Should not be a pbm: You are describing the life of a good portion of the pregnant population. This doesn't seem to have any negative effect on them & shouldn't on you. It is important for you to get up occasionally, stretch out & walk around, but that applies to the population as a whole anytime they have a sedentary job.
