Amy is introduced in the first episode of Season 1, "Falling in Love", coming home from band camp and going to the bathroom. She takes a pregnancy test out of her french horn case and it comes up as positive; this is when she knows for sure that she is pregnant with Ricky's baby. The next day at school, she tells her best friends, Madison and Lauren that she had sex for the first time. They don't understand why she is telling them now, but they soon figure out that she is expecting. Amy, being so naive, doesn't think that this will affect anyone but herself.

Later, Amy takes multiple pregnancy tests at school. The tests says positive again. Madison suggests that maybe she isn't pregnant and that something is in her system that is making it say positive. Amy considers this and goes to her doctor's office after school. Her doctor determines that Amy is carrying a child, but doesn't say anything to Anne just yet.

At school Amy met Ben a freshman who wants a girlfriend , Ben and Amy official start dating even when he finds out her pregnancy and then wants to marry her and claim that the baby is his even though Ricky knows it's his baby.

Over this time Amy wants to get an abortion and calls Adrian to take her to the free clinic , but doesn't go through with the abortion. She then finds out that when her mom Anne was 18 she had Amy.

Amy tries to attend a school for young mothers, but decides against it .Also Ben gets beat up by a guy who wanted Ben to admit that Amy was going to a "slut school."

She finds out that she is having a boy in episode 15, That's Enough of That, and makes him a video so he'll know that they are putting him up for adoption because they love him and want the best life for him. Amy is going to give the baby to a gay couple, Leon and Donovan, who work with George in the furniture store, but Ricky, who is now falling for Amy, doesn't want the baby adopted.

Amy decides, in episode 20, Maybe Baby, that she wants to keep her son after she is offered a job in a daycare center that provides health insurance.
