Ma'am
More information is needed. One must remember that after 3 months of pregnancy one must start exercises which should continue for atleast 1 year post delivery or more otherwise it's is very common for women to experience body pain.
Please mention you height and current weight. Have you met any physio.
A proper physical examination can shed more light on the issue and will be immensely helpful in fashioning a rehab program.
It's unnecessary that you have to suffer from a treatable cause.
Please meet a good Orthopaedic surgeon and get yourself assessed.
