Your parents are obligated to pay for your health care until you are emancipated and you should be on their health insurance if they have one. Since you live at home, I assume, medicaid would look at the income for the entire household and you would probably make too much. If not your parents would have to apply since you are a minor. After the baby is born you can get help for the child unless you have a separate health insurance for her then.
