tankini
i told my midwife at the 12 week appointment that i was going to start swimming as a good pregnancy exercise. 11 weeks on we went to our first swimming session last night at the pool in long eaton with the cool water shute that i couldn’t go on.
it was great, really very relaxing. quite weird though, because as i was doing my just-about-keeping-nose-above-waterline breast stroke i could feel the weight of baby in my tummy, like i had something strapped around my waist. felt baby kicking a few times, as if she wanted to help me out.
need to get a maternity swimsuit if i’m going to get any bigger though (which i will be). i want a tankini, partly because that word amuses me. it’s like a bikini, just with a longer top bit, and they look really cool.
what a pointless post. at least i managed to amuse myself further with more mentions of tankinis.
