What can you do?

I lost my job because I'm pregnant, I'm the third at my work to be let go for the same reason, calling me off all November then saying I "voluntarily resigned", anyway I've gained weight from the lack of activity, I walk my dog plenty and stretch but what else can one do to stay active when your 26 weeks?

Thanks for the advice everyone, definately will look into the yoga on youtube. Yeah my boss called me off all of Nov except for two days. Now he's saying that I was unavailable and unreachable but i have phone records showing contact with my work everyday an hr before i was to come in. Each time my supervisors were calling to tell me the owner wanted me called off and no reason as to why. I've never worked for such an unprofessional employer. I was the third girl to be let go the same way for the same reason.

You should complain to EO or HR and contact the other women and complain together. This is completely wrong.  And if you women did not voluntarily resign and you believe this is all because you are pregnant then this is discrimination against women and women rights. You can also call the whistle blowers.

yoga!!! if u can't afford or dont wanna do actual classes you can look up pre-natel yoga videos on youtube. thats what I did.bits very relaxing and a great way to stay in shape and active. and definitely walk allot. I walked a mule a day at the beginning of my pregnancy. bow I'm way too pregnant for that lol but the yoga definitely definitely was wonderful for me it even helped me with my extreme anxiety and to let go of stress.
