Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

Visitation? Drugs?-Support Action?

Husband abandoned me two weeks ago, we have 3 children, I am two months pregnant, it is a high risk pregnancy and I cannot work. He took my only transportation. He left me for woman who lost custody of her children due to past drug use. They are living in my minivan together.

I have read the Indiana Statutes and am I under the correct impression that he would only get supervised visitation due to the abandonment and who he is associating with? I dont want my kids around her, how could the courts take her kids away from her but allow him unsupervised visitation only to bring her around my kids?

Can I file this to get him to pay for our essentials, house,food, vehicle, utilities, medical etc? He has deserted me and my kids and does not even call. Am I likely to win my motion if I file one? Is this what this statute is for? Seems like it is and do I need an attorney to do it? thanks so much.....

Also, how would me being pregnant relate to our divorce, is it true
