First of all, i would say Excellent work is done in the above link. Thanks.
The following questions are related to my concerns:

Q21 - Is there a "minimum balance" or "maintenance fund" required for ILR?
No, there is no absolute minimum balance required. However it is advisable to show bank statements with some savings to demonstrate that you can support yourself (and dependants) if required.
Q29 - Does my UK-born child qualify for british citizenship?
Child born in UK before either parent is granted settlement: There is no requirement for a non-travelling UK-born-child to be included in the settlement application of the parent (that the child is a dependant of). Immediately after a parent is granted settlement, their child is entitled to register for British citizenship (Section 1(3)), irrespective of child's immigration status.
Child born in the UK after either parent has been granted settlement: Is a British citizen by birth.
Q30 - My UK-born child has never applied for leave. Can I skip including him in the settlement application?
The important point is that children born in the UK are not required to seek permission, if they remain in the UK. Children born in the UK, who are not British, are not illegal entrants because they have not entered unlawfully. If they have not applied for leave to enter/remain in the UK, then they are not overstayers nor in breach of their conditions of leave because they do not have any conditions to breach; in principle, therefore, they may remain in the UK indefinitely! After settlement, register your child as a British citizen (as explained in the question above).

All above is well understood. But There are some points i got in my mind if you please have a look:
1- I phone the home office and they said you need to apply for your baby when you will apply for ILR. I intentionally mentioned that i was reading on immigrationboarads.com that i don't need to apply and that i can directly register my baby as soon as i will get my ILR done.
2- I Should skip baby from my ILR or i should not skip baby from my ILR, there is nothing like any hint/advice on UK Website?
3- What i understand is that i should apply for myself and my wife and later i can register my baby directly?
4- I don't need to get current nationality passport and ID cards at all?
5- I checked on calculator and it seems everything is smooth regarding scoring points and getting ILR successful. But is there any risk involved if skip baby (which is in fact a important point as it will save me to pay her application fee)? keeping both positive and negative results of the application?
thanks a lot.
