In the US, the minor would have the right to make medical decisions regarding the pregnancy, and once the child is born they would have parental rights over the child. That is the extent of their rights. A 17-year-old, pregnant or not, is still a minor and therefore subject their own parents rules--in other words, being pregnant/giving birth does not emancipate a minor.

In Georgia if you are pregnant and you got a note from your doctor saying that you are pregnant and your seventeen can you move out legally?

Legally, if your done with school, and seventeen, you are allowed to move out, and have most of the rights as an legal adult. If you are not done with school, and you are pregnant, being pregnant gives you the right to drop out of school without parent conseption. Which means you would be allowed to leave. So that's that way. Or you could get emancipated. Which gives you the right of a legal adult. Good luck :)
