Re: Child custody
By the way you've posted this, I assume your child is in Florida (along with your ex-boyfriend). You haven't posted enough information other than for me to say that you need to hire a Florida lawyer right away. In Florida, "joint custody" (where you each have equal control over your child) is the default, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. If you mean 50/50 custody, obviously that won't happen because you live in different states.
Re: Child custody
Presuming your ex-boyfriend and child live in Florida, generally under Florida law you are entitled to visitation, at the least. There are many facts that need to be provided to adequately answer your question.
If you wish, please feel free to e-mail me facts, your telephone number and a convenient time to call you.
