govern at what age a person is considered an adult. A lot of lawyers will talk to potential clients free for the first visit, if money is a factor in not finding out what your rights are.

I also must congraduate you for being honest with your mother. She sounds like a great support system. Maybe she would know state laws and can help with the legal factors involved.

Let us know how the dr appt goes.
