Thanks for the suggestions, feathertop. I do yoga sometimes (my yoga DVD goes on for longer than DDs naps so its a bit difficult lol), I think pilates would be even better.

I haven't had xrays for ages, to be honest it seems that no one can be bothered investigating it, since it isn't really a fixable problem - the only way to fix it would be to shatter and re-set my hip. My GP suggested buying inserts to put into my shoes, since I have fallen arches as well and the extra support should help take some of the pressure off. I haven't done that *yet* butI hope it'll help. If not I'll have to go back to my GP and harrass him some more. I told my antenatal physiotherapist but there wasn't anything she could do, it wasn't her area of specialty of course.

Biking is a really good idea. To be honest I've never learned how to ride a bike properly! Once I get over the fear thing it'll probably work really well Heck, I could ride my bike to the local swimming pools!
