I am pregnant, can I claim my unborn child as a dependant?

If you are in the state of Georgia, and you were pregnant in 2022, then you can get a credit on your state tax return for an unborn child.   If you are anywhere else, no, you cannot claim your unborn child on a 2022 tax return.  You will be able to claim a child born in 2023 on your 2023 tax return next year.

Not this year for your child to be a dependent.  You will be able to claim your child on your 2023 tax return (filed in 2024).  The costs related to pregnancy and child birth can add up quickly. If you itemize deductions, the IRS allows you to deduct part of these costs.

@xmasbaby0 I read that it's the GA Form 500 Schedule 1, but how can I add this form on Turbo Tax?

Lots of  federal and/or state forms are not ready yet.   You have to e-file your federal return first, and then your state.  The state will not accept a return until the IRS has accepted your federal return. The IRS begins to accept returns on January 23.  If you are waiting for federal forms you will also have to wait to file your state.
