While I don't have an expert opinion to offer you, I just wanted to wish you lots and lots of good, peaceful vibes for these last (and longest) weeks of your pregnancy. For what it's worth, my opinion is that it might be best to create the distance that you need until after the baby is born, and then ease back into it when you have had a chance to recover physically and create a routine with your little one. Pregnancy is such a special time, and it is unfortunate to spend a lot of time feeling upset and tense. I am 26 weeks, and just had to "break up" with a long-term friend because of the stress, anger and tension that relationship was creating - it was interfering with my ability to enjoy the rest of my life. In any case, I hope you find a solution that works for you, and best wishes.
