I had severe pelvic pain too and could barely walk. Warm compresses helped a bit, but honestly, it only went away after delivery. Do check with doc.

This is often Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD). My doctor advised sleeping on the side with a pregnancy pillow and avoiding heavy lifting. If severe, do check with doc.
