As for 'tricking' the boyfriend...well, frankly, he probably knows that sex can result in pregnancy  If someone really, truly does NOT want to conceive a child, someone shouldn't have sexual intercourse. It's the old 'Don't like the heat, stay out of the kitchen.'

So, with the logic you put forth, I shouldn't ever have the pleasure and closeness that sexual intercourse brings in a relationship because I'm dead set on NOT having kids? With all due respect, and IMHO, that's very simplistic, 1950's black and white thinking. This, in and of itself is also, I feel, rather judgmental and harsh.
Now getting back to the OP, she wants to manipulate the situation and deceive her fiancé into having a child against his wishes. She thinks having a child will "fix" her trust and anxiety issues, when she should instead be looking for counsling/therapy on the matter. When I suggested she seek therapy in another thread, she was defensive and presented several excuses as to why she is the way she is. I should know, I am the veritable Queen of Excuse-land. Anyways, I suggest an anxiety and phobia workbook she can use while she waits for her health benefits to kick in and she can then be able to afford a therapist.
