Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Me and my fianc� had a baby about a year and a half ago. We started fighting and now she won't let me see my daughter. She's now telling me that I'm not the father, and she won't let me see her. She has even blocked me of any contact. I'm also not on the birth certificate because she thought it might be another persons. What steps should I take?
