You will need to file for the child as there are no derivatives for USCs only LPRs

If you become a citizen, you will have to file an I-130 for the child.

Op. My 2 cents. When the time comes extend/delay your naturalization oath ceremony until after your wife and child have arrived in US. Otherwise, as others have already stated if you naturalize your child will need a new I-130 filed for them.

1. When did you file your citizenship?

2. Which field office are you close to?

3. When did you file your wife's I-130?

 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

I filed my citizenship about 7months and my wife is currently at NVC and she is already been DQ 

I agree with delaying the oath ceremony until after they have arrived in the US.. not just until after the visa has been issued. You have to be LPR when they enter the US

Unless you want to extend their wait time, you need to delay oath taking until they’re in country.

@ROK2USA how long does it take from DQ to interview? Typically.

You need to search the timelines for your country /consulate and visa type to get a sense of how long people are waiting. .
