1. " I found swimming really relaxing, especially during the 3rd trimester. The<br />

buoyancy of the water gave me this fab feeling of weightlessness which was<br />

well received at the time!" Laura, Twickenham<br />

2. "My friend lent me a maternity sleeping pillow. I guess you could use any<br />

large pillow really but putting it in between my knees at nighttime really helped<br />

with my back. Great for cosy lie-ins too...enjoy those whilst you can!" Lucy,<br />

Bristol<br />

3. "I noticed the swelling in my legs increased during the last week or so of<br />

pregnancy. It was a really hot summer and I sat with my feet elevated most of<br />

the time (hard life...!). I spoke to my midwife about it because I was worried it<br />

could be pre-eclampsia but after a check up I was given the all clear". Ruth,<br />

Wandsworth<br />

4. "I made sure I walked (waddled!) around the plane when flying to keep the<br />

blood circulating around my body". Nina, Ealing
