Do i need to file a seperate I-129F Petition for the child of my spouse?

No, the child will need a separate I-130.

No. All you have to do is make sure that the child is mentioned in the I-129f (of the spouse) and all the other documents like the Affidavit of Support where it asks who else is traveling together with your spouse.

It would be a better idea to do a I-130 for the child alongside theI-129f for the spouse. Previously it made sense to do I-129f when they were getting approved months ahead of the I-130. In that scenario, you would make sure the child is documented on the I-129f and other documents requested. But now it seems that both are being approved at the same time, therefore it is almost useless to petition through I-129f.
