Have you seen an obstetrician yet? If you are only in the first month of your pregnancy, it is very early for the developing fetus to put weight on your spine.
I do not know what is causing your symptoms. Have you ever had this type of pain before? Does any thing make the pain better or worse? How long have you been the pain?
If you have not begun prenatal care with an obstetrician, call your primary care physician. Tell your doctor about your symptoms.
