Hemorrhoids appear more likely, check with your Ob-gyn at next visit. Try avoiding constipation, keep stool consistency soft. If proves to be hemorrhoids, it will get better after delivery.

If you have hemorrhoids, which is likely, avoid constipation. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Consult this site for fiber foods. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948
