Needing some support

Hi everyone, I need some support really, my babies dad is so unhelpful and out most evenings, we’ve been together 6 years we have a 15 month old and one on the way... our first little boy was unplanned but a true miracle as he came at 25 weeks gestation. It was a difficult journey but he’s a happy healthy little boy now! The second was a planned pregnancy, after being told I had Pcos and endometriosis we decided to try while we had age & time on our side, so our second miracle is due 26th December 19. Since having our first he’s been nothing but unsupportive and tries to get out of doing anything to help where necessary which i hate as it puts a lot of pressure on me, now I’m pregnant again I’m basically meant to be on bed rest to prevent another pre term labour - not once in the last 15 weeks I’ve been pregnant have I had more than 7 hours sleep each night not once has he cooked the dinner or helped with washing or cleaned the house not once has he helped with anything, my little boy is so active and very demanding at times and although I love him to pieces it’s beginning to become a lot of pressure for me as I’m so worried for the stress that I’m under that it could cause bumps in the road for this pregnancy and god knows what would happen if I was hospital bound and where my little boy would be without me... I ask him for help he’s never there and emotionally I am so drained and I feel like I’m having a breakdown- my welfare is this little innocents babies welfare and my 1 year old needs more love and attention from both of us... but because I’m so stressed with everything I have to do at the moment I feel like he’s not getting what he needs... I can’t stop crying I feel so alone I don’t have really any family just my mum but she’s on honeymoon for 10 days in Africa I’m so upset and just need some support on how to pick myself up and continue ... I want a healthy pregnancy more than anything and I want to be able to enjoy time with my little one but no matter what I ask of their dad he doesn’t ever help me and if he could take the pressure off of me for a few things like the cooking or cleaning once in a while I feel like I’d be much more relaxed and relieved :( xx

Sounds like he needs a big kick up the @ss.have you sat down and spoken to him about how you are feeling? That's always the best thing to do first. He maybe doesn't realise how you are feeling.
