no.
You have to have a PR when your child was born to apply for british naturalisation.
Apply for a PR for you kid when you get yours and then in a years time the entire family will be naturalised if you want to.

As your child was born in the UK, you can register him/her as a british citizen using form MN1 as soon as you get your PR.

Yes, a 2-stage process :-
  1. After you have your ILR, register the child as a British Citizen using form MN1
  2. Once you have the Certificate of Registration, apply for British Passport for the child

Why are you shouting though ?

I have, in the past, found the BIA website to be very good source of reliable information.

Yes, the baby can be registered as British national as soon as you are succesful with your ILR, but you need to pay £400. If you got you ILR before your baby was born, then it's free.
