I don't think asking them is pushing them into a decision or at all out of line.

You need to watch out for you (and your business) just as much as they need to do whatever is right for them so I would simply say

"Say Sally, I was wondering what your plans are after the baby is born in regards to child care?"

You already have a few ideas or notions of what they "might" do so why not just ask. I am sure they will appreciate you bringing it up as they may be dreading the conversation as well (thinking they will be hurting your feelings and such) Sounds like they have already told you little tid bits that make it sound as though they HAVE had this conversation themselves at home...kwim?

Just ask. Can't hurt and will open the door for future conversation if it doesn't get addressed completely when you ask. Plus, it shows them that you too have to worry about what will happen next just as they do.
