Just Shagging Grads Fred 8! Roll up, roll up, all Viroids welcome!

[HumptyDumptyBumpty]

Just Shagging Grads, here is your shiny new Fred!

For those that don't know, a 'viroid' is from the original JSing thread 1, where someone was trying to type ladies (in reference to all the JSing ladies), but their phone decided to call us all viroids instead!

The name stuck and we've been the JSing viroids ever since.

The last thread saw plenty of births and we've got loads of new Grads to add to the mix. Bring on the TMI posts, the midnight moans, the birthwatches and the pom poms!

Our stats thread is here, so if you find us, please add your stats too.

There is also a Just Mumming thread for grads of the grads thread

And if you want to find out what Just Shagging is about or catch up with the undergrads go say hello to the Just Shaggers here, now on the 17th thread.

Cookie how did the scan go?

Blondies good luck! So exciting! I can imagine it would be strange not to have a good memory of your baby's birth, glad no 2 was more positive and no 3 hopefully even better!

Hello ladies. Just wanted to let you know the scan showed the baby died at 8+ weeks so I will be leaving you all. Good luck with all your future babies!

So so sorry Cookie I know a few of us have gone through it in the past so if u need any support or have any questions do ask (I had a mmc last june then fell pg with this one in jan)

Oh cookie so so sorry. Lots of love xxx

So sorry to hear that cookie. My thoughts are with you .

So sorry cookie, echoing what blondies said, I had the same thing last October and got pg with Huxley 2 months later. It does and will get better, thinking of you.

cookie I'm so so sorry to hear that, you poor love. Take good care of yourself, and look forward to having you back here very soon. Lots of love xx

Have already said on another Fred, but gutted to hear your news Cookie, hope to have you back with us soon

Cookie....so sorry for you....xxxx

Morning How is everyone? Told the inlaws about being upduffed yesterday - my MIL cried!! Only 11 more days til 12 week scan, can't wait to get it out of the way and stop worrying.

Hi Nessa glad your inlaws were so happy, it doesn't seem that long ago I was waiting for our 12 week scan, now I'm counting down to due date

37+1 baby still very wriggly, one minute bump is low then it moves all up and out front again, so I don't think it's imminent, although still pausing at every twinge and ache

I've been waiting patiently and finally my 12 week scan is tomorrow! My moods have been worse this week, especially when I get tired. Still, I've got a 4 day weekend starting now, yay!

Good luck for your scan roodles

Hope all goes well Roodles! I've got a four day weekend too, once I've got thru Saturday morning at least!

Hope your scan went well roodles and hope yours goes well, nessa.

God, had such an emotional fortnight. I must be empty of weeping now, surely?

Hi all! Back from my long weekend and returned to the real world now. Scan was amazing - I can't get over how much detail we could see! Confirmed that there is only one in there and it's got a heartbeat, so we're happy with that.

The only slightly worrying thing is that the baby is already sized at 13 weeks, despite only being 12 weeks. Does this mean I'm going to have a mega-baby??

Great news on your scan Roodles! I was also dated a week ahead, as was my friend, so I don't think it's anything too out of the ordinary

Nessa is your scan next? Fx

I'm enjoying 14+ weeks! No more nausea and my first maternity shopping trip (after being told I looked 'huge' in trousers 2 sizes too big - upsizing just doesn't work!!). Feeling snazzy in my Simon Cowell trews!

Thanks for the reassurance PrincessKitKat - they said it was normal for it to move by a couple of days, but a week is more than a couple of days!

Where did you buy your maternity clothes from? I looked around and couldn't find any physical shops that stocked maternity clothes, so ended up buying some leggings, jeggings and long top/dresses. All nice and stretchy.

I got an amazingly comfy pair of work trousers & some skinny jeans both from red herring at Debenhams. They've got some nice tops & jumpers too but I really don't want to spend a lot on things I'll only wear for a few months.

I've got a few Next bits off eBay but the tops make me look huge, so they're in reserve!

roodles I was dated a week on at my first scan too - it should mean they move your EDD back.

Maternity clothes - ASOS are really good, next (eBay) are good, some Mamas and Papas stuff is nice (and you can try on in store for once).
Generally, expect to have to plan ahead about 3 weeks from when you want to wear something - you have to order, return, try different size, return that and repeat! H&M are APPALLING - they ship their maternity wear (by BOAT) from Sweden. Four weeks on, I am still waiting for a fecking pair of leggings.

How's everyone doing?

Hi everyone,

I don't know if anyone will remember me (was Kateepie back then) but I had my LO a couple of years ago and was on the viroids threads back then.

I had an early mc in August (6 weeks), and got a strong bfp 3 days early this week, am 4 weeks exactly today

Can I join in please?

Welcome back Mightily! And congratulations!
