I have a 6 month old baby whose father is Dominican but was born in Canada (her Canadian documents contain his and my last names), if I bring her to DR can he stop me from leaving the country with the baby?

I wouldn't
I don't want to suggest any legal considerations. Legality is not always the foundation of problems here. In other words, your legal rights may not always outweigh the lingering potential for aggravation. You don't have to share with us the "relationship" you and the father of your child currently have. So let me just remind you, that in this country, men, as useless and shy of responsibility as so many are, still feel they have ALL rights... only RIGHTS. Right to "their" child, even if they never gave it any support, "their esposa" even when divorced and them being at fault. Then it's "their" country and they have certainly their family backing them, no mater what the tell you.
So, the question, beyond the one of actual legal rights goes to you perception of how thing are between you and him and his family.
What is the motive of the trip (with the child)? Has it been suggested by the "father" wishing to see "his" child after how long? Has he tried to get money for xyz reasons from you? Has he supported the child financially?
You don't need to answer this HERE... it's just questions I suggest you ask yourself then the main question is, how likely is he to try to put you and your child in a difficult situation (like just trying to delay or difficult your timely return home) in order to obtain something (money, you, the baby or all) from you?
Now, my recommendation: If you have doubts, then I suggest Oahu, Maui or the Bahamas as your next vacation destination. Then, it may just not be worth the aggravation.
... J-D.
