Obviously, any extra weight that's applied on your spine will eventually become burden to it and accelerate degeneration process(cartilage of the joint wears out more quickly due to the extra gravitational force/weight). Your posture will be another thing you need to be careful about. During the pregnancy and After delivery, your abdominal muscles become lax and weak so cannot hold the pelvis in place unless you do exercise to strengthen them, and let it tilt anteriorly, which may increase the pressure on the lumbosacral region of the spine. This will accelerate the wearing of the joint.
