Boyfriend or husband (unless he is the biological father) has no legal right to the child at all. The mother can try to go for full custody though.
With no courts orders in place, the father has no legal right to have the child living with him. The mother has sole custody and control in all states, and he can still be obligated to pay support for this time period. He needs to immediately file a motion with the court to establish his rights and for at least temporary custody, pending a full hearing, before she gets wind of the fact that she can take the child away from him at any time. see links below.
He can file for custody after the child is born but the custody will be on him and not the girlfriend. Unless you are a unfit mother the court will probably not grant him the main part of the custody though and you will share custody so the child will have both parents. If you have split up it is only naturally the other spouse will be in the child's life as well and the other parent can not do anything about that unless someone is bad for the child.
You are going to probably have to hire a lawyer that deals with child custody cases. He will help you find a way to make it look as though you are the more stable parent or gaurdian. This is gonna get messy though. My sister fought this forever with her ex.
Except in Arizona, the mother has sole custody and the father has to apply for his rights through the courts.
If the mother is found by the court to be a more suitable guardian than the father, then yes, she can.
He would have to petition the court. Unless the mother is unfit though he will get shared custody.
yes,he can even get full custody if you can be proven unfit.
You would need the signature of the person who has custody of you at the time.

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.

If paternity has not been established, then you would have to do that first. Once paternity is established, then you have to right to petition for custody.
If you choose to let her.
If you're married, than no, but if you are single, than yes. Even if married, there are few option, except through the courts, to enforce it and the same methods used by the single father would apply. see link below
