JS viroids are here in their 28th outing complete with exploding belly buttons. There's royal foofs and jiffy bag gifts, but most certainly NOT x-rated colouring books at the VAGINA party HQ!

[ChatEnOeuf]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 28th 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 46th 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!

Here is the stats list, please update your own spot with any updates: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oLJqpadAb2givKYq8OJfGCti3s6xzsTGlI-GoaBfM_M/edit?pli=1#gid=0

niff i've kind of impossed a ban on shagging in this house for the next few weeks, at least until our 6 week scan.

feel better soon la :( how long are you working until?

Til 5 today but I was late starting so should probably work late.

Baby is definitely heading downwards - I was squatting last night to plug in the fan and there was definitely something pushing on my cervix. Had visions of baby popping out like a cork!

Does this mean the baby's head is engaged?

Oh speaking of scans us viroids need to see them so if anyone wants to join the very private, by invitation only grads facebook group please pm I think la or chat I think can do it too. Then you can see the bump gallery too!

Ooh la engaged head is good, I hope so.

Sooo. I asked Dh to fix the towel warmer thing in the bathroom. (Its been hanging off the wall for months) he went up with his tools, good. Gat called up to see something, he has accidentaly taken the paint off the wall.... So the bathroom needs re painting (we only did it about 2 yrs ago). Im not sure if im angry or not.
In other news, may have started to lose my mucus plug. Not sure, havent noticed it before, all 4 pregnancies have been so different, and so far all 3 births have been different.

Oo a grads FB group! I think i'll maybe request a join after the 6 week scan :)

Good luck cym :)

Yeahhh viroids holiday, come visit! I do have some brilliant friends here so don't feel too sorry for me, would just be nice to have other preggo friends that will have newborns when I do. I have a couple of friends with babies already though so that will have to do. Have booked antenatal classes for August so hopefully might meet some nice people there.

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well la - take it easy!

My money's on cym for this week....!

Any advances on bets?

Just had a nice wee message from MNHQ saying sorry for not replying earlier but they've been on and are looking at the mean thread.

I think tee will get there first!

It's really handy having a former midwife in our July baby group - I just posted on FB about my 'laying an egg' sensation and she talked me through how to feel where the baby is lying inside me. It's really interesting!

What's people views on baths? Dr Google is saying not to have it too hot, have you ladies stuck to cool baths for the whole pregnancy?

Thanks La I really think people should stop this picking at thread titles. It's not like it can honestly affect their day-to-day life that much. Hope you're feeling better this afternoon. At least you're at home I guess.

My money's on Tee, now Mr Tee acknowledges that things may be soon.

Jelly I do wonder what goes through some people's minds before they speak - obviously nothing in some cases! Glad they were happy after :) Weird pregnancy dreams are odd - I dreamt DH kicked me out for some inconsequential stuff...I was really annoyed with him until I remembered it was just a dream. Might have been several hours later

Going for a look around NICU tomorrow before my appt - hope it won't be needed but I'd rather be that way prepared and have met the team first.

Speaking of weird dreams: last night I dreamt that my DH came up to me with tears in his eyes, asking me please not to laugh and in a very shaky voice telling me he'd pissed himself... What the hell is that all about?

Had you wet yourself fatty?! That's the sort of dream I would expect to lead to actual wet beds. My dream was a bit biblical last night and included a dog called Balthazar.

I can't understand why it's our threads over anything else that get picked - there's one in active called 'AIBU to find this fucking offensive' and 'fucking sweary thread' so why is ours any different? I want to defend it but I also want that one to die so don't want to keep reviving.

It's good you are getting to see it chat but a bit overwhelming I bet. Do you get to ask any questions?

Hope you are feeling better la. You can finish shortly. Do you work in your pants at least? Best part of working from home.

Don't really have baths jelly but think it's body temperature tops?

I'll bet on cym. What do we win? Is it just respect?

Nope, not wetted myself. Also, my DH doesn't do tears. The only time I've seen tears in his eyes was at our wedding!

Also, I am indeed a fat cow. I stepped on the scales today for the first time in months. Turns out I've gained about 25 kilo...

jelly 37 degrees is the limit and I found that was too cold so I've not had a bath this whole pregnancy until last week when I was just so sore I felt it was needed!

I'm absolutely over that shitty thread. One of the people posted that she'd had a horrible time ttc and I wrote her a supportive nice post. She's just blatantly ignored this and is still banging on about how nasty we all are and how everyone's just responded with nastiness. I even pointed out that I'd written her a nice supportive post, but she's ignored it.

I also PM'd the OP to give her help with her son's worms - she didn't even say thank you, even though she asked me questions about what to do and I gave her information.

Fuck 'em. I'm over stupid mouthy keyboard-warrior bitches who sit behind their keyboards and act all offended and holier than thou because of the words 'vagina', 'jizz' and 'erection'. At some point they have all masturbated, they've probably all given their dp oral sex and at some point who knows, they might even have taken it up the arse. But here on a forum - oh no, the word 'jizz' is too offensive.

I tell you what's offensive - ugliness on the inside. Cattiness. Bitchiness. Bullying. Racism. Homophobic people. That's proper offensive. Jizz is something that comes out of a penis and either creates babies or a mess on the carpet (or in your face). What do they want us to call it instead - spunk?

And yes mother fuckers - continually posting from a group of people about how awful people are when they've done nothing wrong is fucking BULLYING. Also known as TROLLING. Also known as 'being a cunt'.

It makes me :( and remember why I prefer non-human animals to people.

I hear you on the weird dreams front.

I dreamt I slept with Will from the Good Wife - proper steamy torrid affair. I've had dreams so realistic I wake up completely confused.

chat let's hope you don't need to visit NICU but hopefully it makes you feel better to have seen it.

fatty I'm around that too - telling myself it's all for the good of the baby and I'll lose it afterwards!

Ooh La, have a brew pet . Don't let pearl clutches raise your blood pressure, not worth it. for you too.

Done, pud, I'll have a Yorkshire Tea and that'll do nicely

In my case it is a lot of fluids as well, so I'm hoping I can shift that quickly once the little one is here!

ha, it's alright cym you can go first!! It's all quiet on the labour front here. Might try and get laid later, see if it does anything....also I've requested that tiny tee turns up in nice weather so I can wear a maxi dress home, and it looks a bit shite all week, so I think I'm in the clear. ;)

Hope you feel better la- without being the bearer of bad news, I started to feel first trim shattered around that time... Naps are your friend.. Man I wish it was as easy as laying an egg! Then you could pop it in the airing cupboard for a few months to incubate and then boom! Hatchling miniLa!

jelly I don't really like tepid baths, so I carried on with having mine hot, MW said you'd have to lay in it and for it to retain its heat (which they don't) for a couple of hrs before it'd affect your temperature. (This is why hot tubs aren't recommended as they don't change temperature) she also said the biggest concern is flaking when you get out and doing yourself a mischief, so I very rarely got in unless Mr Tee was home. I don't have the choice now, I can't get out without help! But I've found baths amazing all pregnancy, bliss!

Oh god, preg dreams are just bonkers, I had the most disturbing one the night before I got my bfp, it was so scary I actually posted about how freaked I was on FB. They are really vivid, although I think I lucked out with the sexy ones, only had a few, the rest have just been bizarre, and chat I have done the same too, had a dream Mr tee didn't want to have a baby anymore and I was furious with him for almost a whole day but couldn't admit why. Oops.

Lost all motivation to do anything aside from dick around on my iPad. There are three, yes three baskets of washing that need ironing and putting away, but I just cannot, cannot be fucked. Also have some kind of food to do for dinner, but really I might just have crisps and salami instead. I am knackered!

Can anyone tell me where the hell to start with baby clothes? For a start there seems to be sod all choice for unisex which is annoying - and also i have no idea what we need and don't. For example long sleeved babygros - are they annoying for babies so better to have sleeveless? Or OK? And would the long legged and long sleeved ones be too warm? It's warm here so I don't really need warm stuff. What do they sleep in? Do we need sleeping bags or are they for when they're a bit bigger?

And what size clothes? I know it depends on what size baby comes out but I'm just getting a bit baffled by the whole thing! Don't want to buy loads of random stuff just because it's cute and then find that it's all a bit useless.

Aww la breathe deeply and don't let those tossers get to you. Sticks and stones and all that jazz, they are just huge knobs. Next time someone starts a thread trying to bully us we should just request MNHQ sort it out, we don't deserve this level of bullying.

tee I was going to just have a bag of nuts for dinner but DP made me have a proper meal lol.

Thanks for the bath info, I might just stick to showers for the next 8 weeks at least.

I've had to self refer to a MW but they've not phoned me back yet, how long did it take for you MW's to call back if u self referred?
