i just recieved my noa and i was wondering would it be better to let the I-130 run its course because my wife is 4 months pregnant or file an I-129f

The I-129f is a fiancé(e) visa - to get married. You're already married - the I-129f no longer applies to you. Stick with what you're doing. :)

Cr-1, it is unlikely the K-3 will save you time to have the child in the US anyway...and it can delay your case

Good luck

PS - prepare for your wife to have the child abroad, prepare the CRBA documents now

If married, one can file the I129F after the I130 to petition for the K3 it is not just for fiance visas

good luck
