swimming

I'll be 33 Weeks tomorrow and wondering if anyone else did swimming as exercise during the third trimester till due date. I did some research and keep getting mixed answers. One is good for both mom and baby. Two no because you won't know if your water breaks. So confused. Any suggestions ?

My swim instructor told me it's almost impossible for your water to break while in the pool since the pressure of the pool water counteracts with your water bag. I was really worried at first but swimming is amazing! You feel weightless and super relaxed :) just don't go swimming after your water breaks because that can cause infection.
