indoor pools

[shellie409]

Im a ftm at 12+5 and was wondering if anyone has been told not to use indoor swimming pools or to not go swimming period? Theres a gym in my town with an indoor pool that i want to start swimming at for exercise and maybe take a light water aerobics class. Anyone think this would be a bad idea? Thanks

I swimmed all the time right until thr day before having my baby. It probably help me alot I was 5 pounds thinner after birth. I left the hospital wearing a size 0, when I used to be a size 3 before pregnancy. My bany was 8 pnds, anf didnt hurt him a bit.

Pregnant woman are usually encouraged to go swimming, its the best form of exercise for us!

Swimming is perfectly fine - if possible look for classes geared for pregnant women. You just want to avoid hot temperatures and water above 100 F
