I am so sorry about the situation but congratualtions on both the marriage and the child. I m assuming that your wife is over 18 as well. She is now an adult and her mother can not control who she sees. Certainly she can not control who the baby sees. But she can control your ability to see them at her house if they are living there. So I think you have the answer to what comes next. Good luck.
