    Your child will be covered under his insurance because it is his dependant.  You would not be. 

    If you want to get married before having the baby for you to be covered during your pregnancy and delivery, fine.  But please just make that your wedding day.  You can plan a great day or night in a short time.  If you choose to do a small wedding and a big day later, please do not lie to your guests or keep it a a secret that you're married, and you can plan your "big day" as a vow renewal.  I always vote for only one day though.

    Haha thanks.  It's only because I work from home and am on my computer all the time so I'm usually always the first to respond.  At least with logical advice!

    I ditto the other ladies.  Once born, the child will be covered under his insurance as a dependant because it is his child.  You don't have to be married.

    Congratulations on your pregnancy and upcoming marriage!  I totally agree with what the other girls said - your baby will be covered once it is born, so as long as you have personal medical insurance for maternity care and hospital costs for the birth, you should be just fine.

    And if for whatever reason you both decide that it will be best to get married sooner so you can be covered by TriCare sooner, then just be honest with your families.  Glad to hear that wasn't your plan to deceive, anyway!  It's sadly far too common.  Good luck with everything!
