My friend asked me to cast a horary chart for her. She just missed her period and took 3 positive pregnancy tests. This would be her first child and she's hoping the stars have some insight.

I know she's mars, almost exactly conjunct MC. The baby is Jupiter in Sag in the 2nd house, retrograde. Looks like the moon will translate the light from Jupiter to Mars, right? Is this indicating that it would turn out well if she went through with it?
Any help at all, any insight would be greatly appreciated. Obviously this is a time sensitive matter so quick responses would be helpful. Thank you again!
This is obviously a very delicate topic, we are talking here not just about your friend but also about a new soul whose destiny has to be decided, and only she can make the final decision. Not easy. You don't mention how old she is, which also couldhave a bearing on her choice.
I recalculated the chart on astro.com, your wasn't very legible, and in fact some elements have changed with respect to the chart you posted.
Waybread made some very valid points, but with reference to the new chart she may or may not want to modify some comments.
Your friend is sexy scorpio in exactly the same degree as Jupiter, ruler of the 5th of children and the pregnancy. It is also trine north node, so she was subconsciously hoping to solidify the relationship with this pregnancy. The 5th is Jupiter as well as Neptune, who is trine the ascendent, so she feels good about it, although Neptune is nearby Nessus of suffering in the 4th, so this is going to effect her home life and family as well, creating a burden. Ruler of the 4th of home and family is saturn of duty and responsibility, sitting on south moon's node on the cusp of gossipy 3rd, so they will suffer once the news is made public.
Co-significator of the 5th is mars again, tying her in very tightly with the pregnancy, as well as mars ruling the 6th of health issues.
Mars is in the egotistical sign of Leo, separating from the trine with Jupiter, so she was really having a good time and not taking things seriously. Her partner is Venus who is at the last degree of family-oriented cancer, so exiting the scene shortly.
Moon in gemini approaches an opposition to Jupiter retrograde, where her sense of self esteem is in the balance. It also points to a financial burden, she might be counting on her partner to bear the brunt of this, but it's a groundless hope.
Chiron is in the 5th, bringing wisdom and knowledge with it. Sun in the 9th trines Chiron so her reputation would not be damaged by going to term.
The 9th from the 5th house would be the child's death house, and this is actually the ascendent, your friend, and Ceres is there, caring and nourishing in motherhood.
Given the number of ties between your friend and the pregnancy it seems difficult for her to terminate it, she is too involved with it.
However she would have to go it alone without counting on her partner, although her family might give her support in spite of the burden it creates for them.
As Waybread wrote, there are lots of alternatives, including adoption.
We don't know her age, whether she works and lives on her own, or lives with her family or is still attending school, and all these are also factors to consider.
