Ditto PP's suggesting talking to him. I know our DD#1 was planned and wanted and DH did a good job through it, but now with DD#2 on the way, I think he doesn't get how much more taxing it is on me than when I didn't have a 2 year old to take care of (but was working full time through it.) So I had to break a lot of stuff down for him: I don't sleep well because I can't get in a good position, my hips hurt, and if I magically find a good position, DD#2 tapdances on my bladder and I have to go pee. I'm exhausted and I can't do a lot of "relaxing" things (wine, sleeping pills, even time alone/relaxing time) because DD#1 is our priority. So once we talked about it, his attitude became more understanding. So, try laying it out for him, including how you would like him to be more involved, and finding out where he is coming from, too.
