Hop aboard the good ship JS Grads for it's sweet 16th pregnancy party. Don your party hats, grab a bouncy ball and quaff copious amounts of raspberry leaf to celebrate our coming of age!

[Minion]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 16th 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 33rd 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!

Age - 31
DC - currently incubating a wiggly one at 12+4

mountain hope everything is okay, have all my fingers and toes crossed xx

Saw tiny tee this morning - (s)he is a wriggler.. :)

[mountaingirl01]

Bleeding turned red but seems to have slowed (gx) getting pretty bad af style cramps. Feel like howling

[KatoPotato]

Mountain huge hugs and gx. I can't imagine how horrid you feel but I definitly had brown bleeding around 6 weeks or so and all was fine.

Could, gx to you too, I had my 'options' chat with consultant, and she gave me some leaflet with stats and risks for both and I'm to go back at 32 weeks for another chat, where I will still be sticking to my guns! The sheet she gave me said 25% of VBACS end up in an EMCS anyway? I refuse to even entertain that route, but they have to evidence that they've told us all the options and risks involved, so we can;t turn around and say we assumed we had to have a section again?

[laurenamium]

Oh mountain I hope everything's okay for you! I had lots of red blood at 6 weeks and it turned out to be okay!

Stats: laurenamium
Cooking DC2, 18 + 2 weeks and the size of a sweet potato
Due 25th April

[laurenamium]

Oh mini we are due the same day so yours is a sweet potato too!

[minimooo]

Ah yes a sweet potato - that's right! I knew I'd read it somewhere but couldn't remember. Thx lauren

Thinking about it, I might be due 24th April...(i'm 18+3 today) I'm having total memory failure today!
I wonder if that can get me out of working for the rest of the day...

Also, this is a bit but I've got really itchy nipples! Is this normal?

Any news mountain?

[mountaingirl01]

Red and clotty. Trying to contact epu now :(

[BothersomeB]

Oh Mountain - thinking of you.
xxx

[minimooo]

Oh mountain so sorry you're going through such a scary time. Hope you can get seen soon. Thinking of you and keeping everything tightly crossed for you xx

[laurenamium]

I thought you were the day before me mini I think you're due 24th

I have a prospective parent and child coming to look around in 20 minutes, they would be ideal if I can get them as the hours I already work and they only need child care until my maternity leave starts! With this is mind DD is saving 4 dead woodlice to show her new friend I've just had to ask her to take them off my bed I hope this new family like weird...

[Leela5]

Oh mountain I'm keeping everything crossed for you. So worrying :( let us know how you are. We are here for you xxx

[Leela5]

lauren she sounds adorable

[DulcetMoans]

So sorry I missed your panic mountain in my effort to not join the new thread until old one is full but I so hope you are ok. At this stage you just don't know what is happening but hopefully EPU can make room for you this afternoon and get some answers. As the others said, blood isn't always the end. Have you got some RL support?

Name: Dulcetmoans
Age: 29
DC: none but cooking at 7+4 today. Keeping cautiously optimistic following previous MCs. No fruit/veg based comparisons as I have not downloaded any apps! Sure its tiny though.

[wilmabedrock]

Your DD sounds brilliant Lauren .

Mountain, I'm so sorry. Can you take the afternoon off? I know it's hard in your job but don't struggle on in pain. Thinking of you

[wilmabedrock]

Name: Wil
Age: 35
DCs: 1 crazy toddler and according to the ridiculousness of babycenter - 1 large jicama....

[RPopz]

Still crossing everything for you mountain xxx

Carrying on from last Fred... sorry Dulce I can highly recommend salt and vinegar based snacks and lemonade for the reduction of vommyness

Teeth brushing always got me too La

[RPopz]

What the frig is a jicama??

[wilmabedrock]

A mexican yam apparently.... Sounds like a good comparison to use

[TheBooMonster]

Oh blimey mountain fingers crossed it's a random bleed and everything's ok!

tee continuing on from the last fred, you totally do need a travel system, and your MiL shouldn't be dictating what nursery stuff you'll be having (even if she's sweet enough to be paying for it) I think your best bet would be to bite the bullet and go and look at some stuff, then tell her which set you like and give her all the pro's of it vs all the cons of the set she's found (i.e. it's expensive and you won't even use half the stuff that's going to be using up precious nursery space!) perhaps she's only made the decision 'for' you because she thinks it's taking a load off your mind...

my stats:
Age: 25
DC: DD 2 years, bump 20 weeks.

[Minion]

Oh darling mountain, thinking of you xx

[laurenamium]

Thinking of you mountain

Got the new parent and child starts next week, which means that's my night sorted tonight doing the paperwork for it! Why is 1 bag of hula hoops never enough??

[Leela5]

Just threw up my coffee.

So apparently coffee makes me vom

[Pisghetti]

Mountain keeping everything crossed for you and I hope you have some support with you right now x

Being pregnant makes you vom La the coffee was just an innocent bystander!

Well done Lauren! I have some aldi-quaver type knock offs under my desk. I'm down two bags today already and things aren't looking good for number three!

Jicama? Mexican yam? WTAF? Looks like a turnip to me. What do you call turnips in Scotland? My SIL refers to a swede as a turnip so always wondered what she calls a turnip..... I may have too much wondering time on my hands

[Leela5]

Hope you're ok mountain

Just inhaled a double choc chip cookie. Yum.

Well done lauren!

[ZylaB]
