Hello,
The symptoms you have mentioned are suggestive of pudendal neuralgia, wherein the pudendal nerve faces entrapment and thereby causes pressure effects. The cause is not known most often. I think you should consult your doctor to look for the cause (perhaps the pubic separation that occurs at this time of pregnancy). Treatment is mostly symptomatic. Good luck.
