It depends. Here is Polish law:
"ELIGIBILITY TO ACQUIRE POLISH CITIZENSHIP
By descent from parents, where at least one of them is a Polish citizen/Ius Sanguinis
A child acquires Polish citizenship by birth when:
1. Both parents are Polish citizens, or
2. One of the parents is a Polish citizen, whereas the other is of unknown or undefined citizenship or does not possess any citizenship … (Art. 4)
A child of parents of which one is a Polish citizen, while the other is a citizen of another state, acquires Polish citizenship by birth. However the parents may, in a declaration made in conformity before the proper authority within the course of three months from the day of the birth of the child, choose for the child the citizenship of the foreign state of which one of the parents is a citizen, if according to the law of that state the child acquires its citizenship."

Czesc Bicho!
Say, you are a Polish citizen living abroad and you just became a father. If so, congratulations!
Regardless of the citizenship status of your daughter's mother, your daughter automatically became a citizen of the Republic of Poland -- at birth. In other words, nothing needs to be done for your daughter to acquire Polish citizenship. The government of Poland is already treating your daughter as a Polish citizen under the Polish law, even if she also automatically became a citizen of another country, such as the United States.
In order for your daughter to reap full benefits of her Polish citizenship in the future (including the right to work anywhere in the European Union), you should obtain official confirmation of her Polish citizenship status. One of the documents you should get for her is a Polish/EU passport. You may have to arrange for her to have a Polish residence address to get some additional documents. That should not be a problem if you have relatives in Poland. In any case, a Polish residence address should not be necessary just to confirm her Polish citizenship and obtain her Polish passport. All this will take you months of paperwork and hundreds of dollars in consular fees, but it's worth it.
Your first step should be to identify the Polish consular office that is appropriate for the state which you live in. To find out which consular office is the right one for your location, you can contact the Polish consul general in Washington. His contact information is as follows:
* e-mail: polconsul.dc@verizon.net
* phone: (202) 234-3800 ext. 2201
* snail mail:
Counselor Wlodzimierz Sulgostowski
Embassy of the Republic of Poland
