Angry Am i being unreasonable HELP!

First of all i wanted to say sorry this post is long and thanks to anyone that replys. I am a 25 year old with a son that is 18 months old i have been married for almost one and a half years now. I am just so upset my husband is no help with our child he thinks because he works 4 days a week that he shouldnt have to share the responsiblity of raising our son. Sometimes during the winter he doesnt even work the full 4 days and othe times he works 6-7 but only on shutdowns which are temporary, he also at times has to go off to schooling for a week at a time which is so hard on me. He acts like because he works he always has a reason to be tired i understand he prolly is most of the time cause he sits up late and plays his video games, but he thinks when he is home that is his time and it shouldnt be interrupted and because i stay home i should never be tired. He doesnt understand i am always cleaning and taking care of our son at the same time. He never picks up after himself ever never does any housework and anything for baby, I feel as if he is more of a child to me than a husband...he has never once bathed him and might change 1 diaper every 1-2 weeks, to add to my stress i have ocd so that makes everything so much harder on me because i have to have everything in order or i panic. He doesnt understand this at all, he just thinks im crazy...he thinks i shouldnt stress at all i think he resents me staying home all time but i would gladly do his work if he would do mine the work i do is 24-7 i cannot get him to understand that at all. He even has the nerve to critize my parenting skills at times ...even on weekends he wont get up with our son and let me sleep in just once. Our son still wakes up once a night most of the time and my husband has never woke up with him it has always been me. Thank goodness his mother helps me out or i would have done went nuts. He doesnt ever feed or son and plays with him maybe a few hours a week MAYBE! He cant even spend time with me...if we do he just wants to have sex then goes back to whatever he wants to do...I tell him over and over if he doesnt start helping i will leave him he thinks im kidding, but im not i am just fed up i have one baby to raise i dont need him to clean after as well.....please anyone that could give me any advice i would really appreciate it. I just dont know what to do at this point Thanks!
