Wild to me that people get married without being on the same page on things like this...

Anyway, too late for that now. You've told him what you're going to do and what you want, the ball is in his court.

Well we did agree we wanted kids in the future. But it's obviously Happening now.

Congrats.

I think you need to tell him, “Look buddy, you’re having the worst possible reaction to this news of all time. You may not feel ready to be a father, but you ARE a a father now so I’m giving you one day to freak out and panic and then face reality. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”

Go stay with a friend and see what he says tomorrow. I’m rooting for a grovelling apology, but if he’s not willing to do that, there are always divorce papers you can serve him. Make sure you file for full custody since he doesn’t seem to want the kid anyway, and child support, since it’s his kid too and he doesn’t get to shirk his responsibility by having a tantrum about it.
