There are quite a few threads on here about it. Sympathies as it is horrible. If I were you, I would seek a physio referral as rapidly as you can as it can get a whole lot worse very quickly. In the meantime, limit your activity and avoid anything that exacerbates it. Physio can identify the specific causes, give you a course of exercises to do and maybe fit you with a support belt or brace. They will also advise on the correct movements for everyday stuff like getting out of bed to protect yourself.

Pelvic Girdle Pain is really common. Go to the doc or tell the hospital at the next app. They have clinics for women who have this.
