Summer work, pregnant

So basically by the time summer work hits I’m going to be 20 weeks pregnant. This will be my 3rd pregnancy. I have to do a bunch of stripping and waxing during the summer and I’m really concerned with my ability to do it. This will be by 3rd pregnancy and during my other 2 pregnancies I suffered from something called pubic bone dysfunction, and it’s incredibly painful.
At our school we do not have the proper equipment to strip and wax and a lot of it is using scrapers to get like 70 layers of wax off the floor because it hasn’t been done in so long.
My boss recommended I get a doctors work for either modified or to take medical leave over the summer. I just feel incredibly guilty doing that right now since I’m not in massive amounts of pain yet. It is starting but I don’t like asking for accommodations for something that hasn’t become a problem yet, the issue is that the school needs the time to be able to organize my accommodations.
Idk I guess I just want either some advice or reassurance that what I’m doing is the right thing?
