How to Leave state after the child is born.. Without the father.?

Me and the childs father are not exactly on the same level. But due to flying complications with my pregnancy I cant make it back home until AFTER I have the child. But I do not want him to pull anything stupid and make me come back to live in Tennessee. I am planning on moving in with my Mother in Reno. We're not married, nor will the child have his last name. Is there anything he can do to make me stay or have to come back? I refuse to leave my kid with him, he lives in his moms house with his pothead sister.
