Amy, der spilles af Shailene Woodley, bliver gravid efter et engangsknald på en bandlejr før hendes første år på high school. I begyndelsen af serien er hun 15 år gammel. Da Amy begynder på high school, indleder hun et forhold til Ben Boykewich (også 15 år), en støttende klassekammerat, som hun forelsker sig i. Hun tilstår sin graviditet over for sine to bedste veninder, Madison og Lauren, som er falske, fordi de spredte rygtet om, at Amy havde sex med Ricky. I løbet af denne tid opdager Amys 13-årige søster Ashley hendes graviditet på grund af Amys nylige vægtøgning og uregelmæssige opførsel, men lover at holde hendes hemmelighed for deres forældre. Ben frier til Amy efter at have fundet ud af det, fordi han virkelig elsker hende og føler, at han ville være en bedre far end Ricky på grund af hans families økonomiske stabilitet.

Amy planlægger at bo hos sin bedstemor Mimsy, men kan ikke tage af sted, da hun opdager, at Mimsy lider af Alzheimers sygdom og flytter ind på et plejehjem. Amy vender tilbage til skolen, men er utilpas ved at være kendt som "den gravide pige".

Upon entering high school, Amy begins a relationship with Ben Boykewich (also 15), a supportive classmate with whom she falls in love. She confesses her pregnancy to her two best friends, Madison and Lauren, who are fake because they spread the rumor that Amy had sex with Ricky. During this time, Amy's 13-year-old sister Ashley discovers her pregnancy due to Amy's recent weight gain and erratic behavior, but promises to keep her secret from their parents. Ben proposes to Amy after finding out, because he genuinely loves her, and feels he would be a better father than Ricky due to his family's financial stability.
