Child support question

I recently gave Birth two months ago. My child’s father comes to visit him every day but never gives me a dime for the baby.

For some reason I’m not comfortable with asking and I’m also unsure if I can put him on child support since he does come see the baby every day unless he’s out traveling for business.

I would love some insight on how child-support works and if I should put him on child support even though he comes to see the baby.
