I've been dreadful just recently -was managing lots of walks (and even bike rides) in earlier pregnancy but now it's so dark and cold! Also doesn't help that I've had a sore throat/cold for the last week :(

Was thinking of looking into swimming after Christmas -can get off the bus on the way home from work. But will my costume still fit or can I get a large one cheaply?!

I made myself still go out on walks, as it's the only exercise I usually enjoy. I guess I'm lucky that even at 39 weeks my waterproof top and trousers still fit, otherwise I might not have gone out the last few weeks when it has been so awful out.

I've been going along to a weekly aquanatal class too. It isn't a great workout, but the music is a good way to lift the spirits and nice to chat to some other pregnant ladies. Thankfully I got a cheap maternity tankini in the summer sales.
