Custody Unmarried Couple

I have a 3 yr old with my boyfriend. We are in the process of splitting up. I heard that I have full custody until he proves paternity. His name is on the birth certificate and he signed some afidavit stating he was the father at the hospital when my son was born. Does he still have prove paternity with a court before he has any rights to my son?
