I too remember in the last weeks the agony of the hips...feel for you babe!

i went to the OB for my 38 week check and he told me that it is really normal for the hips to pack it in at the end and that no, there wasnt anything that i could do to make it better other than have a baby!! LOL! i found propping pillows up high behind my back so that i could kinda lie with the pressure off my hips helped (ie lying into the pillows at the back...).

HTH
