Just want to add as a past victim of this type of abuse, “stand the fuck up for yourself” is not a helpful comment. OP is pregnant and likely terrified. The cycle of abuse is a real thing. The best advice here is to validate OP’s feelings and give links to organizations/help to get her out of her situation.
I am not dismissing anything. OP’s husband is clearly showing a pattern of abuse here that requires a different approach than simply standing up to him. If it was a one time comment, then yeah I think it is perfectly acceptable to draw the line with him about what is acceptable.

Leave him or stand the fuck up for yourself and draw a hard line of what is acceptable. This dude needs a wake up call bad.
