Can I be denied health/dental insurance from my employer because my wife is pregnant? I work in Costa Mesa, CA

I have been an employee for a year and could only enroll during open enrollment. My wife is only being put on my dental. They said after the baby is born then we are cover?
--------------------
I'm pretty sure that's illegal. My wife was 2 months pregnant when I started my new job and she was covered right away. I think pregnancy cannot be considered a "pre-existing condition." But then again, California is more liberal than Texas about those things. It may be different there.
