What should I do or not do here?
So Mr. Winged has not spoken with his sister since our trip. I'm not sure if she's talked to anyone in the family. He doesn't bring it up with his mom a lot so she won get sad but at last talk, there was no contact. But I'm getting sad for him that here we are getting ready to have a baby and I'm just sad that he doesn't have any contact with his sibling who he had been so close to. And I know that he hates conflict and despite all that went down he doesn't want to go through life never speaking with her. (he has said as much). So do I just remain silent? Should I prompt him to reach out now? Wait until the birth? I just don't want a sad husband.

I don't know that I would push it right now. Maybe just suggest that he call or text closer to your due date. Babies make everybody squee. Maybe that can be your tension breaker (yes, I am suggesting that you use your soon-to-be born child to your advantage).
It would suck to push him and then have her still be a douche. It would just re-open still tender wounds.

I say leave it alone too.
If he seems sad after the birth that he hasn't talked to her, the line from I don't remember who about you supporting him in whatever decision he makes is good.
