What were your biggest pregnancy surprises and pet peeves?

Honestly, my selfish husband is driving me absolutely insane 😢
It’s like he’s suddenly terrified that his entire life is going to flip upside down in two months, so now he’s acting like a total teenager... Every single second he isn't working, he's out hitting the bars with some group of guys, and every weekend is just one long booze fest—actually, forget the weekend, he’s out drinking on Wednesdays or Thursdays or whenever the hell he feels like it! Meanwhile, I’m just sitting here at home, constantly alone, alone, and more alone... When I try to call him out on it, he just snaps that he doesn't owe me any explanations and that the real issue is me being "unable to handle" him having fun. Oh yeah, sure, that's definitely the problem! And what about our kid having an alcoholic father? That doesn't even cross his mind! Total idiot!!!!!!!!! This whole thing has been going on for months now, and I honestly have no clue how to fix this mess. Talking to him is basically useless because somehow, by the end of the conversation, everything is always somehow my fault. Apparently, I’m not allowed to get pissed off just because he started acting like he's twenty years old again. I'm supposed to just be happy and cheerful while he lives it up with his social life. His big excuse is that work is stressing him out and he needs an "outlet"... what a perfect little marriage we have! If I wasn't expecting a baby... man... Why do people change so drastically overnight? And why do they become so incredibly selfish and irresponsible? 😢
