Pregnancy induced TMJ

Hey everyone I'm 9 weeks pregnant and for the last couple weeks I've had what feels like lock jaw. Hurts to clench my teeth, chew hard things and fully open my mouth without an aching that goes from my jaw to ear area. I've looked up that you can develop TMJ from the hormones? Who else is experiencing this? Does it improve as your pregnancy progresses? Does it fully go away after having baby? Thanks 😊
