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!

Hi lemon!

Add yourself to the stats not obsessed at all! - woohoo, congratulations!

Twingey is normal, as is being a paranoid wreck about being twingey

Will look up cellular blankets.

I'm so proud - am working from home and have done 3 loads of washing so far - currently washing garden chair covers after three days of them sitting in bleach. Can anyone say.....'nesting'!!

Hey lemon congrats and welcome! Twinges are normal, womble stretching etc. unfortunately a lot of early pg symptoms are the same as AF symptoms, try not to panic :)

Hi lemon congratulations!

Wooo lemon
Tiny gentle hooyah. And whatever you do, don't think you will somehow push your poppyseed out if you poo too hard. (Bitter, bitter, constipated experience)

Hey Lemon! Pretty much anything that inspires wobbles is 'normal'

You'll all be sorry when I'm overdue, miserable and moany! DP is currently too dusty to shag so I'll jump him after Daisy class. It'll look a little like this....

Hi lemon
I had opal fruits for breakfast. Beat that.

tee 8 weeks in I'm only just starting to believe that I probably can't poo out my baby

mmmm Opal fruits. Well done Gaggia. None of your Starburst pish.

The holes in the blankets aren't big enough for fingers whoever asked the question.

Haha pis!

Welcome lemon and congrats!

la mothercare do some reasonably priced cellular blankets (one size for moses basket, then bigger ones for cot if I remember rightly). They're just plain colours, but they're the cheapest ones I've found yet.

Glad to hear you're resting up lauren.

Am off to my scan in a bit to see if placenta has moved out of the way (was too close to cervix at 20-week scan). They said it would be dildo-cam so had to have a tidy up of the lady garden this morning. Not easy using mirror, razor and scissors...very very carefully....

wil I might have a marathon later too! These modern confection names can do one!

Good luck mini!

Good luck Mini

Welcome Lemon and congratulations!

Ah don't tease me with your marathon, I'm off chocolate.

Lol pis

Welcome lemon and hooya! Get used to the weird and wonderful over the next few weeks.

Twingy - check! I felt like that for several weeks, especially if I walked a long way or attempted to run

Today you are pregnant

I have had 3 celebration sized snickers marathons today. I think my love affair with chocolate might be back on

STILL think I'm going to poo the baby out!

Good luck mini!

I'm just about to do an interview with a national newspaper. Am waiting on a couch being delivered and my lunch is nearly ready. Sod's law says couch will arrive just as they phone to do interview and I'll have a gob full of baked potato.

I had pic n mix for breakfast yesterday and Roses and Pringles for dinner

Too dusty to shag pis?? Say what!?

Congratulations Lemon

Lemon! Yay! FWIW I have been very twingey as well, and was with my first pg - pretty sure it's normal.

Sorry guys, I came in on the last thread and everyone was lovely and then I went silent again. I am lurking but keep fretting that I'm going to have another CP so trying not to become too certain that my sesame seed is going to be an actual real baby. I'm 5+2 and still pissing on sticks to make sure!

Hugs
la not the daily fail I hope!

(decaf of course) gliding - gx for your little bean

gaggia ha! No - although they actually write some nice articles about us and have done a great one following an interview I did before.

It was The (F)un! Just done it - went well, but we'll see what ends up in print as it's often completely different! :)

I have problems with the daily fail, I really like their pull out quiz/puzzle page, but I don't read the paper lol.

I generally hate them because they have an agenda against us, but it's bizarre because sometimes they'll write some lovely articles about us too!

Ooh La when will you be in?? You're like our celeb friend

Nah it'll be like 2 lines and I'll be 'spokesperson'. Hardly ever get named but I'll send you link if I do!

I've been waiting in all day for my new couch - ordered end of November 'to take 12 weeks'. 12 weeks my arse.

due for delivery today 'between 7am and 7pm'. Wow...could you be any more specific? Now 4 hours from end of window - WHERE'S MY FUCKING COUCH YOU BASTARDS!!!!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! I've been sitting on the floor for the past two days. Fine, until I need to get up (crane needed)
