Legal Question in Immigration Law in Florida

I'm a British Citizen married to an American Citizen, we live in Florida. I've just been granted conditional two year lawful permanent residency, through means of an i-130 concurrently filed with an i-485.

I think I may be pregnant. My husband and a close friend both filed an i-864, affidavit of support. It is my understanding that I will not be eligible, not for five years at least, for regular Medicaid as an LPR. If/when the time comes to labor and the baby's delivery; am I covered by emergency medicaid? And, would this be classified as a public charge and will it affect my ability to remove the conditions on my residency in two years? Would the government sue my sponsors for repayment of emergency medicaid? We are low income.
