The new baby can be claimed by your fiance as a qualifying child if the birth was December 31st or earlier for 2017.
Your son, if not the child of your fiance may be a qualifying relative, but not a qualifying child because the relationship rule will not be met until you are married. He cannot be the qualifying child of another person such as his Father.
