Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

I have been legally married to a woman who I separated from about 15 months ago. I want to process my divorce, but she has refused to cooperate. I just found out that she is currently pregnant and I do not know how to proceed with my divorce. Would that child be considered mine, since we are legally married still? If so, even if she is only pregnant now, do I file paperwork for a "divorce with children"? She has already told me that she is not willing to give me the divorce. What is the best way to proceed?

If the child is yours, you will eventually be responsible for child support however, you now would start an action with no children.
