Third trimester blues! Pain!!!!

Hi,
In my third trimester 33+3. My hip pain is unreal, feels like they are going to snap. Moving around is so hard atm. I have 2 other kids I need to look after, a dog I need to walk, and I'm a single mum. I have no idea how to manage when walking hurts so much.
Read about SPD, and I do have underlying joint conditions which won't help.
The worst part is not being able to do what I normally do, I don't like resting and sitting around and not being active or super mam! It's making my mood so low! End up crying all the freaking time! Just want this pregnancy over with. "It won't be long" is all anyone says but 6 weeks plus definitely seems like a long time with my mood being so low.
Anyone help? Any tips/hints/general conversation so I don't feel so isolated and alone would be greatly appreciated!

Can your midwife put you in touch with a physio? I have terrible PGP so can sympathise. My physio gave me a support belt, then crutches when the pain got too much. She's also done massage on the affected area which is very sore but ultimately helpful. Other things that help are paracetamol, warm baths, ice packs and trying to rest as much as possible (obviously easier said than done). I am miserable with PGP so I do feel for you, it's a horrible thing. Take care.
