If you have not legitimated the child, then you will need to file an action for that along with a request for custody/visitation priviledges. Along with all that, you will need several items including a proposed "Parenting Plan", a "Child Support Addendum" along with the Support Worksheets. Most folks do get a lawyer to handle these types of issues.
