Legal Question in Family Law in Louisiana

Divorce/Pregnancy

I am in the middle of a divorce (separated and divorce should be final in Aug.). My wife is just announced that she is pregnant. Will this change anything related to the divorce? (Legally speaking)I am the father.

You have 180 days after the birth to file this suit.
