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.

Oh no deeply, I second Ga's bp suggestion. Hope you are home and taking it easy.

So I think my days of fitting into my high-waisted size 10 skinny jeans are over... wore them in work today and ended up doing an emergency Peacocks run at lunchtime to buy a pair of something looser with an elasticated waist! (may have accidentally'd a rather nice jersey dress too but that's beside the point :) )

Gouda I think having a baby is the biggest disruption a relationship can have. Even if you're solid, it can shake things up a lot!
You probably need a heart to heart with him. He's probably just not getting what's going on, or worrying. Mine was being a bit of an arse early on and it turned out he was worrying about money. Once we worked it out, he's been good as gold since
I think pregnancy has a big effect on them, just in a different way t us obviously

Deeply how scary, hope,you're back home safe now

We were going to get the car seat tonight but mothercare don't keep them in stock. We've got paper vouchers to pay for it with so it has to be there and it can't be online
So now we still have to go to the store and order it, then go back to the store and pick it up

already tri ?!! :)
oh hang-on you dont know quite how far along you are do you?
good excuse to buy nice new clothes either way!

deeply hope you're ok?

I've added an "issues" column. If I haven't done it right, someone with know-how can fix it. excelclueless

i've been a bit crampy today, some have been quite painful. Did any one have days where they were just particularly crampy? I'm 15 weeks.

Hope you're ok deeply. I get horrible hot/fainty/dizzy spells, haven't actually fainted yet as I've always been able to sit or lie down. My BP and iron levels are both ok so I think it could just be one of those things?

jelly yes definitely, I've always tended to be more crampy in the back rather than abdomen but I've definitely had stretchy type pains in the 2nd trimester. Apparently baby has a big growth spurt 16-18 weeks so could be your body getting ready for that.

pretzel and would I've been referred to the mental health midwife team but other than a letter saying I'm on the waiting list I haven't heard anything else so I'll be eagerly reading your experiences.

Perfectly normal jelly probably just round ligament pain

That's shocking jc. You would think with the spotlight recently on MH problems they would make more effort to get you in the system and seen to

Yes, home safely, thanks. Couldn't come home straight away as was covered in foils and highlighting gloop....Settled for a lot of water and some biscuits and sitting in front of an air con unit. Most embarrassing! Was a bit nervous about driving afterwards, so stayed in town for an hour or two afterwards and had a good lunch with a large white choc chip cookie -persuaded myself that my blood sugar levels needed it
just really tired now.
Not really sure why it happened but my iron levels are thought to be ok now after the spatone and blood pressure is low to average, so maybe just one ofthose (embarrassing) things. may be some time before I can face that hairdresser again

Well that was interesting, just got home from Grandad's to find my bathroom ransacked and a very angry cat hiding between my toilet and bath. After numerous failed attempts of getting near the hissing ball of rage I was rescued by my neighbour. God knows what happened between it and my Jack Russell but it seems to be over now, with only some broken glass and a puddle of pee to show for it. Not my pee, might I add, although it was close

rhiannon I take it it wasn't your cat? Did it sneak in through an open window or something? Madness!

So I'm going to be a food bore for a second, pls feel free to ignore, but I'm after some fellow preggo perspective! Does this sound like too much to be eating in one day:

2 weetabix with skimmed milk
Blueberries and a light baby bel
Handful of cashew nuts
Salad with cous cous and feta cheese
Quavers
Apple
Walkers sun bites
2 pieces of wholemeal toast

Bearing in mind this is before dinner oink oink...

Thankfully jelly I'm doing Ok without it. They have said if I get bad again then they can persuade them to be quicker. It's a good job I'm not desperate for it really isn't it!

deeply you have nothing to be embarrassed about! Glad you're feeling better now.

rhi Oh my goodness! Yeah I think I would've piddled on the floor

shuffles up to make room for jc in the crazy corner

jc I was surprised to hear from them actually as my social worker said they don't usually see people until nearer the end of pregnancy? I imagine it is one of these things like everything apparently that varies wildly between areas. Glad you are doing ok at the mo anyway.

Sorry I missed your post looking! I think that sounds fine, healthier than my diet too. I usually have 4 or 5 small ish meals a day and sometimes the odd packet of crisps/fruit/half a bag of Reese's pb cups as well

looking that's breakfast right?

No probs it's a v boring post I'm at a friends for dinner which I think is pasta followed by desert! This is a "healthy" day for me though as it's the week, the weekend is generally bread/crisps/pizza/ice cream/repeat.

looking because I dont have long left til baby born day I am 'full' of baby so not much room for food. I did this last time with DD I maintained my weight for the last 10 weeks. I've actually lost a pound this week.
Anyway today I've had.
Special K
Peach
Half a banana
1x Ryvita with peanut butter on
Ham/mushroom/tagliatelle microwave meal
Sweet potato chips
Magnum.
All little amounts through out the day.

gaggia ooh that's very optimistic and I can imagine being too full of baby! I've gained almost a stone in 19 weeks but in fairness I don't feel like it shows that much...hoping to only gain another stone or stone and a half!

Ps gaggia I hope that doesn't include your dinner!

looking it does, that's me for the day I cant stomach anything after 7 ish.
I've gained 2.5 stone and I'm 31weeks today. I'm quietly confident I'll maintain or lose from now on simply because I'm eating only tiny things.

Oops I might explain why my weight has gone up!

B - 3 crumpets with lurpak and bovril
L - cheese and tomato sandwich - 4 slices of bread (I had to make more I was still hungry!)
D - Pizza Hut popcorn shrimp and individual stuffed crust pepperoni pizza

I'm totally stuffed now and couldn't manage a dessert

TBF dinner is normally something like fish/chicken/quiche with new potatoes and salad

I've now gained 6lbs at week 33. Which is about what he weighs so I'm not fretting

I wouldn't brave putting in writing what I consume during the day... Let's just say I nearly demolished that lemon drizzle cake I baked on Monday evening with a tiny bit of help from DS...

Still no letter. Tried to call them but couldn't get through will keep trying tomorrow...
