I assume that you are not married to the father? Are there any existing court orders for custody and visitation? It sounds like there are no court orders. If the father wanted to visit with the child, he would need to file for it in court and you would be served. It doesn't sound like he is going to do this and since he has no court orders for the child, then at this time he would not have any legal rights to the child.
