This shite is learn as you go man. Mine was almost 4 when I found out about him. Each child is different. You must be his father and make sure you know the distinction and difference between father and friend. Don't be his buddy but don't be a total asshat either.

It's actually pretty easy at this initial stage and at that age: time. Be there as much as possible, interact, build up a relationship.

How many other kids you got out there?

wow...can't even imagine.
It's also great you want to be in the kid's life, but if you are in Louisiana, a few things before you bit off that financial obligation:
a) was she still married when the child was born? If so, the husband is presumed the father
unless
b) did he renounce paternity within the requisite deadline? - I think it is one year from the date of birth - if he didn't, I believe the presumption is "fixed"
I am not saying be a deadbeat, but you may not have to pay full freight.
If my wife told me now that Oh BTW, this kid is not your son I'm way too attached to the kid to just step aside.
Not to mention the kid's connection to the ex husband as well

Kids raised by single moms have much higher chances of making it into pro sports so I say dip out

First thing I'd do is buy a gun.
1. Because that's always my first advice for anyone in any situation.
2. Because the guy who's wife you were sleeping with, fathered a child with, and allowed him to raise and bond with is going to be coming for you.

Congrats. You skipped the hardest part of first 3 years. Sad part is the first 3 years is when they bond with you.
Time is the best thing you can do. Spend time with him, play with him. Be cautious of what you do around him. They observe and want to be you. Hardest and most responsible job is being a parent.

Wait til Mommy figures out she can go to court and get child support...possibly in arears. you can expect to be contributing at least 250 every other week.

Had a guy I use to work for found out he had a 10 y/o son...
Mom showed up at the door with the kid, after he'd already been married for about 8 years. There was no denying, the kid looked just like him...

Some advice from a fellow father:
- at three they are old enough to understand situations and your reactions to things but not old enough to always behave and act the way you think they should. I see parents thinking their 3 or 4 yr old to act like an adult. It just doesn't work that always. Patience is key.
- spend time with him just don't sit him in front of a TV or tablet
- don't bad mouth the mother. No matter how big of a bitch or count she is being. He will figure it out later in life and look back at how you handled that situation.

Tie his right hand behind his back to make sure he is left handed. Then teach him to throw a curveball
