You can't take any pain meds to start with but baths and heat packs are ok.
I got shoved on the stairs when I was 6 months pregnant my two year old I was going too slow and ended up with chronic hip and lower back pain for the rest of the pregnancy and had to go on sick leave from work.

Acupuncture helped but I spent a lot of time just trying to manage the pain.
