If your child is not yet born, you cannot claim him/her as a dependent.
Unreimbursed medical expenses for your wife can be claimed along with other unreimbursed medical expenses on your Schedule A. Note that the amount claimable is subject to a minimum threshold based on your AGI.

Hi.
Congratulations! This must be a very exciting time. Unfortunately, there is not a tax credit or deduction for the baby until after the baby is born. Any medical expenses you paid in 2013 for prenatal care is deductible on your itemized deductions if you use them however, it is limited by 10% of your Adjusted Gross Income and any insurance reimbursements. Be sure to include prescriptions like prenatal vitamins or iron!
Best wishes. Thank you for choosing Turbo Tax. Lorie

The IRS has not updated its definition of a dependent. Under IRS rules, in order to claim a newborn child as a dependent, state or local law must treat the child as having been born alive, and there must be proof of a live birth shown by an official document like a birth certificate.
