Have you kept in touch with your family physician? I had severe pain for about a week after surgery, then it started to taper off. Perhaps your family doctor can prescribe something that would be safe for you to take and not harmful to the fetus.

They can also check to see if your baby is doing okay. If your pain becomes unbearable, it may be time to contact your surgeon and let him/her know.
