Personally I feel the Fiancee route would be the optimum solution based on the information you've shared.
Having said that it could pan out to be a tricky one due to timing.
You'd need to secure the visa and have her fly out to UK before the date of last flying due to pregnancy.

Also don't forget the condition of a Fiancee Visa is that a marriage will take place with 6 months.

Basically means you need to finalise your strategy PDQ

Yes the child can have dual nationality.
No you don't need to pay as the NHS is free for her as a Fiancee on a settlement route visa.

Another reason why I suggest having her come as Fiancee and giving birth here is due to the difficulties and long long waiting for a British Passport for the baby if born in Philippines. You'll find many stories here in the forum about that.
There are advantages to being born here in UK

Good luck whichever option you choose.
There are other risky possibilities but with timing so key you'd need a darn good plan implemented immediately.
If you can avoid having the baby born in the Philippines you'll certainly save on a lot of Red-Tape and emotional issues. IMHO.
