Hi, firstly congratulations on bub! grin
I can't really tell you for sure if it's from the pregnancy, but it could be highly likely. I first found out I was pregnant at about 7 weeks and I had a bad back before bub and it only got worse!
I CAN, however, suggest ways of relieving it!
I never had the money to just go get a massage so I took to doing yoga in the morning and nights, just basic stretches for even 10-15 minutes.

The link above is one of the exercises I found LIFE SAVING, just done 2 or 3 times when I got out of bed and before sleep smile
Heat packs are also nice smile
Hope you feel better soon!

Congrats, how exciting for you!
I've discovered as the weeks go on my back pain gets worse from time to time and i seem to be more susceptible to pulling it ever now and then, like under my shoulder 2 weeks ago! Get a massage quick it does help, plus i'm sure you'll want one anyways! Heat packs are great too. Hope you feel better soon smile

More then likely related, I did yoga, but I have heard pilates is just add good, its probably something you will have to continue to do throughout your pregnancy.
In saying that, my back pain was so severe that I wore a back brace towards the last months of my pregnancy and that pain was worse than labour pain, that I didn't even know I was in labour .
If you can manage it early go for it. Swimming relieves the pain but you feel like a sinking elephant.
