In the US… Giving birth is not an emancipating event. The minor would have to petition the court for emancipation. Emancipation is rarely granted in any state, and the odds of it being granted are even less if there's a child, because then the minor not only has to prove that they can fully support themselves, but that they can support their child also (with no help from anyone, including the taxpayers). That's next to impossible for a 16-year-old to do. They have to be able to pay for rent, utilities, food, medical expenses, baby supplies, daycare, etc (and no moving in with someone else and depending on them to help pay the bills). And the court will want to see that they can continue their education while doing that. The chances of the minor being emancipated are probably about the same as the chances of them winning the lottery.

∙ 13y agoAny 16 year old with or without a child needs to go before a judge to become emancipated. The fact there is a baby makes it very important that there is an income and means to take care of the baby and provide for it. This is what a judge will ask about and determine if there is income and support for a 16 year old mother to be emancipated.

∙ 13y agoUh, probably not, but I'm sure that having a baby would apply as a perfect reason to get emancipated, in addition to being able to support yourself and all that.

Can a 15 year old get emancipated just because she is pregnant?
No. A 15 year old is still a minor, but now one with a child. Becoming pregnant does not make a minor emancipated. To become emancipated a minor child needs to go before a judge to have him/her determine if she can support herself and the baby. The judge will want to know the means of support and other living conditions. Being emancipated means that a person can support themselves, have a job, pay the rent, pay for babysitting, and do all things needed to live. I doubt that a judge will allow a 15 year old minor to become emancipated with a baby without the needed support.
