You will need to go to the courts, and file to establish custody or visitation rights.

if you want to help raise your son, you need to go for joint custody if you live close enough to her

If you are not already, establish yourself through the courts as the father. (Ask the court facilitator how to do this if you aren't sure). In that paperwork will be parenting plan and child support paperwork. Make sure you make the parenting plan as fair to you as possible. You probably won't get custody, but make sure you ask for summer time (Like 4 weeks of summer) and holidays and such if you are close by ask for more. I think it is cruel how some people (I won't just say women) use the child as a weapon like this. In WA state they call it the "Unfriendly Parenting Act." Make sure you do what is best for your child. DO NOT WAIT to do this. If you are a good guy without any violent past or problems...then the worst that can happen to you is you could get every other weekend...and holidays. So go for it..and even if you get back together...you should still file the est. of parentage just because if she pulls this again...you will have your rights established.
