Breathing through the scanxiety, putting all our faith in Jill and fantasising about illicit paddling pools and fanjo fans - it's JS grads thread 32!

[LaLaLaaaa]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 32nd 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 50th outing. WARNING: they're all a bit kerazy not to mention randy!

There is also a Just Mumming thread 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.

I think I need some new bras, I bought 2 in a bigger size weeks ago and they're getting knackered as they're in a constant cycle of wearing and washing - and they're feeling too small again now!

I've just got to that stage bat- bought another 2 last week after the 2 I got around 12/13 weeks have become a bit of a squeeze and are looking a bit tatty. I've gone up not only a back size again but also cup size too this time, woohoo!

Don't know if we got the storm last night- if we did I totally missed it! Sunny and warm this morning, and no real plans for the day. Lovely but tiring day out all day with DH yesterday so do feel I need to take it easy today.

I need to find somewhere that actually gives a decent bra service, last time I went to Debenhams and the woman looked very put out when I asked to be measured even though they had signs up advertising their measuring service - she then measured me over my clothes and the size she told me then didn't fit so I had to figure it out for myself But I have a feeling that if I get a good service somewhere then it's only going to be in an expensive shop and I just want to get some cheap ones! Will Google how to measure I think and get good old mr bat to do it, will be nothing after him having to trim my fanjo

I've got a cropped top type bra for night time, it was cheap in sainsbos, they just need holding in place, nothing more

We had storms overnight, thunder and lightning and a power cut which mean neighbours house alarm was going off for 30 mins at a time and the ceiling fan was off. Ear plugs sorted the noise but we've both had broken sleep. Fortunately it's cooled everything down. I was glad the baby wasn't here to try and get to sleep through it

I once persuaded a friend to get measured, as she was still wearing 36Bs she got as a teenager. She swore they were fine. We practically pushed her in to bravissimo. 32G. Which fitted perfectly.

Ha honey she must have had some serious 4 boob going on!

Bat I think the old ones had stretched go git, they were that old.

Ladies in south east... If you have any plant pots, just check them. I had to pour an inch of water off all of mine!

News from my boobs: I've got boobs! I'm quite excited! Usually a 34b so it's a bit of a novelty... I got some hotmilk bras in the sale honey, they are lovely and comfy and will take some expansion - 6 rows of hooks across the back and stretchy at top of boob. But even my new improved boobs don't really need much support so I wasn't too worried about buying online...

Right viroids, I'm off on an overnight flight to Thailand, then on to the unnamed country in the morning. I'm not looking forward to this. DH is in business cod work are paying. I couldn't bring myself to pay that much for myself. How mean would it be to insist on swopping seats if I get too uncomfortable? At 13 weeks, I think it would be quite mean...

They won't let you swap halfway niff so you'll have to insist on it from the beginning I wasn't any more uncomfortable than usual when I flew at 14 weeks but hubby doesn't need to know that haha - business class is amaaaaazing!

Thanks for the tip bat - that is the plan for the way back! He has to work this week so I think it's fair he gets the sleep. I'm going to look at a couple of accommodation options but otherwise sleep. On the way back, I have to work after the flight so...swopsies!

Not much internet at the other end so I'll be back in a week viroids! I reckon at least 1 new baby by then... la! Dulcet do you still have a little while longer? Fleur?

I think I am in for the long haul niff!

Good luck finding accommodation and yes, I think DH should give up his business class seat (or see if they will upgrade you so you can sit together ).

New bras have come, I got non wired cotton ones from Evans and I have perkiness again viroids
I'm beyond chuffed!

I also got some big sloggy knickers which are incredibly comfortable

Finally a pack of 2 strappy nighties for hospital 2 sizes too big, which means I can pull the neckline down and comfortably expose a boob to feed

That and the new bath/screen so I can have a bath and my life is complete. Happy purplehouse here

Oh and we dtd, first time in about 2 months!

Niff! You're off! Already?! Deffo swap with DH... Go out in style!

So, I don't feel sick exactly, but I don't want food. But I am also a but hungry. Might make a cup a soup as compromise.

Aah Honey, the old hungry but don't want to eat scenario. Or occasionally the even more bizarre full but still hungry shenanigans. It does get better!!

And the hungry but as soon as you have a mouthful of food, you're full.

I am back to those days

I had a cornetto. Which are now tiny, by the way. It was good but do still feel a bit bleugh.

mountain we should go on a virtual cinema date!

Dh just left for work and I'm going to make scones and freeze them for Monday's party. Never made scones before so this could be interesting!

Wanted to get something done today at least, as then on Monday if I feel tired all I have to do is the sandwiches and set out the table. Got 16 people coming apparently! Wow! Not sure our garden is going to cope with that many.

MiniLa is having fun pushing his feet out of my side today - it's highly entertaining. My stomach is contorting different ways.

Sooo much cooler today after the rain last night and there's a lovely breeze too. Don't feel so horrifically tired as yesterday.

dulcet I LoVE Captain Calamari! He's on my amazon list but I don't think anyone's bought him - he's a bit more expensive so I didn't really expect anyone to. We'll buy him ourselves if they don't but I'm under strict instructions from my friends not to buy anything until after the party.

What are you seeing at the cinema? Unfortunately when dh goes to work with car I don't have the ability to go anywhere, so that's me at home for the night now. So I'm just going to do some baking and perhaps some painting.

ooh just looked and someones bought Freddie the Firefly! Awww, that's brilliant. I have nice friends.

Today I'm wearing the vest and leggings staple - actually not as hot as I thought it would be! I've only just discovered how good Kindles are, I've had one for years but never used it. I love it!

bat I found Debenhams really help for measuring, but perhaps it depends on the branch. I've gone from 32D to a 38E in this pregnancy.

niff oooh, enjoy! Hope it goes well and you find somewhere suiitable. I love travelling business class!

I think dulcet is popping before me - she's a week ahead and my LO has settled down.

honey I used to eat tonnes of fruit pastille lollies in first tri - they settled my stomach

I've got indigestion so I'm burping away. Does anyone else at my stage find when you need to poo you REALLY need to go - like immediately? I almost pood myself earlier

NFMA - just had to poo desperately three times in 10 minutes. TMI I know, but there you go. It was like being hungover. Feel about a stone lighter, hooray!

Oh and I got letter today from doctor after my urine test was sent off the other day. It doesn't say anything about what was found in the sample, but says I have to go in to repeat the sample 'in the next two weeks'. So does that mean I go in on Monday? It's a bit vague. I've had leukocytes in my urine all the way through the pregnancy but there were more of them the other day apparently.

Pre-labour clear out la?

Hope your other urine test comes back ok

Could it be that you think la? Seems to be a thing that happens! Weird about the urine test, if there was a problem in sure it would have said. Can you ring and ask?

I'm next technically out of the three niff, due on Thursday. But who knows! Enjoy your week though, and absolutely get him to swap!

Didn't go to cinema on the end, went for cocktails with inlaws instead. Got a party tonight, must not sleep! Debating whether DH should stop drinking for a bit in case of needing to drive? What do you think? He only drinks if we go out so should he not drink tonight? Feel bad if then nothing happens!

I suppose it's a "what's worse?" choice for him?

A) Be too drunk to drive you to hospital safely
B) Go without alcohol for a few weeks

La, you are bringing the glamour, you really are

Well it's a simple decision when you put it like that honey!

dulcet my dh has been on alcohol limitation for over a week now, just in case. He can have one small drink, but needs to be under limit to drive. He's been really good abiding by it - at first he was quite :( about it but when I put it to him as that I can't drive to hospital if I'm having contractions/crowning, then he got it. Also the having to be compus mentus when he's there.

I've never forgotten an article about my ex and his semi-famous wife, where she said that she had to drive herself to hospital in labour because he'd had a drink. It just sounded so bloody awful - I already felt sorry for her being married to him!

Nah - don't think it was 'the big clear' out - think there's just no room in there so when I need to go I need to go!

Have had scone disaster. Lost all respect for Mary Berry, her recipe was shite. Delia's come up trumps so far. Will post pic of horrendous scone effort, so you can all feel good about yourselves and your baking skills in comparison :)

Enjoy the party Dulcet!

Man I want a scone now! Cream, jam...nom

My DP doesn't drive. So I'll either be driving myself or getting a lift from my grandad.

Sorry for not catching up properly viroids. Busy Saturday sitting in the sun 10 weeks today and bean is apparently officially a fetus according to my book! :)

Serious scanxiety setting in though. DP made me cry by saying all he hopes is for both of us to be ok on Tuesday.
