Partner being a selfish prat

Just wanted to have bit of rant really to make myself feel better but feel free to comment if you wish. So I’m 5 months pregnant with our first and finding pregnancy very hard. My partner has been sulking last few days which I ignored, just didn’t have the energy to deal with it. I finely confronted him this evening when he came in from work went straight up to his computer and didn’t even bother to say so much as a hello to me. His reason for sulking I find out - he wasn’t happy with the birthday present I got him. Now in fairness it wasn’t the most imaginative or expensive of gifts but as I stated above pregnancy is really taking a toll on me at the moment (and I get 0 help from him and very little understanding) and just don’t have the energy to shop around plus trying to save money for baby things. He felt I should have made a big deal out of it given as it’s the last one before the baby arrives. I just thought he was being pathetic and ungrateful after all he’s in his 30’s. Anyway thanks for listening just wanted to rant.

He’s in his 30s but he’s acting like a 6 year old. Sell what you bought him and put the money to one side ready for when the baby arrives. Don’t expend anymore energy on him.

How on earth is he going to cope when the baby arrives and you put the baby first???
He needs a big wake up call, and to start pulling his weight!!
You dont want 2 babies!!
