CK - I think gentle swimming of aqua areobics should be alright with my SPD, but the problem is getting there - I cann't make any of the classes that are available, because I don't have anywhere to dump the kids when they are on. I have thought about just going to the pool myself and doing gental exercises - but haven't been able to fit it in with DH working late hours and he is dissapearing for 3 weeks at the end of this week. Walking has always been my exercise of choice. Pre-pregnancy it wasn't unusual for me to walk about 15kms each day. But I definitely cann't match even close to that at the moment.

Peanutter - the more the merrier. It is so hard to find support sometimes - I definitely need some people I can be completely honest with about how I am going and how I am feeling about my weight. So much of my weight issues are due to emotional eating, and when I am pregnant I am definitely more emotional then normal.
