I feel sorry for you baby. I am very sorry that you are about to become a mother at such a tender age. You have to get out of there. I'm sure it is hard, but I suggest you look into section 8 housing (government welfare housing). Welfare to keep you and your baby above water while you get on your feet.
Get the paperwork going on the housing, check at the local WIC to see if they can point you in the right direction. Once you are out, remember to continue to improve yourself. Good things will happen to you and your child if you continue to improve yourself. You have a long tough challenge ahead of you, but you can do it!!!! Don't look back. Look forward. Let us know how you are doing.

 Your mother has emotional issues of her own to deal with and you shouldn't take anything she says to heart (even though it's hard not to.) Since you are in the U.S there are a lot of states that offer low income housing to single mothers (you're not married to the father?) and the rent is 0.00 if you don't have a job, some even pay you to go to school (G.E.D and college) most offer childcare or at least help with childcare costs.
Consider moving out of your mother's house and see how she does on her own with only her dog to help her out around the house. Your mother sounds depressed (probably with her weight) and unable to do anything about it. Get out of her house and start your own life, you don't want to raise a child around someone that hateful toward her own child, trust me on this.
I wish you the best of luck. And you can do it. You can go to school, you can have your baby and you can succeed at life if you want it bad enough. Prove your mother wrong.

You're officially an adult now, if the age you put up is correct. So what I would do is move out and never look back. Where's the father of the child? Could you move out to be with him? If you can share the costs and the care for the baby, you should be able to earn enough money to make a living for yourself.
One piece of advice though: don't move out unless you're ready not to come back.
