Work are trying to make me quit

So I work for a small business.
They know I have made their clients numbers rise by a considerable amount.
However, because they are a small business with a small influence in a number of fields (mine being the smallest) I feel like they are trying to push me to leave

My new manager has been a huge b**ch trying to get me in trouble with my direct line manager (saying ive done things i shouldnt or not done what is asked when I have) and then giving a pay rise and promotion to the executive that used to work under me. What is worse, shes also given the credit foe my hard work to the executive in an email to my boss.
Then when ive question it and highlighted in an email back that I finalised the specific piece of work, her response was "well its still not complete" no sorry or nothing

The thing is im only 10 weeks pregnant and I cant tell my boss for another two weeks once I have had the scan. Im hoping this will make her ease off.

But im not sure what to do.
I used to love the job but now shes replaced my old manager (and the executive isnt a ray of sunshine either) I really want to leave.... but I will need my maternity money....

How can I cope for the next two weeks?
I just feel like im being attacked constantly at work. Im coming back and crying to my OH most nights now....

Go to your doctor and say you are being bullied and to name the bully. Go off sick with stress. Keep notes, privately, keep a log of incidents and witnesses.

Also I would tell work in confidence that you are pregnant. You have a lot more protection under employment law when you are pregnant but the employer has to know.

Update if interested...

I got fired (they called it garden leave) saying my role was no longer needed. I told them i was pregnant and they said it has already been decided. Cant go back.

I had a miscarriage the next day from stress.
I found a new job a month later.
Left my then BF as he didnt even visit me in hospital during that time.
I stayed in the new job for 3 months as my mind wasnt ready for work and didnt perfom aa well as normal

Plus side
I met my now BF at the new job place
I changed job to one less demanding and been there a year
My and my BF moved in together in October after a year together
He gave me a promise ring two weeks ago
We want to try for a baby in 2021
