Yes. The custodial parent can seek child support from the non-custodial parent. The amount will depend on the non-custodial parent's income. The non-custodial parent has the right to seek a visitation schedule. Both issues can be addressed in a single court order.

After the baby is born the father can go to court and request a paternity test.
