3rd trimester pain when walking

Im a ftm 36 weeks and I am experiencing pain when I walk. What can I do to relieve the pain? My job requires walking so I dont have the liberty of sitting down? Sometimes I cant even stand up straight up when I walk. Are there any stretches or exercises that can help? It feels like the baby is kicking my va jay jay!  The pain is very sharp  in lower underside of my belly.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks!!!!

A bath helps me temorarily.. The water creates a weightless environment and relieves the pressure from the baby/gravity. I take one everyday..

Take Tylenol, when you get home take a warm bath to take pressure off stomach and the pain your having. Lay down and elevate your feet.
