After welcoming the Batlet, we're ready for Halloween, our bellies full of candy and almost nothing green! With accidentally bald fanjos, never-ending nausea, and delinquent babies, it's JS Grads 40!

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 40th 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 39th grads fred is HERE.

The thread we have graduated from is HERE in its 55th 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.

Thanks carrot! I've just picked up some trousers from next ... No proper bump yet but getting really uncomfortable so just giving in! I'll let you know what they're like, think they are 24quid and I'll probably wash and wear them nearly every work day.

Thanks gouda, she said generally they sort themselves out but if I get any severe pain I must go in as it may be twisting! So hoping that's a very rare occurrence!

oneyorkshirepud · 02/11/2015 17:46

Auf!!!! Lovely to hear from you! Hope you have some anti sickness meds, that sounds grim.

Welcome/welcome back Disco and Gouda Grin

Yeah the first tri tiredness was actually worse than when I had glandular fever. I was convinced that iron levels were low but nope, they were surprisingly high - random.

Yey for everyone with scans today! Lil are you tomorrow?

jellypi3 · 02/11/2015 17:59

lil is tomorrow, I'm so excited for her!!!

CountryGal4 · 02/11/2015 18:06

Asos have started selling tall maternity wear ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

jellypi3 · 02/11/2015 18:44

I've just bought a maternity coat so hoping that's all I need to buy now!

ThursdayLastWeek · 02/11/2015 19:36

Yipee! DH just felt his first kick Smile
I made him sit there til it moved.

KateBeckett · 02/11/2015 20:16

Awwww thurs that's fab! I can't wait until I start to show a bit and when df can start feeling kicks and stuff. I don't think it feels real to him yet! He made me do a digi test the other day so he could see the word 'pregnant' haha! I bet you dp was made up Smile

First day back at work done... It was awful Sad my class behaved terribly, I spent the whole day being shouty teacher, feeling guilty for being shouty teacher, and worrying about small (womble stretchy pains seemed worse today, maybe because I was on my feet all day, being grumpy with kids and not napping?! Feels fine now!)

How did people's scans go?! Gx for tomorrow lil !

CarrotPuff · 02/11/2015 21:21

Canesten pessary is ok to use, right?

5hell · 02/11/2015 21:52

Sorry carrot no idea

jel where's coat from?...pictures please! I'm going to need one soonish.

Popped to gp after work to see if they could shed any light on test results, and whilst they had nothing for 12w tests they did have my booking in blood results, so at least I know where I started at...all OK except slightly low lymphocytes Grin

jellypi3 · 02/11/2015 21:54

Coat was from flea bay carrot, I'll post a pic when I get it Wednesday :)

pretzelpieces · 02/11/2015 21:57

No, just the cream I think carrot.

Evening all. Keep forgetting to catch up on here when I've been on fb group! For those not on fb, shitting it about scan but I'm feeling hopeful. Probably break out the digi in the morning lol

disco I think I do remember you! Hi! And congrats.

Tiredness seems to have eased again. Not enough to stop me getting on with stuff generally but more tired than normal.

Who asked if I'd be 10weeks based on LMP? LMP is pretty irrelevant for me as I down regged for 2weeks after bleed before 2weeks of stims hormones to grow the eggs. But based on fertilisation day being 2wks pg I'm 8wks tomorrow. But clinic date from transfer so I'm 3days behind that at 7+4 tomorrow where they are concerned.

CarrotPuff · 02/11/2015 22:53

Keeping all gingers crossed for you lil. I'm sure everything's fine in there, it's just a question of how many Smile

Argh, really? The cream just isn't cutting it Sad

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 02/11/2015 22:56

I remember you disco! Welcome back!

pretzelpieces · 02/11/2015 23:32

carrot well cream only is what I was told but Google brings up conflicting advice. Confused does anyone else think the system around medicines in pregnancy is just so unhelpful. Everyone's scared of getting sued and you can't tell what is genuinely likely to cause harm and what probably won't?

Hey pretz this site is Canadian and is affiliated with the Canadian equivalent of Great Ormond Street Hospital. You can search for over the counter treatments and get information on studies and advice that is more liberal than the UK. motherisk.org I find that I prefer to read up on here before making decisions on treatments.

KateBeckett · 03/11/2015 06:22

That website looks really interesting sky

Oh em gee. Pregsomnia is kicking my are. Sad Sad I have my ppa this afternoon, need to prep for my performance management observation tomorrow, and plan for next week, but I think I want to nap...

rdm10 · 03/11/2015 08:17

Morning,
Lots of scans this week, good luck scanners!
Still no sign of ginormobaby yet, had another growth scan yesterday and baby is measuring 10lb 6oz so seems baby is growing 1oz a day! Booked in for a section next Monday at 40+2 but hoping baby will make an appearance before then (as long as it doesn't rip me in half on its way out naturally!!!)
Oh and I've found next maternity trousers quite good and pretty cheap.

CarrotPuff · 03/11/2015 08:52

Thanks Sky. I think I'll just use the pessary.

Anyone else has ridiculous amount of discharge? I need to change my liner half way through the day Confused

MollyBloomYes · 03/11/2015 09:04

Eeeeeeeeeeee scan day! Gx, can't wait to hear news!

Consultant for me today, discussing elcs. Quite nervous, am sure last time she said I could have what I wanted but there's still that doubt, especially as I said I'd originally go for the vbac. Going in armed with reasons. And many many snacks to keep the boy quiet for the duration!

jellypi3 · 03/11/2015 09:19

carrot swamp foof is a constant battle for me...it's pretty gross!

SkyWasMadeOfAmethyst · 03/11/2015 10:23

Good luck carrot hope you feel better soon.

FeatheredTail · 03/11/2015 11:15

Looking forward to seeing Lil's scan pic later.

My nausea has now all but gone! Felt a bit rough/sick last night (and still went to bed at 21:30) but today I have managed to pack away....

Toasted pita bread and peanut butter
A pomegranate
A rice krispies 'square'
A cheese string
A marks and spencer mexican rice salad

Yahoo! Obviously, I'm also crapping myself at this sudden turn of physical symptoms. Roll on Thursday.

lildottie · 03/11/2015 12:05

So I guess ii should post here as well as fb...one little blob with a beautiful heartbeat. Midwife appt booked for 2 weeks time.

feathered I thought yours was this afternoon but going by your last post its Thursday. Anyone else in between?

fruitlovingmonkey · 03/11/2015 12:07

Welcome Disco, nice to have some other newbies.
Hope you feel better Carrot.
Lil that was me. Was basically wondering if they have added the mythical two weeks pre- conception to your dates. Hope you enjoyed your scan.
Well done Feathered, you've eaten two of my favourite foods there- pomegranate and cheese string! Grin
