We're marvelling at bucket fanjos, peeing while we vom, trying subsistence farming and staying incontinent. Keeping our GX and firmly holding the hands of viroids having a hard time - JSing grads 36!

[pretzelpieces]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 36th 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 35th grads fred is here.

The thread we have graduated from is here in its 51st 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've forgotten what my DP looks like. He's been on nights forever and had loads of extra work on then he's going to spend the rest of time doing the new house up I haven't seen him naked for weeks

I have a serious issue with bacon at the moment. If I smell cooking bacon I have a sudden desire to eat it, so I have to go and buy a bacon sandwich. It's getting bad, because I swear everyone's eating bacon at the moment!

Morning everyone, hope all viroids are doing well.

Ga I do hope you get to see dp naked very soon. I'm mostly only seeing mine naked, when he wakes me up getting up for work in the morning. He is such a noisy man! There are days when I could gladly kick him in the knackers for waking the kids just putting his shoes on

Sorry to all those who are feeling sick. It's horrible

I am 30+3 today and I am on recovery day two from a crazy weekend. I spent Saturday at Pembrey Country Park, Sunday at Margam Park for Volksfest and brought two extra kids home with me, one of whom has ADHD and autism. I had to chase the four of them (including my own) around alone because dp decided to stay out until 2:30am. The following day the four kids and I attended a birthday meal, one of them sulked the whole time and three of them went mental and I wanted to hide under a table. Tuesday their Mam came to visit for the day to take them home but stayed all day while our kids continued being insane, there was a game of musical statues played by the youngest three, two of whom were naked and singing songs about poo. I spent yesterday on my sofa and today is heading that way too. I am too large and exhausted for such things. This weekend involves my birthday, a trip to Folly Farm and then off to London to stay with my sister for a few days so I am taking the rest where I can get it.

Morning!
pud that dream gbbo sounds amazing! Biscuit armadillo!

After watching last week's obem on catch up (haven't watched this week's yet) I've reignited my fears of things going wrong. I just want the pregnant to pass as quickly as possible as if that'll stop something bad happening - I think I want to reach each level of safety sooner and I feel like being further along with give me that. Only 14+1 at the moment so it's going to drag if I keep wishing it away!

*the pregnancy, not the pregnant

Pretzel you're wishing your pregnancy away lovie, have you done anything about the anxiety? What about a massage, or is it bad enough for a trip to GP? You'll get movement soon which will help. I do sympathise, it's awful and spoiled things for me early on too

Rhi I'm exhausted and I don't have children! Hope you get a good rest this weekend. The last one sounds beyond exhausting

Mmmm bacon - now thinking about lunch

Thanks purple. I'm already under the community mental health team and mh midwives bonkers Although I haven't seen the latter yet, my first appointment is in a couple of weeks.

Rhi fucking hell. Like actual HELL! I bet you're knackered. My one child has me run ragged but 4???? Fuck no. Its your birthday on Saturday isn't it, so do nothing and try to relax.
I did ask DP to flash me his gentlemans vegetables yesterday but he called me a fucking weirdo. Fair enough.

A lady on the October bus is imminent. Has that happened with the August and September buses yet?

I just went down the cafeteria for some emergency bacon and they had shut the breakfast bar :( sad face!

pret sorry you're not enjoying it. It's not a fun time but you are past the 12 week mark. Your chance of having a happy healthy baby are waaaaaaaaay above the chances of anything going wrong. Try to enjoy it. I must admit I'm still shattered (and sleeping at every opportunity) and still getting waves of nausea, but the idea that there's a little bubba swimming around in me makes me so happy :) 15w today, over a third of the way there now!

rhi you're a hero. I don't know how you managed that!!! And folly farm, is that the one in wales in pembrokeshire? If so, I went there in April, it was amazing!

I'm so bored at work, the tube strike means the office is dead, i've not got much to do as it's the summer holiday and i keep thinking longingly about my bed.

Thank jelly. Sorry you're feeling pants, I've been knackered but I only feel ill during the evening now usually. Yes I should really be telling myself "there's a 98% chance of things going right" instead of "there's a 2% chance of things going wrong". Those numbers are probably wrong though, I don't know.

98% good is fantastic odds keep thinking that

No one on September has had their baby yet, I hid the FB group cos there's a lot of moaning. Not that I'm doing any of that

There's a lot less twattery on the October FB group at the moment. Its a lot better.

pretzel I'm under them too. First appointment will be sept 1st. I totally understand where you are coming from, had exactly the same with my first. I had problems binding with him and it wasn't til I could feel movement that I started to enjoy it. Unfortunately being overweight and having an anterior placenta meant that didn't happen until later than I would have liked!

how do you find out if your placenta is anterior or not? do they tell you at scans?

Yeah at the 20w scan. Not sure if they can tell at the 12 but I was told at 20

Ooh would yay. I mean not yay but as someone said upfred it's nice to have someone on here with a similar 'ailment' or whatever. Did you find the mh midwives helpful last time or weren't you under them?

Ga, Jelly and Pretzel, I don't feel very heroic. It was mostly a fun weekend and I've been lucky to be feeling pretty good for the last few weeks. Jeremies are gone, and while I am getting tired easily it isn't debilitating yet. Jelly it is the very same Folly Farm you speak of, we've been before and I love the place. So big we didn't even get around the whole park last time and really cheap to get in.

It is indeed my birthday on Saturday and Folly Farm is my Dad's present to me. He and my stepmother are coming along too. I appreciate that having a birthday at a zoo when you turn 34 is a little unorthodox but what can you do?

Ga sorry your dp is a spoilsport by keeping his veg to himself, hopefully you can capitalise on his tiredness one day soon and get lucky when he's unable to fight of your advances due to fatigue.

haha rhi when we went we said it was for our friends baby, but she was 4 months and spent most of the time alseep! We actually went for us (5 25 year olds at a farm/zoo!)

Sorry in advance for dragging the mood down. Had a big argument with DH last night. We seem to be getting annoyed at each other much more recently. Normally things blow over quite quickly when we ague, but things still don't feel right today.

No point going into it really. I'm frustrated by his attitude towards the pregnancy and some stuff around the house, and he is annoyed at my frustrations and thinks I am being unfair. Which I might be I guess, since I can't even pinpoint why I'm so frustrated.

I feel like I just want to go home for a while, but it's too expensive.

Just fed up of feeling like a useless skivvy, and I don't know if it's just hormones or what.

Oh gouda
I'm sorry you're feeling blue.

No I wasn't under them.last time, they are a new thing in our area. Hoping they will help to either keep the PND away, or at least get it managed earlier. Yeah it's good to know there's someone who's been there done that and can help to support!

gouda I hope things get better when you talk again.

would Ah good to know you'll have the support ready this time if you need it. I imagine it's different in different areas but I'll let you know what my first appointment with them is like.

Gouda it's not easy coming to terms with having a baby and you need to go easy on yourselves. It took me a while to appreciate that dp has no real idea of how it feels to be pregnant with all the physical and mental difficulties that brings with it - along with the joys of course. Keep talking to each other and be specific about what you want from him. Also even if you are being unreasonable, he needs to accept that with patience, it's part and parcel of pregnancy. Don't beat yourself up, get something nice in for tea and talk it over. It'll be okay

Jelly I am glad it isn't just me with the adult trips to the zoo

Just nearly fainted in the hairdressers - got really hot and light headed and the world went blurry. Hairdresser told me that my head flopped over to one side too. #mortified. Feeling much better now but embarrassed...

Ooh deeply are you home safe? Hows your BP do you know?
