Legal Question in Family Law in California

If I have my baby born in Calif and the father is in AR, I may not go back to Ar. What rights do we both have for the babies well being. If I go to Ar to visit do I have to stay because of the baby? I would like to stay in Calif. Just dont know what to legally do.
