I wouldn't think so. You are the mother therefore you all ready have custody of your baby. Your coworker is wrong. Unless you have another person who wants the baby as the natural mother your rights are established. Custody issues come from a spouse or partner that wants the baby.
If the new parents agree to it or if their parental rights are taken away due to neglect etc you can file for custody as a grandparent if that is legal in your state.
It depends on state law, but usually more than a name on a birth certificate is required for an illegitimate father to obtain custody or parental rights. He have to provide a DNA test to prove he is the father and then he can petition for custody.
The answer depends on the details such as- whether the parents are married or if unmarried whether the father has established his paternity.

No. If the child's' mother calls the police you could loss custody of your child and possible go to jail. If I was you I would contact a lawyer who specializes in child custody cases. If you can get a notarized letter from the mother saying it is okay and giving you full custody.

The father's rights in the state of Oklahoma are dependent on the marital status between the mother and father. If the parents are married at the time of the birth or marry 300 days following the birth of the child, the man is considered to be the legal father. However, if the child is born out of wedlock the father must petition to establish custody to gain rights within the court system.
The University of Oklahoma is located in Norman, Oklahoma. This town is south of Oklahoma City, the capital of Oklahoma.
The father may establish paternity his paternity through a paternity affidavit that must be filed with the state Department of health within 72 hours of the birth. Otherwise the general means by which an unwed father can petition for custody is as follows. Remember that in order to obtain legal and physical custody he must show that custody in the mother would not be in the best interest of the child. An unmarried father must establish his paternity and arrange for a custody hearing if he wants custody. Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in every state until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity by signing the birth certificate at the time of birth (waiving DNA testing rights) which must be done with mother's consent. If he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he must seek another way to establish his paternity and that is done through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity has been established the father can request visitations, joint custody or full custody. If the father desires a visitation schedule he can request that the court issue a visitation schedule. The court will also issue a child support order if the child is to remain in the custody of her mother. The court will schedule a hearing and issue orders that are in the best interest of the child.
