You have to ask yourself what you feel for this man. Forget about the baby for now, just think honestly about whether or not you love him and want to be with him forever. I know it's hard to make the break when there's a baby involved but he can still be there for the baby if he's not your partner: plenty of people do it.
You need to think about you for once, you deserve to be happy. If he's not who you want, get out there and find the guy who is. Your child will thank you for it, he/she doesn't want to see you two arguing for all the years to come!
Spend some time apart, really think about what's going on with you and whether it can work out. All relationships have their problems but if it's meant to be, they'll work out in the end. While you're apart, ask yourself: do I miss him? am I happier and more relaxed alone? etc. I think you know the answers to your own questions deep down so don't be scared to really think about how you feel and make a decision for you and your child.
Hope you make the right decision. Good luck.
