'Great Scott' hit it on the head..........
being rude, crude, inconsiderate, picky and in general a jerk is not illegal and you being pregnant has no bearing on it.
if you are treated differently solely because you are pregnant that is a different issue.
from what you have stated you just happen to work for an idiot...........
you can go to HR and ask for a meeting with someone from that department and your boss,
if your employer does not have an HR department speak to your bosses immediate supervisor and ask for a meting with the three of you,
if your boss does not have a supervisor then ask for a meeting one on one with your boss and explain your concerns.
if nothing changes you can quit or request leave under FMLA.........
if you do quit your insurance should be covered under COBRA and if you take a leave the employer can require you to pay your portion of the insurance premiums while you are on leave.
if (a big if) you truly believe you are being discriminated against solely because of your pregnancy then you contact the EEOC .
to learn what is and is NOT discrimination, how to file a complaint and the steps that MUST be followed:

u can report ur boss, U R PREGNANT and everyone knows that stress MUST be at a minimal for pregnant women, u can talk to him maturely and tell him that, and if he doesn't stop. report him. but regardless of ur pregnancy u don't deserve to deal with this, u r at a place of business and if he can't conduct himself maturely, then the company should reprimand him or find someone that will do his job properly. u have to stand up for urself.
good luck
Immediately report it to his boss and personnel. They will put a stop to it because they know it is illegal and the company can be held financially liable if they don't.
If they don't help you. Get the lawyer and get the money girlfriend!
Get a free consultation from a lawyer, in person
Nothing. It's not illegal to be a jerk.
First, do not let him make you quit your job. You do not want to be without the insurance or without a job. Also, you may be covered under FMLA and do not want to loose this federal protection as well.
I recommend that you place a formal written complaint with his boss or with your human resource department (if there is one). This gives your employer the chance to correct his behavior and serves as documentation if needed at a later date to place a complaint with the DOL if your employer fails to resolve the matter.
I would be happy to help you draft the written complaint or provide further legal avenues to pursue after you place the written complaint, please feel free to email me if you would like my assistance.
Best wishes.
