If I had a baby in 2016 but insurance covered most of the expenses, can I still deduct the total cost of having the baby?

First, congratulations! Unfortunately, you can only deduct that amount that you paid out of pocket.

No, you can not. You can deduct only that amount that you actually paid out of your pocket, and no more.
