Anyone's else's partner say "it's not that bad" or "You're overreacting" when they hurt you?

I don't want to come off as stupid or anything, because I could be overreacting. Whenever he hurts me, he says this or laughs and tells me to toughen up. Last time, he grabbed all of my fingers and bent them back as far as he could and kept going, it hurt so bad and he was holding me down. They started to pop and he kept going, I honestly started to cry because I thought they were going to break and it hurt so bad. Finally he let go and said "Oh my God I can't even play with you". He also does this when he pulls my hair to drag me across a room, chokes me or sorry as he calls it "holding my throat so I'll listen". Today, it happened again. We were watching TV and he randomly grabbed my foot and started bending my toes back, aggressively twisting them and pushing as much as he could on them back. No, he isn't "trying to pop them" or something. He kept going and pulling, pushing, twisting them very hard as much as he could and again it hurt. Keep in mind I'm six months pregnant so my feet already hurt. He started doing this to my ankle to and I was begging him to stop. He finally did and said "Oh my God if you're gonna push out a baby you can handle me PLAYING with you. Toughen up cute stuff, my son won't be weak like you". Maybe I am overreacting. My pain tolerance is very high, but it seems like he's actually trying to break my fingers or toes. Am I just supposed to laugh it off? Idk. Maybe I'm in the wrong. I'm just upset.
