In the early weeks of my pregnancy (February 2007), I do not have Health Insurance to cover it. I was using an Ob/Gyn that gives 6 installments pay monthly in total of $1300 for prenatal care. After I finished my payment, I got a job with full health insurance (Blue Cross) that covers 100% of my prenatal care/delivery.
The Ob/Gyn gave me a letter to sign saying that the "Prenatal care / Delivery" cost of $3200 will be covered by Health Insurance and I owe $0.00.
Is it fair that they put "Prenatal Care" covered by insurance while I already paid in full in the amount of $1300?
Is it possible, legally, to claim back prenatal care of $1300 that I already paid, since today I am still in prenatal period and covered by insurance?

I'm surprised that you have a health insurance that's willing to pick up the pregnancy costs, mid term. You can ASK if they'll cover the prenatal costs in addition to the delivery.
It's possible they might, as, for example, MY doctor charges $3200 for prenatal/delivery, and doesn't bill the insurance until after the baby is born. It's a flat charge.

You were able to get insurance while you were already pregnant.? I would have thought that was a pre-existing condition and thus made you not be able to get insurance.. If you have already had the baby then I don't think it would be a good thing..

Are you sure your new insurance will cover this pre-existing pregnancy? It would be extremely unusual if they do.
