Depending on the crime, you could be facing some heavy jail time. Talk with a lawyer about your situation. See if there is some way to get a reduced sentence.

How long do you have to press charges for being assaulted while you are pregnant?

I would suggest doing it immediately. But it really depends on the state. Generally you first file a police report and then you have a year to press charges. Since you are pregnant, the police MAY do it for you, but you usually have to do it yourself.

What would happen if a 15 year old girl got pregnant by a 20 year old in California no one is pressing charges?

Who is 'no one'? The only 'one' who can press charges is the state, because it's a crime against the state. If it gets reported (and it likely will be, because some people such as doctors and teachers are required by law to report it), then he will be charged--it's a very easy case to prove. And the state does not need her parents approval or cooperation to charge him. In fact, if her parents refuse to cooperate, they could possibly be facing charges too. He needs to go see an attorney, and then he needs to stay away from little girls.
