You will need to file a Petition to Establish Paternity, Custody, Visitation, and Child Support. The sooner you can file, the better. You should also continue to try to reach your ex, without harassing her. Your efforts to stay in contact need to be in a form that can be used as evidence. You should also be trying to get information through other sources, such as friends, family, and social media. Consulting with an attorney to better determine your rights and responsibilities, as well as how to procure evidence that can be used in court, is crucial.
