If the green card was issued in error, you need to notify USCIS so that they can issue you the correct card. With regards to remaining in the US, you will be able to do so if you have a valid green card. However, you will have to file a petition to remove conditions to prove that you entered into a valid marriage, whether you stayed married or get divorced.
If you have further questions about the process, please do not hestitate to contact me directly.

When you apply for your permanent green card, you have to show that you entered into marriage in good faith. Having a baby is one of the things that you can show, but it is not the only one. If you divorce, you might still be elegible for permanent green card, but once again, you will have to show that initially you had a bona fide marriage.

If a person is the spouse of a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident and the marriage occurred less than two years before the alien spouse is admitted as a U.S. permanent resident, the permanent residence status is conditional. Thus it is important to understand whether you have been married less than 2 years before you got you permanent residence.
