I need advice

I need advice on this subject because I’m going through so much depression, recently I’ve just had my child 7 weeks ago and it’s been rough I love her very much but my partner is 0 help when it comes to the baby . He started working again when she was born and he works 6 days a week 60 hrs i understand that it’s a demanding job but I feel that he can be 50/50 with me when it comes to our child I so absolutely everything around the house which is okay I don’t mind and I don’t mind that the baby is all on me but everytime I try to talk about it with him he shuts me down and says I’m being mean and makes me just cry . He also always makes remarks when I’m just trying to relax like oh the laundry needs to be done the dishes need to be done it’s easy just wear the baby . Like no it’s not easy and even his mom will
Make comments like not enough is getting done I can do this and that while having a baby it’s making me want to leave him because I’m really going through depression and trying to be a good mom to my baby but I’m so miserable . I’m sorry this is everywhere and barely makes sense I just need help I don’t have a support system or anyone that can help me take care of my baby it’s always me 24/7 but I do need a break even it’s 30 mins
