This in of itself is not enough information to determine this. Where does she go? Are they left alone? What are the Father's problems? Etc... There are too many factors here. Off the cuff I would say: Full custody? No.

If a boyfriend leaves his pregnant girlfriend could he get custody of the baby?
As unfortunate as this may be it is possible for the father to get custody of the baby, but not full custody unless the mother is proven unfit. Because reguardless of what happened between the couple the father is still the father of the child, and the father still has his rights as a father to be a part of his child's life.

If mom leaves state can the father push for sole custody?
Yes, if the mother leaves the state without the consent of the father or court approval, the father may push for sole custody. He can argue that her decision to move without considering the best interests of the child demonstrates a lack of ability to provide a stable environment. The court will make a custody determination based on the best interests of the child.
Can you get custody of your child if the mother leaves state and never has him?
If the mother has legal custody but leaves the state and doesn't have physical custody of your child then that must mean the child is with someone who doesn't have custody. I assume you are not married. In that case, you must establish your paternity in court and request legal and physical custody. If the mother has left the state without taking her child with her the court will certainly want to know who the child is with and will certainly consider awarding legal custody to the other biological parent, you.Perhaps you can convince the mother to consent to your getting legal and physical custody. If not sole custody, then joint legal and physical custody.You should consult with an attorneywho specializes in custody issues. The attorney can review your situation and explain your rights and options.
Is it considered kidnapping a child if mother and father are married and mother leaves with child without telling father?
I believe it would probably be labelled as custodial interference if both parents have custody of the child. It's usually only kidnapping if someone without custody of the child takes them, though different states and judicial systems will all make their own decisions.
