11 weeks - swim

started swimming today to try to reap some of those back/core strengthening benefits now so that my back can subsequently take the extra weight from baby. 
for starters, i could fit into my swimsuit (!!) and i also managed to get in a decent number of laps in the SAFRA toa payoh pool considering that i don't usually swim and i haven't done much cardio exercise in the past year *shame* may have done 10 laps or more (i wasn't really counting as i was just focused on doing as many laps as i could).
the weightlessness actually felt quite good and there seemed to be less pain afterwards. what a relief!
while i swam, the hubby took care of h at the huge indoor playground within the same complex. so everyone got some exercise :D
think swimming is going to be part of my weekly schedule from now on.

afternote: went swimming again on sunday and did 20 laps with breaks in between each lap. here's the belly in the morning at 11 weeks 3 days (going by the first ultrasound)
