I will assume for purposes of your question that you filed the I-130 alone and that your wife is either overseas or ineligible for adjustment of status since you did not mention an I-485 application. You do not have to do anything on the I-130 at this time under the above circumstance and you could wait until the next phase of the case, consular processing, and add your child when you receive communication from the National Visa Center, the part of the Department of State that processes most of the consular processing phase documentation.
