ST. PETERSBURG, Florida (WTSP) -- A St. Petersburg mother is very worried; it's been a week since her pregnant teen daughter disappeared.

Leah Martin said her daughter, Morgan, walked out her home along the 2800 block of 17^th Avenue South wearing pajamas to talk to the father of her unborn child.

"She was excited about it being a girl. She wrote her name in the sidewalk. And she was excited and I just think he wasn't," said Martin.

Morgan, who is four months pregnant, has not been seen or heard from since. She left behind her purse and other belongings. Her mother fears the worst.

"She's a good kid. She doesn't deserve whatever is happening," said Martin.

Her sister said it's not like the teen at all to just disappear for days. "I'm just hoping that she's doing something stupid and just ran away. But I'm telling you, it's not like her not to answer her phone or call somebody," said Sierra Cahill.

Since Thursday, the family and police detectives have posted hundreds of fliers around the area. They're hoping someone knows something.

According to police, the teen may have left the area in a white vehicle. If anyone has any information on Morgan, call St. Petersburg police at 727-893-7780.

ST. PETERSBURG --
A pregnant Florida teenager has gone missing after informing the father of her unborn child that the baby was a girl.

A pregnant 17-year-old St. Petersburg girl vanished more than a week go and hasn't been seen since.

Morgan Martin's family said she got a phone call just after midnight July 25^th, went outside in a sweat suit and slippers, and went missing. Her mother, Leah Martin, said she and her family are very worried about the teen who is 4 months pregnant.

According to her mother, it was out of her daughter's character to have taken off and not told anyone. Knowing the circumstances of her disappearance, she was very blunt about what she thinks may have happened to her daughter: "I don't really think she's alive anymore," she said.

St. Petersburg Police have talked to Martin's friends, family and the father of her unborn baby, but they have not developed many leads to date. The family has put up fliers, as they try to spread the word, holding out faint hope Martin is still alive.

The missing teen is described as 5'2'', 175 pounds, with black hair and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing a white tank top, pink jacket with fur around the hood, gray sweat pants and the pink slippers. She went missing from her home in the 2800 block of 17^th Ave. S.

She took her cell phone when she walked out of the house, but no calls have been answered since. She did not take her purse nor any money. No sign of foul play has been found and the girl's disappearance is still considered a missing persons case.
