I understand your concern and totally empathize with you. Unlike you I have seen many a clients in similar situation and have resolved the issue where most of the challenges have been overcome. I strongly recommend for a counselling session, here the future of the child is involved too, there will be many a emotions ups and downs, we can resolve these challenges amicably with series of counselling sessions.

Per my experience, initially there will be lot of reluctance and lack of trust, it is also possible we may have to send a notice for your wife to appear for a discussion. Things will get resolved and we need to find a win-win situation.

If things dont work at all the last resort will be either of the two options 1. Judicial Separation + Visitation rights of the child or Child custody to you 2. Divorce (Mutual consent or Contested) + Child Custody / Visitation.

Many a times its observed the parents and in-laws unknowingly play a role in damaging the relationships and misunderstandings grow both sides, which can be resolved.

You can file a custody case before the Family Court seeking custody/ visitation rights to your daughter. It's a fairly simple petition that needs to be filed and you may even be able to reach an amicable understanding with your wife. As you are the father, you are a natural guardian and your wife cannot prevent you from meeting your daughter.
