Pregnant and having marriage problems

I've been my husband for over 20 years since I was 17. We have 2 girls ages 9 and 4 and I'm due our 3rd baby on 01/08/18. Since November my husband has had issues at work and he was given a final written warning in january and has been signed off work since then with work related stress. I helped him with his appeal etc but unfortunately he lost that too. He was seen by occupational health last week at his own request to see about returning to work in a different role. Last night when he came home after visiting his mum and his best friend he said he wasn't going back to work and was going to take his employer to a tribunal. I couldn't believe it, he wants to waste what savings we have just to prove a point. I can't enjoy this pregnancy and feel terribly guilty, I'm struggling mentally. I threatened to leave as I can't take it anymore. It's not the first time he has put me through hell. He lost his job twice during the recession and didn't work for a year. I do believe he has been treated unfairly by his employer but that's life and it happens in every large organisation. Am I being unsupportive and selfish to feel this way? This should be a happy time and just when I think we are getting somewhere he wants to mess it up. I'm on 10mg citalopram from my doctor as I've suffered on and off over the years with anxiety and depression. I just don't have any fight left in me and each day is a struggle and I feel I'm neglecting my unborn child and I'm starting to feel trapped.😥😥
