Just Shagging Grads 14: Join the viroids for scanxiety, Toni Braxtons, & a little less JSing than usual!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 14th grads thread... celebrating the success of Just Shagging in getting us viroids upduffed!

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 29th outing. WARNING: they're all a bit kerazy not to mention randy!

There is also a Just Mumming thread in postnatal clubs here for once your babies come along, or to keep up with the graduated graduates! It's a bit quiet at the moment, but with all these upduffed viroids hopefully it won't be for long!

There is also a private facebook group (so it doesn't give the game away in your news feed!)... if you want to join to see photos of new babies etc, just ask in-thread!

So, roll call below please, viroids!

Yup you've invoked Law of Sod there Ness! I've got in there early with the LOS by getting tickets for the Wales v Ireland six nations game a week before I'm due.

Happy birthday Horace!

Nessalina · 05/11/2014 10:11

Furry - me too! That's the only issue with firework tonite - no coat! It's been so warm lately I've refused to buy a mat coat, but the temp's dropped about 10 degrees here Confused Time for many layers Grin

Enjoy the fireworks tonight ness!

Good job on the pram pis Fab that you'll have some extra cash left over too.

I've got a little tiny bump forming! Grin I was getting so worried that nothing was happening, but feel much happier now. I also think I've felt a couple of really light movements too in the last couple of days. So exciting! though I can imagine the excitement might wear off in a few months when it all becomes uncomfortable

Such good news about la! Hope she feels ok and comes over to join us soon.

And big welcome hugs to all the newbies! Smile

I've got the rage again. Asked DH to clean the kitchen floor this morning before he went to work. Kitchen is meant to be his thing. I do EVERYTHING else. He's meant to do it everyday - esp today in light of my flea paranoia!! Has he done it? Has he buggery Angry

RPopz · 05/11/2014 11:00

Happy birthday Horace!! Thanks Wine

Nessalina · 05/11/2014 11:16

shakes fist at Mr Rpopz Angry

What a pain! Don't give in to the rage, just have a quiet word when he gets in. Don't let him get away with it!

Baby Ness is stressing me out. He's always super lazy movement wise in the mornings, but I still start worrying when he's not moving much Confused Being quiet in the morning is definitely 'normal' for him, but if quiet is normal how can I tell if his movements have reduced??

Happy birthday horace

I had the rage over the weekend too, had a go at DH for not organising people helping to move some heavy stuff out of the nursery, then cried and went to sulk in the bedroom, came out and he'd organised it. Feel bad for going ott about it, but it worked!!

ness if mornings are quiet, that's normal! No stressing for you lady, you've got a firework display to watch, or a baby to push out depending ;)

RPopz · 05/11/2014 12:05

Apparently he did do it... Hmm Exceptionally badly then!!

It's just changes from the norm to look for isn't it Ness? So if he's usually quiet in the morning that's fine - if he's quiet in the evening when he's usually boogying then that's when to worry... I'd think! Smile

laurenamium · 05/11/2014 12:28

Happy birthday Horace! Thanks

Haven't read the thread properly but will go back and catch up! Busy day at work today with lots of children coming and going. The days passing really quick though Grin

freshstart4us · 05/11/2014 12:28

Happy birthday Horace!

As RPopz says it's changes from the norm that you're looking for, so but Ness if you are at all unsure, take yourself straight in to get a mw to have a listen. Uncertainly is NOT what you need right now - rest as much as you can, eat lightly and prepare mentally, you've got a marathon to run very soon!

ChatEnOeuf · 05/11/2014 12:35

Happy birthday Horace Cake

Change from normal activity, or any maternal concerns = call the mw and get a check. They shouldn't mind (and if it's quiet they may even offer you a sneaky sweep) and you shouldn't be worrying - get yourself reassured one way or the other.

rm00054 · 05/11/2014 14:03

I never get chance to post much, but always love reading everything (especially when work is being boring).
I'm only 6 weeks along. It goes so slowly! I've got pretty painful boobs and the occasional overwhelming wave of nausea (feels like motion sickness!) I'm drinking a lot more but pooing a lot less My question is, when did everyone's morning sickness kick in? (I am hoping what I've currently got is all I'm going to get I'm deluded I know ).
Also, I'm seeing my mum when I'll be 8weeks, do you reckon that's too early to spill the beans? It's the first gc so I doubt I'll be left alone after she knows!

I keep refreshing the Fred in the hopes Ness has news, my life is boring I need to live through you lot if that's ok.

Happy birthday Horace!

BothersomeB · 05/11/2014 14:19

Hi RM - we're at about the same timing wise...I'm 5+5 and seeing my family at the weekend for my Mum's birthday. We've decided to tell them as when I had an MC last year (7+2), we hadn't told anyone, and it was even harder to give them the news - such a shock for them too. This time, I want their support whatever happens, although that'll make the announcement a bit odd...'I'm pregnant, but don't get too excited, and please just hep us through the anxiety of the next few weeks' is pretty much how it'll go. Also first GC and think my Ma had given up on her 3 daughters aged 41, 40 and 34...rubbish daughters! I reckon if you think it's going to be helpful to you, and if you'd tell her if something bad happened anyway, there's no such thing as 'too soon'...?

I've also been feeling pretty sick since AF was due - from what I've read that really sounds too soon for morning sickness but I most certainly feel it - usually late morning and early evening, but sometimes all day, often bought on by smells (deodorant, dishwashers, bins, and Mr B's potent farts). Also similar to motion sickness (I get car sick quite often - wonder if it's related?). Really hoping it doesn't get worse!

Also finding that time is plodding along soooooo slowly. Argh!

FurryScoob · 05/11/2014 15:10

ness ring midwife if your worried, they were really good with me last week when I hadn't felt movement all afternoon. As soon as they put the monitor thing on me she started having a little rave in there. If you put a large glass of water in the freezer for 1/2 hour & then drink it as fast as you can & lay down it usually makes them move but stay near a toilet, it don't take long to come through!

HungryHorace · 05/11/2014 15:20

Ness, please call straight away if baby is quiet. Contrary to popular belief, they do not go quiet before labour starts. It's really, really important to get checked out with any reduction.

Thank you for the birthday wishes. :-). It's been bloody manic here!

Hope everyone is ok, bar sore boobs and puking etc!

freshstart4us · 05/11/2014 15:27

Hi rim, vicariously living through others is perfectly valid, particularly now we can't have Wine! Wink

I started to feel pretty rough right on the dot of 7+0 both this time and last, so am guessing that's my normal. I don't actually throw up thank goodness, just constant waves of nausea and vertigo. I really bad motion sickness and am ultra-sensitive to smells - getting off the train is a nightmare, as I get off with motion sickness, then emerge into a fog of exhaust fumes, food smells, cigarette smoke and people smells. Extreme example is that I can't even use my make-up at the moment, the fragrance of my compact makes me heave. It lasted until about 13 or 14 weeks with my DD. Lots of stodgy salty food (sausage rolls a fave) and water to wash it all down with is my way through!

freshstart4us · 05/11/2014 15:29

Also as far as telling people early goes - I think Bother has it exactly right, if you would tell the person if something bad happened then there really is no such thing as 'too soon'.

RPopz · 05/11/2014 16:56

Hope all is well Ness x

Can't remember who asked but I started feeling vommy at about 6-7 weeks. Shortly after Mr P telling me he'd read on his pregnancy app that if I didn't have ms by 6 weeks it meant I wasn't going to get it! Hmm Lol.

RPopz · 05/11/2014 16:58

We told parents at 8 weeks Rm - mostly as it fell on a bank holiday and so was a an ideal time to go visiting and tell them all in one fell swoop!! It was a bit scary but I think I would've appreciated their support in either eventuality x

teejayem · 05/11/2014 17:33

I was 7 weeks before the huuuurgh feeling really started. Now 9+6 and I get it in the morning and a bonus evening dose, although I think travelling sets it off in a motion sickness kind of way. (Although it's not something I normally get).
Great news re: La!!!

Nessalina · 05/11/2014 17:47

That's what's so annoying though - he's always quiet in the mornings, so how can I tell if it's 'reduced' movements? If normal is nothing, you can't quantify 'less than nothing'! He's squirming like usual now and will continue to beat me up until bedtime Grin

wilmabedrock · 05/11/2014 18:34

You can't tell Ness, you just have to wait until night time. Everyone has quiet points in the day.

Bloody braxton hicks can f the f off.

That's great news about Lala!

DulcetMoans · 05/11/2014 20:12

I'm on edge for you ness! Are you more excited or scared?!

Less cramping here now, which I guess is good as it was making me worry but now I am worried its stopped! No winning.

DulcetMoans · 05/11/2014 20:14

Forgot to say to chat, bother and anyone else it is relevant to - GP said a third MC is statistically no more likely to happen. Its only after three that the stats start to go up as indicates a problem. Not sure than helps but felt reassuring at the time.
