I assume there are lawyers involved in the separation or the custody agreement. You could try asking your lawyer to contact your wife's lawyer to try to head off any problems. Maybe it will discourage her from trying to claim the child if she knows the issue has been raised, or if her lawyer explains to her what would happen if she claims the child. But the lawyers cannot prevent her from claiming the child if she's determined to make trouble.
