Firstly, this is going to be long and possibly a bit confusing for which I apologise in advance!
A bit of back story: I'm 34 wks preg and have spd. I've been on crutches for around 12-14 wks now. I had 4wks signed off, but have been back at work for 3 weeks now with a Fit to Work note the basically involved moving my work station and being flexible. My boss is, quite frankly, an arse. I've had totally inappropriate comments from the moment I told him I was preg (well previously to that also!). He was far from happy about me being off sick, and for wks 3 & 4 I was phoned, text and emailed about work issues and how inconvenient it was for him. In the end I posted on here and phoned ACAS who helped me draft an email.
I'm due to finish in just over 3 wks, but I have no replacement. My boss refused to spend any money advertising and we had two applicants via Job Centre. One will be fine, but he doesn't like her (he actually doesn't like anyone, his words not mine). So he wants me to advertise in local paper. I emailed them to arrange it but was just getting automated responses assuring me they'd get back to me in time for the deadline. I emailed again yesterday asking if we could sort it that day as I don't work on Wednesday's, and received another automated response. I spoke to my boss about it, and also about finishing at 4pm as I had a cold coming and was in a lot of pain with my pelvis which he said was ok. the paper people replied with several options not long before I left, so I forwarded the email to him so he could choose and pay with the credit card. So........ this evening I've received in my home email a blank email from him, basically forwarding on an email from him to the paper chasing up a response at 2pm when I told him and he had info saying that the deadline was 11am, and then a reply from the paper saying they'd sent the info to me at 5.30pm yesterday. I wasn't there at 5.30pm, I'd left early, and the info had already arrived and been forwarded to my boss.
So...... I'm left absolutely fuming that he thinks he can just forward on blank emails to me at home, on my home email and on a day I'm not even meant to be working.
Plus, I've been advised by the mw to go sick or start mat leave early as I'm in pain 24/7, not sleeping and am generally exhausted. I'm also really stressed and tearful about the whole thing, which may be hormones/pain. I have doctors appointment tomorrow evening.
Help, what do I do now?? Many thanks if you've got this far

Do I really have to put up with this at home too?
