Why would she get discharged? You either are or you are NOT pregnant, figure it out and tell them asap.

if she is single, then the option is there, and if she got pregnant while in AIT it could be construed as being against orders.

she needs to determine, once and for all, no guesswork. Once she has the answer one way or another,she needs to make a decision. and yes, it is very possible they WILL discharge her especially if she cannot produce a family Care Plan.

If she is pregnant, she will receive a mandatory counseling. Basically giving her the option of staying in or getting out.

If she opts to stay in, she will have to get a parenting plan together. Also, she needs to go the doctor and get confirmation. This will stop her having to take a record APFT. If she fails a record APFT before the profile, a flag will remain against her for the entire term of her pregnancy. It will also code as non deployable for the duration of the pregnancy.

First step is to have a test run to make sure she is pregnant. It is common to miss or skip periods if you are doing strenuous physical activity. Stress can affect it as well.

Go take a test and then worry about it if it is positive.

We have universities, where men go to become great thinkers. They have no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven't got: a diploma.

Confirm before deciding action. ALwyas best not to worry until it is confirmed.

(side note: If she chooses to get out it is a volluntary discharge and she will have to pay back any bonuses recieved over three years. also, no MGIB because it is non-medical less than 3 years)
