Just Shagging 12th Thread for graduated viroids

999 replies

FurryScoob · 16/09/2014 16:51

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 11th grads thread...celebrating the success of Just Shagging in getting us viroids upduffed grin

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 thread we have graduated from is here in its 27th outing.

There is also a Just Mumming thread in postnatal here once your babies come along, or to keep up with the graduated graduates!

There is also a secret facebook group, if you want to join, ask in-thread.

So, roll call below please, viroids! smile

Good luck lauren, hope it goes well!

My 12 week scan is on Friday - eep! Came around quickly in the end, but I think this week's gonna drag!

minimooo · 20/09/2014 10:25

Blimey la that's early in the morning to be out and about!

Good luck lauren let us know how you get on today

laurenamium · 20/09/2014 12:49

Thanks everyone Grin the scan was great! Put me at 9 weeks which is impossible as I hadn't even had my period 9 weeks ago! So I'm just assuming its a bit big! It had arms and legs and a heartbeat and was wiggling! The sonographer couldn't get a good picture so used the internal one which was a bit uncomfortable but worth it! Grin

I was expecting just a little still bean with a heart beat not an actual baby! So I'm very pleased Grin

minimooo · 20/09/2014 13:05

That's brilliant lauren! Must have been amazing to see Smile

couldbeanyone · 20/09/2014 13:28

Great lauren, it's a relief to see there is something in there isn't it!

RPopz · 20/09/2014 14:11

Great news. How many weeks did you think you were Lauren?

RPopz · 20/09/2014 15:24

ARG. Are all men totally fucking inept or is it just mine?

couldbeanyone · 20/09/2014 15:25

Drinking bucketful of peppermint tea to relieve trapped wind, or as DD put it, "a farty tummy". I've brought her up so well. I'd forgotten all these joyous symptoms.

couldbeanyone · 20/09/2014 15:25

Rpoz no all of them. GrinGrin

RPopz · 20/09/2014 15:29

Oh God I need chocolate!

laurenamium · 20/09/2014 16:20

What's mrpopz done now? Grin

I thought I was 8+5, midwife put me at 8+4 and the scan put me at 9 to the day! Only a few days either way but interesting how much it varies even when you know when you dtd!

Minion · 20/09/2014 16:37

What's he done popz? Don't tell me he's forgotten to buy chocolate? That's an instant ground for divorce speaking from experience

Oh gals. It's finally happened.
I've got stretch marks. On my tum. Which I suppose is better than on my tits, but I'm giving them time. At the rate my boobs and belly expanding I can expect to resemble violet beauregard in a month or so. All purple and round.

Sympathies please.

Lauren so exciting for you. It's such a joy seeing the bean on the screen, and it makes you feel less like you've imagined it all

Leela5 · 20/09/2014 17:10

Mmmm...chocolate!

Popz what did he do now?

lauren that's so exciting! Must have been wonderful! Do you mind me asking how much you paid for it? I was considering it - it's £99 at my local place. I'm such a worrier it would be worth the money.

Hi horace! We are a gassy bunch both chatty and from the bum!

I'm knackered just done day at a trade show and now lying in hotel room chilling before dinner. Was great day though.

Sympathy for you min can you at least make them into an interesting pattern through joining up with pen? Sorry - ill advised humour...trying to make light of stretch marks is probably a crap idea. I've got them on my bum from when I lost my mega chub. Bio oil is the best defence x

I am going to have to hide my lack of boozing from colleagues tonight. Not sure how I'm going to do it.

RPopz · 20/09/2014 17:20

Haha, he's just being a useless arse as usual. We're going to a wedding abroad next weekend and he left it til last night to phone to dog sitter (despite me asking him ages ago)... so lo and behold she's fully booked and we have to put him in kennels instead... which he's booked without checking the dates the dog's boosters are due, he can't go in kennels without them... They were due a week ago apparently! So have had to make an emergency vets app for Monday to get them done.... I'm just like FFS do I have to organise/ think about/ remind/ nag you about EVERYTHING! Angry God help this child.

Boo to stretch marks Min Sad Cocoa butter ftw - and they do fade Thanks I haven't got any so far but not going to pat myself on the back just yet! I got tonnes in puberty.

Most people I know who've had them have paid between 50 and 100 La And mocktails??? Wink

Ooh not too far off then Lauren! Seeing a heartbeat past 8 weeks is supposed to be a great sign Grin x

Leela5 · 20/09/2014 17:35

Oh god popz he sounds like mine I totally sympathise. They moan you don't trust them to do something but when you do ask them to do something they do it wrong, half arsed or last minute. Any other pet sitters around?

laurenamium · 20/09/2014 17:50

Aw min Thanks for stretch marks! I'm covered in them from having DD and being a chub so won't even notice new ones this time around. They are awful though, tiger stripes to show you're bad ass enough to grow a baby Wink

La I paid £99 for mine and it was absolutely worth it! I paid £30 when I booked it a few weeks ago and the rest on the day so it didn't feel as much as the cost was spread. I got 5 photos too with that! I had took money expecting to pay for photos but they were included in the price! Grin

RPopz · 20/09/2014 17:52

Exactly La! Here's hoping they step up when the mini ones arrive!

It's sorted now thankfully. The dog sitters daughter runs a kennel and she's happy to have him as long as he gets his booster on Monday. I'm pretty sure vaccinations don't expire after precisely one year, but rules are rules.... I don't particularly like using kennels as he's such a people dog but hey ho. Only for a couple of nights thankfully Confused

gaggiagirl · 20/09/2014 18:45

la please fear not for the lack of morning puke. I didn't get it with DD I know loads of people who have had symptom free first trimesters.

I haven't bothered telling the Drs I'm pg yet. The midwives won't entertain you until you're 8 weeks in these parts so I'm in no rush. I'm doubting myself a bit now though.

laurenamium · 20/09/2014 19:44

I worried about lack of sick too la which is why I ended up booking the early scan. It's came with a vengeance this last week or two!

Nessalina · 20/09/2014 20:35

Menfolk really can be muppets sometimes Grin I have to give my DH credit, he's been brilliant lately, but he used to be such a pillock when it came to sorting out anything practical. I do all the paperwork and finance stuff in the house, bank accounts, savings, insurances, bills, etc etc. The only thing he ever has to do is his own car, so tax & insurance. Two years in a row he took out new insurance policies and forgot to cancel the old ones Confused You had ONE job Grin Oh, and then there was the time he accidentally declared his car off-road whilst trying to tax it online... But he gets very tetchy when I mention that Grin

Nessalina · 20/09/2014 20:36

Min - I feel your pain! Damn the stretch marks!! ThanksThanksThanks

JuniDD · 20/09/2014 20:39

hello, congrats on the lovely scan lauren.
We've gone for a red pram. Smile

First day of a weekend marathon NCT today. I hadn't realised quite how much research I had absorbed! One lady didn't know how far along she was...which seemed a bit laid back to me. Not sure I've got the energy for tomorrow but hey ho, at least I'm lucky enough to not have to go to work on Monday.

We may be attempting perineal massage later... Shock. Not sure I can go through with it!!!

RPopz · 20/09/2014 21:25

Hahahahah Juni!!! Enjoy!

Yes I'll totally be laughing on the other side of my face in a couple of months time Wink

Leela5 · 20/09/2014 21:58

Wtf is perineal massage!?!

RPopz · 20/09/2014 22:05

Its even worse than it sounds La .... Shock
