How can I beg without sounding pathetic?

My husband of 9 years has cut me off. We have a 10 month old baby who is the joy of our lives but other than the baby, I feel like we are just roomies. He refuses my advances over and over. [FYI, I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight.] How many times can you ask for sex and be rejected before it starts to wear you down emotionally? How can I have a discussion that starts with, 'I know you masturbate to on-line porn every night after I go to bed.' without sounding wounded and like a disapproving mom (which technically, I guess I am!)? I feel like we're heading for a divorce. He doesn't ever want to talk about it and says this is all temporary. He says that he 'feels differently about sex now that he's a dad.' I don't understand - sex has never been a problem for us. I feel like we're roommates who happen to have a kid together. How do you find a way to talk about this without begging or threatening or scolding? Any advice? Any idea what he means about fatherhood changing your attitude toward sex?
