Fear of pregnancy is called tocophobia, but the word is used to describe what women feel regarding becoming pregnant. Perhaps what you feel is called tocophobia by proxy, where you feel such fear regarding others. With families being smaller in current times, one is not exposed to pregnancy as often, especially among one's peers if young. Perhaps such unfamiliarity has to do with the fear.
The technical term is "sensibility". It is outrageous in today's society for a 14-16 year old to have a baby (that she has no way to take care of). So your reaction is one of righteous indignation that others do not agree with your sensibility.

You're reading This may sound strange...but here we go... is there a technical term for a fear of pregnant teenagers? Please don't judge me, but there was a 14 year old girl at my school who got pregnant, and even the sight of her freaked me out...is this common?
