Talan absolutely loves to be in the water. We go twice a week for about 45 minutes and both James & I participate. I have a cute pregnancy swimsuit that proudly shows off my 28 week & growing belly. Talan will go under the water with no problems. He can hold onto the wall. He is still not swimming with his arms and legs; he just goes along with the songs. On good days he will float on his back but he is usually distracted by the toys, or even the clock on the wall. At the end of the session we play with toys and Talan can't wait until then and so he hollers for his favorite toy, "TRUCK!" Which, then results in him not wanting to lay nicely and float. But he is very comfortable in the water. He doesn't care how you hold him, as long as you keep his head above water long enough to breath and play with a toy. Some of the babies want to be held closely and not bounced around or splashed. We have one more week and then we are going to do another session in August...I don't know if my tummy will still fit in my bathing suit at 35-39 weeks! James was jealous that Talan got swim lessons so James is getting scuba certified next month. What does mommy get? Another baby!! Can't wait...11 more weeks!
