Well, over Thanksgiving weekend I decided it was probably time to retire my basketball shoes for a while. I've been struggling with sciatica quite a bit, and it culminated to the point that I was having a hard time even walking... so, I've changed things up a bit. Now, instead of basketball and running, I'm doing yoga and swimming.
I called up a friend and asked her to be my swimming buddy, thus ensuring that I actually go when I plan to go. So far, it has been absolutely wonderful! I feel like swimming is one thing I can actually do without really feeling pregnant. I feel weightless and normal again. I love it! I can actually push myself when I swim without much prego-effect.
So, even though I haven't been able to run the entire pregnancy, I'm happy to report that I'm still staying active... which was my biggest goal when we decided to have another baby.

way to go!!!! staying active while being pregnant is so hard, but I am proud of you! Swimming is nice since it relieves a lot of the pressure.
