He's trying to pick fights with me and I'm not biting.
Standard operating procedure for WASs - pick a fight with the LBS, then justify their leaving by saying "see? That's why I couldn't stay with you"
You are wise to not take the bait. Stick to the high road. "I won't stand in your way, but I cannot deal with this right now with a newborn" is a good answer. If he persists, you can also use the "please speak to my lawyer about all financial matters". Trust me, no judge in the world would make you sell the house tomorrow.
If he's pushing to sell, get good legal advice. And try to think about what would be best FOR YOU. Meanwhile, the DB trick is to APPEAR as if you're cooperating with a divorce, while secretly dragging your feet.
Do you have a support order in place? If not, you may need to do that. As long as he's paying the bills and giving you money, fine - but the second it looks like he's going to stop, get your attorney to act. Meanwhile, if there's any way you can skim some cash from the household budget, and hide it under a mattress, you may want to have an emergency fund.
He's feeling guilty about what he's doing, that's why he's pushing so irrationally.
