Is it normal to feel like this at 8 months pregnant?

I am 8 months pregnant with my first baby. Up until now I had been feeling great apart from the usual tiredness etc. For the last couple of weeks I have been going through some real up and downs and my husband is really not contributing. I have been very sensitive and emotional and suffering with bad anxiety. I have been worrying a lot about our finances, As I am really the main breadwinner in our house. I have been worrying about going back to work when my daughter is borne as I really had hoped to have been a stay at home mum for while. Therefore, I have been looking into work from home jobs but there seem to be a lot of scams!. My husband had been great through my pregnancy. But the last few weeks he has been going through some stresses about money, child support, how we are going to survive once the baby is borne. He hasnt been helping me around the house when he knows how I have been feeling. (He does rub my feet and my back from time to time) I still work full time, I am 8 months, tired, cook and still do the cleaning! and he just complains about every smallest thing I ask him to do. I have spoken to him how I feel and he hasn't really got much to say. We are not doing much couple things these days as he always says we haven't got the money but there are plenty of things we can do that are priceless and he never seems motivated to wanting to these things! I am feeling very depressed about the whole situation! I am feeling lonely as I have no family here as they are in another country, I have made some friends here who are good listeners but they do not have time to meet these days as they have there own commitments. My head feels like it is going to explode! I keep crying and not feeling happy. I know feeling like this is not good for my health and my pregnancy I do honestly try to be positive but in reality my husband and I do have some problems that we need to address, we do talk about things but nothing ever seems to achieve or do we find conclusions. I have to keep asking him over and over as I never see results. Everything ends up in arguments. I am getting to the point that I really do not know what to do nor how to handle these situations.
