nope. where you get stationed is entirely dependent on the needs of the military and the availability of a slot for your Paygrade and job at that location.
Family status has diddly squat to do with it.

No. You will simply continue the tour you are already on or, if you are due to move before the birth of the child, go on to the next assignment. The only thing that would effect where you could be stationed in access to medical care...they would have to be sure you would have the care all pregnent women need. If you were sent to a base that did not have critical care and you developed complications during your pregnancy, you would be temporarily assigned to a base that had the needed facilities and docs and then, after the baby was born, either go back to your base of origin or, if the needs mandated it, assigned to a base with the facilities needed.

No, you're not able to pick and choose where you live. If you're married to another service member they can TRY to get you orders in the same geographical location, though they don't get it done about 20% of the time. If you're not married you've got no guarantee to be stationed near the father at all.

No but you can chose to get out of the military or stay in after giving birth. Furthermore if you and the father are not married you can request to change stations to be near him, they'll listen.

sometimes you can. there should be a person who takes care of all that on your base, either in admin or pcc or something. you can't transfer after like 20 something weeks, though. and then you have to stay there until the baby is at least a year old unless you sign a waiver at 6 months.

No. The needs of your branch of service come before your family. If you could choose where you wanted to live every time you had a kid, we wouldn't have people in key military installations.. I mean, who would choose to live in some of the remote places people get sent?

No. The only part thing about it is, that if your child has special needs, then you can be sent to bases that fit the needs of your special needs child.

Yeah in a Maternity Ward somewhere, apart from that you go where you are told.

No. That option is for when you are initially enlisting or during your re-enlistment.
