don't know how to communicate I need more

I'm going into my 5th month of pregnancy and this last month my so and I have been having the same argument over and over. I tell him that I want to spend more quality time together and he says we live together and I don't work so we're together a lot and there isn't a difference between the time we spend together and quality time. He really told me how annoying I am when I say something like that because it's so clingy. I just don't know how to communicate how I need him where he'll understand instead of just lashing out at me :/
