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.

Great to hear that mini-la is feeling better and that the hospital stay isn't as long as you were initially told. You must be sonewhere between relieved and exhausted.
things ok here - glad mat leave has started, as coming up to 37 weeks now, and tiring more easily. And as dh kindly pointed out a while ago, my top speed and turning circle aren't what they once were..... but generally ok. Bought epi no on indigo's advice, but nowhere near her standards yet

Wow la you must be shattered, bless you. Glad you are feeling loved up though

MORNING VIROIDS!!!! why the feck am I awake

God la that sounds absolutely horrendous, I'm so glad you're through it now and I hope you never have to go through anything like it again!

Morning!

molly good plan on having it out with DH after your nap. Smart girl.

Had a dream last night that I was in labour and it was dragging... Didn't hurt but didn't really get going either. Oh, but then I had a girl, who then morphed in to twin girls. My fil decided he wanted to change a nappy and went to town with an apron and rubber gloves. It was a weird dream.

Morning viroids.

la how scary for you! Amazing motherly instincts though :) look forward to the birth story, and glad he's doing better. Hope he's home my lunch time!

So I'm really suffering with stress at the moment. After my 4:30 rise on Saturday I've not been eating (no appetite) and just feel close to crying all the time. It's this damn house move, we've still not sold ours and it's stressing me out beyond belief. I'm tempted to go to the doctor and see if I can get signed off for a couple of days but I know people will just grumble and say it's probs just pregnancy related! DP is being better though.

So what if it is pregnancy related? If you need time to recover, you need it
No-one else's business why.

Glad DH is being less of a knob.

Thanks honey, i guess I'm just being stupidly concerned about what people think!!

Yes you are. Screw people, people suck.

Hee hee what Honey said. Stress is no good for you and the bambino. Definitely have time off if you need it. Can you just self - certify? Sympathies on the house over stress, it is a v stressful experience unfortunately

It's just that we were given 3 weeks to get an offer on our house and my grandparents house, and our estate agent practially said she had buyers lined up. Since then, my grandparents have had around 30 viewings and 4 offers (one over asking price!) and we had 5 viewings and diddly squat. So we have until this Thursday to get an offer on ours or we lose the house we want, and it's just so frustrating because it was perfect!

Every time I think about the house I start getting a headache, so at least once it's over, regardless of the outcome, I should feel better!!

la you poor things but glad to hear baby is doing better now. So scary

If my stomach can tell me why it can get through a decent day's exercise yesterday without giving me any grief but struggles with going seven stops on the tube to work that would be great.

jelly that does sound stressful. Being pregnant is more reason to get signed off, stress in pregnancy helps no one. Although, tbf, i think a little tweak to your perspective might help too. I know it's important to you but at the end of the day it's just a house. There are others. I hope that doesn't sound patronising, and I know for sure its easier said than done

Did you do your triathlon Tri? Well done! Do you mean upwards or downwards? My stomach has been very badly effected during exercise and this organ any - anything over 5k and I'm desperate to get to the loo

Anyways. In other news, I'm about to amputate my own leg at the knee. I got bitten three time on the same leg on Saturday and they've reacted really really badly and the itching is making me lose my mind.

I know thursday and i'm kind of of the mind that if we don't get it it's meant to be, but my grandparents are so keen on this house, and where they live is aweful, I want them out of there asap but basically if we don't get this house i won't move for at least 18 months, so just feel bad for them!

I told my boss this morning if I'm still suffering with stress later this week I'll just work from home / take a few days off because it's not good for bambino!

Yup, took it really slow (kept it below the effort that usually corresponds to a HR when running of around 145-150 for me) and got around in 3:36. About half an hour slower than I did last year but really enjoyed the day. I'd struggled a bit on the way to the race, nearly puked carrying my bike up stairs at Shadwell overground station, and said "Right, we'll just try the swim, see how this goes". That turned into "Not too bad, let's head out on the bike", that turned into "Alysia Montano is my spirit animal" and then "Woohoo, was able to hold down some nutrition on the bike (a pork pie) and hydrate well, time for a little jog".

I did go home and sleep for a solid 2 hours after it though.

Well done! I'm super impressed! My pace and breathing were affected almost the day I got my BFP, so I've had to cut right back down. I'm hoping that when I don't feel sick anymore I'll avtually want to go out again - at the mo I'm just going through the motions in a bid to not lose all my fitness.

I'm going to have to pull out if my HM though, no way I can get the miles under my belt to train for it in 6 weeks

la I saw on fb minila not well, glad to hear he's on the mend though. thinking of you xx

Jelly I know it's not easy as I have problems with stress. Tell the estate agent to work harder!

Lil! How's tricks? I never manage to keep up on undergrads.

Hi viroids, I'm still here, was driving the digger stacking hay all day yest and didn't get in till 2am, will catch up later. All quiet on the northern front

Indigo you are so badass. Driving heavy machinery whilst pregnant.

I am starting to get a bit of scanxiety now. 12 week scan is in Friday. Eek.

Hi purple 14bcps left until the needles start!

indigo that is totally badass

honey no point stressing about scan until Friday, it won't make it be here any quicker.

Scanxiety is a very real thing Honey. Try to distract yourself lovie.

Eeek Lil, that's exciting, got my gingers crossed

jelly
thursday sorry about your leg, but it really made me laugh the way you said "in other news, I'm going to amputate my own leg"
honey Friday! How exciting. Can understand the anxiety though.
