I'm sorry km 
I'm going through similar. I'm in so much pain, so overwhelmed and tearful, I can't do anything with LO and I really need OH's help.
Yesterday OH went out at 11am and wasn't back until near 1am this morning! I text him angry about it as didn't even know where he was and he had the cheek to sleep on the couch because apparently I'm the one in the wrong here? This morning he lay in bed until 9.30am, took LO out for an hour then went to football, he took the car when he knew I needed it as really wanted to go to a baby/toddler sale today plus we live in a tiny town so it leaves me and LO stuck in. He didn't get back until 5pm. He won't just watch a DVD with me or anything meaning I'll end up heading to bed bored so he'll disappear out to his mates to play PS3 until midnight/1am, come home, wake me up and snore all night then I'll have to fight with him to get him up in the morning for work. I remember he went like this before LO was born too - is this your OH's first? It's like they suddenly feel like they are going to be trapped and have no life and have to go to the extreme opposite end. Men
I had such a hard day yesterday, I can't even take my LO out for a walk for longer than 15mins as I'm just so tired and uncomfortable and she's driving me crazy being stuck in the house. OH helps with the day to day stuff but he NEVER does anything like take her to soft play etc. to wear her out - only if I force him to like this morning I put LOs shoes and coat on and handed him a loaf of bread to feed the swans. It's so unfair on LO because I don't have the energy to do anything with her. I might try and brave swimming for half an hour tomorrow morning with LO as it always wears her out.
