the fact that he's become more like this since you had a baby is concerning. I believe pregnancy/arrival of child is a common 'triggerpoint' where controlling men begin to reveal their true nature.
It’s making you feel anxious about leaving the house in case he disapproves, like you’re a child. That’s not okay, whatever his nationality.
People often see controlling men as being caring, and thoughtful and keeping women safe and being concerned for their children. Until too late.
Having read through all your posts here this is the view I'm left with too.
If he was anxious for your safety, he wouldn't be giving you disapproving/angry looks he would be looking worried.
If he was anxious for your safety he would be making suggestions to enable you to get about and to empower you instead of leaving you anxious whenever you go out because you're worried about his reaction.
If this came from a place of caring he wouldn't talk about you like you're an object he owns and can just put somewhere convenient.
The fact that this is so seemingly trivial yet repetitive and is having a restrictive impact on you (and you reaching a point where you become upset and afraid when you go out is restricting you) is concerning, and it is neither normal or acceptable. The other factors it combines with (the fact it's become worse gradually since your pregnancy, the way he treats you and refers to you in other contexts, the badgering...) concern me.
It might be hard to really know what to think after the conflicted responses you've had here. Although I too am amazed there are people who could possibly read all you've posted and excuse it.
It sounds like your instincts are telling you this is wrong, but you're finding it hard to trust them or know what to do about it.
You don't have to label what he's doing anything if you don't want, although I do think your assessment of it as controlling is accurate. You can do the Freedom Programme online (www.freedomprogramme.co.uk). Might be worth doing so you have some impartial information for you to make your own decision about what's going on and what you want to do about it?
You're not labelling him a "monster" or anything else by gathering helpful information; people who engage in abuse (and controlling people to the extent it causes them distress is abuse) aren't monsters, they're regular people with a mixture of positive and negative traits. Any abuse is a choice they make separately to that.
As a final observation, I found this really quite disturbing:
He say's there's no issue and its a normal question to ask but in my "fucked up head" I think it's sinister, like he doesn't want me to go out.
This is the kind of response you would expect from somebody who was being controlling and abusive, trying to make out you're crazy and undermine your own judgement. Gaslighting is not a normal response to being challenged about behaviour.
For what it's worth I see nothing wrong or "fucked up" about any of the decision making or actions you've shared on this thread, nor in your desire to be able to leave the house without being harassed afterwards for having done so. I don't think how you're feeling about his behaviour is the result of having a "fucked up head", I think it's because you have good instincts and know you don't deserve to be treated like this.
