HI and thanks for using the forum.

Congratulations on your pregnancy.   Pregnancy can cause a lot of pressure and stretching of the muscles and ligaments in your pelvic region.  It is not uncommon to experience pain in the areas that you are describing during pregnancy.  However, it is important to let your ob/gyn know about this just to be on the safe side.  Propping your legs up whenever possible is a good idea.  This can help take some of the pressure off.  Good luck.
