>>> Are you planning to have a baby exactly in the month of September 2012? Wow! that is pretty advanced planning.

1. Can she go and stamp anywhere in the month of December?
>>> Yes. She can get the H4 stamped from any U.S consulate in India.

2. if yes what is the procedure. Mine is Kolkata consulate
>>> Procedure is the same - Fil DS-160, take the visa appointment, carry the required documents and do the visa interview well.

You can go for the visa interview anytime. Visa is just an entry document to U.S and you need a valid visa only when you want to enter U.S. When you are inside the country, your I-94 will determine your valid immigration status.
