Calmly and regally gestating our beans in a land of obsessive ILs, placenta horticulture, sweary doctors and naked pancake cravings. It's the JS grads thread 23!

[LaLaLaaaa]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 23rd 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 40th 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!

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!

The stats sheet is here

So, roll call below please, viroids!

It's indeed a filly!!!

Dammit

pis you should have run with the crowd on this one!

Awww, an indigofilly!

Hooray!!! Fillyindigo! A little girl baby how lovely :)

Yay, winner! Indigirl!

Ah yes forgot to say congrats and welcome to the pink team grab a seat and I'll pour you a virgin GnT!

Nowt going on in my pants again

Well, we've been internetless for a few days, you have been very chatty! Well done Lauren! 5lbs is a very good weight, hope you dont have to stay in long.

I feel like a whale, and ive got 13+5 days ish to go. I do hope she isn't going to be as big as her brother(9lb3oz)

Will post a bump when i figure out how to do it!

Looks big eeek!

Thanks ladies! I'm excited I thought I wanted a boy but now I know she's a girl I'm pretty chuffed!

Wonder how lauren is getting on?

*13+5 weeks not days! Heck not only am I big but I can't count.

Wow congrats lauren! How are you feeling? Hope you can get to see him soon and get some cuddles. Have they given you any indication of how long you both will have to stay in?

Congrats indigo! Welcome to team pink!

You look very neat for 27 weeks Cym!

I think you look amazing cym! Really neat bump :)

Can't wait to see pics of new grads baby

Just been through the 5 bags of mat clothes and baby clothes my friend gave me. So adorable!

Congrats Lauren, amazing news and congrats too on the girly news Indigo. Exciting!

Awww congratulations Lauren. Glad all ok and love the name hope you get to see him soon

Oooh exciting girliness Indigo too

La I was also confused about all the Angelcare monitors. I don't know if they work under Moses basket mattresses which is what I need due to extra risks to babies of diabetics.

I want a video monitor that works on wifi, plus a movement one too

Gosh are you all having a lie in?

I'm wondering at what point I need one of those huge pillows. I was in a hotel room last night but couldn't get comfortable. I'm not sure I could carry one around with me though. Wonder if there are ones that pack small

In other news I'm trying not to stress about Harmony results. We should get them by Friday

Happy Monday viroids

I'm here! Running around madly coz got to pick cats up before work.

Dream genii comes in little bag - I took it to hotel at the weekend. V comfy!

I'm here too, well at work.

I haven't tried to pack the dream genii away again, is it easy la? I don't rate my one anyway, you might have to try it and see how you get on purple. Check eBay!

We won a cot bed on eBay yesterday - yay!

I just typed a mammoth post and the page reloaded and bloody ate all the words :(
Hope everyone's okay, grats on team pink indigo for a moment there I thought we were going to be overrun with willies! ;)
I'm feeling a bit off this morning. Didn't sleep very well, combination of some terribkly sad news about a friend yesterday, bit of a peculiar tummy, and I'm flapping about my consultant appointment which is on Wednesday. I seem to have completely lost my assertiveness and rationale, I really don't know what to expect, what to ask etc, and I've got to go on my own as my mum is babysitting DN and Mr Tee is at the wrong end of the country with work. I've also got to decide if I should attempt work next week or just bite the bullet and bring my ML forward by 6 weeks, which is a bit of a financial suck, but I don't know if I want to risk feeling crippled and getting signed off again. I'm only entitled to another week (after this one) on full pay for sick and without sounding mercenary I want to try and keep my salary at normal rate for as long as I can. I guess I can ask the consultant on her view?
I think it's just going to be one of those days where the smallest thing is going to render me a snivelling wreck. Joy!
hope you're doing okay lauren and you've been able to have a little cuddle.

urgh feeling stressed. Consultant I saw last week who doesn't want me to have C-Section said have a think, come back in 2 weeks and we'll discuss again. Of course now I can't seem to book an appointment, they keep saying it's full and to call back when more appointments are released and then i can't even get through on the phone. Not filling me with confidence about the birth whichever way it goes.

In other news my normally quite cool and independent cat has become incredibly clingy and cuddly recently. Anyone else's felines acting weird. It's like he knows he's gonna be usurped for the second time in a couple of months.

Lauren hope you're wee one is doing well and you are recovering ok.
Whoever asked about bio-oil before, yes I like it though tbh I'm not sure anything is really gonna touch these mega-stretch-marked boobs!

Morning! How's the newest grad doing Lauren?

Well done on the cot win Dulcet - that's one of my jobs this month before I'm too tubby to do it - rebuild our cot from it's current position of bed/dumping ground for age 2-3 clothes

Tee write things down now, as you think of them. Hope your friend is ok, it really sets my mood off when I hear bad news in that way.

Congrats on your filly, Indigo :)

MiniChat moved a lot last night! Is now completely transverse - DH couldn't believe how long s/he is when wriggling inside, kicks and punches at both sides of my bump, very weird :)

Splodge this is ridiculous with your consultant. How many weeks are you?

Yay for team pink indigo Isaac is doing well, they're on about reducing his CPAP today and anti biotics finish tomorrow. I'm expressing but can't get enough to be exclusive so feel a bit of a failure. Apparently my milk will come in soon though so I should be able to make more then!

Ill get online not on my app to post a photo today and have a proper catch up!
