    I had this in my last pregnancy, and it started even earlier this time.  A maternity support belt helps some, but the best thing I've done is to make sure I get into a chiropractor who is experienced in working with pregnancy women on a regular basis. 

    Also, sleep with a pillow between your knees if you don't already.

    Sorry to hear you are having so much pain. I had something similar when I was pregnant. I also went to a chiropractor and it help quite a bit. I also found that if I slept with two pillows between my thighs not just one it made sleeping more comfortable. If you can manage it use firm and thick enough pillows so your thighs are not bent in but are parallel. It is a bit of a feat but man did it take the pressure off my low back and hips.
