She wants you to stay in the lobby so stay in the lobby and do not pressure her about what private questions she asked the Doctor. Whatever questions she has are between her and her physician and should remain that way until she chooses to tell you.
They are not married and some women do not want their boyfriends or any other male in the room during the physical exam for pregnancy and there are plenty of Married women who do not allow their husband's in the room when have a pap smear.
FYI: One cannot tell who the father of the fetus is just from a physical exam and most doctor's do not do abortions in their regular office since it is an actual surgical procedure.

Well to each his own, but this is disrespectful in my eyes, especially if she plans to spend the rest of her life with him. If it was just a gyno exam, whatever; but for official life changing news such as a baby, NOPE. He has every right to be in that room.

^^ This.
My ex always took me to the ob/gyn exams, but he waited in the lobby. I have a lot of questions to ask my doctor, it is kind of embarrassing to share these with a boyfriend.
I think op shouldn't take this so personally. It perhaps has nothing to do with him.
Not sure what "private questions" she has for the doctor. Is she shy or reserved? You can't force her to allow you in the room for the results. You certainly can't be in the room for gyno visits/tests. I've never had a doctor allow anyone in the examining room with me. If she doesn't want anyone there, then respect her wishes.

I shouldn't take it personally, but I want to be there. I want us both to be in the same room when we hear an official pregnancy result. I just feel so left out. I am not scared she will try to terminate, but at the least,allow me to be in the same room when the doc gives us the news. I will leave when the test results are given. That is all I want.

I was with my ex for over a decade, and during that time, I was present for nearly every gyno visit. Wasn't my decision, but my ex's. I don't know what type of "private questions " she wants to ask.
