Hi - i've been taking my DD (who is now 19 months) swimming for a just over a year now. In fact we went this morning and i'm due to give birth this Friday so provided you're feeling well, there's no reason to stop going because you're pregnant!

It's become a fabulous morning activity for us and she always has a good sleep on a Tuesday as a result of morning swims. The classes have given me great ideas for playing in the water with her so when we go on our own she doesn't get bored so quickly - or cold - and can enjoy it more than just bobbing around.

It's been nice for me to meet other local mums too.
