You need to get help. This is not healthy.

You can't die. But you have a high chance of miscarriage.
A body can recognize when it is not prepared to have a baby.
You should really consider gaining weight before getting pregnant.. and if you already are, you should be eating more than the usual amount of calories.
Malnutrition to a fetus can lead to several problems including mental retardation, deformities, or severe unbalances such as bipolar-ness later on in life.

Ummmm...your profile questions say you are only 15! And you sure have a lot of questions about weight and appearance. I think you suffer from an eating disorder, and further more, need to seek some professional help. If you *really* are pregnant, then you are seriously putting your child in danger if you continue your current lifestyle. But truly, you should talk to someone you trust and get yourself help either way.

You may not even be able to get pregnant at that weight. Do you have regular cycles. I was that weight at 17 18 years of age and the same height and I never had regular cycles for over 2 years and my body was shutting down due to being under weight

Are you eating and taking care of yourself?? I have read, more than once (What to expect when your expecting), that your body adjusts its weight, according to what you need. If you are underweight it tries to make itself healthier.
My Mother is very small, always weighing around 100 pounds and she gained 60 pounds with me.
I would expect to gain quite a bit of weight, but I don't see why you shouldn't be OK.
Good Luck.

you will need to gain more than the average 20 pounds during your pregnancy. talk to your doctor for more information. but if you are not eating right, then yes, your baby could be affected.

Well, how far along are you? If you are quite far along, when other women usually start gaining weight, and you are still 85lbs. that could cause some trouble in the noutrition of your child. He/she may come out very tiny.

You won't die but you need to make sure that you eat lots and eat healthy so your baby can grow properly. You are underweight.

Only a fool would give medical advice on
the net without even seeing you, but you
are abnormally light for your height.
Consult a pediatrician on nutrition.

I dont think you would die, but make sure you get enough calories to keep the baby healthy.
