I feel resentment

Okay I will make this as short as I can. My husband is a great guy and we’ve been married two and a half years. Yes we have disagreements and can argue but it’s nothing bad. Anyway, I got pregnant right after we got married. Total surprise, failed birth control. He works a lot. It wasn’t bad until he started his own business one year ago. He works, comes home with an hour before our sons bed time and is on his phone looking at work related stuff on YouTube or Facebook groups. I feel like his work always comes before me and our son. Last night I cook dinner and he’s on his phone throughout it. Get our son ready for bed and he calls his brother (also same work profession) and they talk for the longest time. Then his friend calls who is also in the same work profession and he talks to him for over an hour. Finally after waiting I decided to just go to bed at 11pm bc he was on the phone. Then he comes into the bedroom and lays down talking on the phone. So I said hey if you’re gonna talk on the phone could you please go to another room since I’m trying to go to sleep? And he said yes and I guess went to the spare room. Then I get woken up at 1:30am to our garage door opening. And he’s coming back From his office. He left sometime after 11pm. I hardly got to speak to him. After staying at home with a toddler all day, I crave adult conversation and it sucks when he’s so busy talking about work or doing work stuff.

It’s like this all the time. Everything is about his work and he’s constantly talking about it and I have so much resentment towards because I feel on the back burner and I’m not being prioritized. He wants to have another baby and I would too. But I just don’t feel like we are in a good spot to have another one although we get along great. But I just need him more present. I guess I just needed to vent.
