Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.

This knee pain might very well be related to fluid retention in your legs. This is common during pregnancy. Obviously, the increased weight is an issue for your knees as well, but you imply that this is likely a new, rapidly worsening problem. For this reason, it is worth discussing with your doctor and asking if there are any concerns regarding your blood pressure. Otherwise, most women can safely take Tylenol (acetaminophen) during pregnancy for pain.

I hope that this helps and good luck!
