Toning and losing weight during pregnancy?

lindssaurus

Is it possible to lose weight and tone during pregnancy? I'm 25 weeks and I have gained 26lbs and im afraid I won't be be as mobile and it will too much weight to lose when the baby is born. I've been swimming but not enough. I've mostly gained in the legs and arms. Will trying to lose weight harm the baby? I mostly looking to tone my legs and arms doing weight resistance, walking, elliptical, lunges and squats.
