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!

[pretzelpieces]

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.

I wasn't allowed water during mine either. It was horrible.

Well done Pretz, sounds like a bit of a drag but at least you got some time out.
Does everyone have to have the gtt or only if you are at high risk?

Glad it's over for you pretzel I'm reeling you had to provide your own lucozade! Although I think I would have preferred bringing my own to the rank syrupy thing I had to have. Crack on with the duvet, sounds like absolutely the best plan.

What are devilled eggs? Are they currified? I feel like I would enjoy them.

You know when you're so tired you vomit? Yeah, that. DS slept all night as well so no idea why I'm so shattered. Nothing for it but mince pie and a cuppa on the sofa I think!

nothing to drink for 2hrs!?!?!?
just the thought if that makes me uncomfortable/twitchy (almost as uncomfortable as the though of not having a lip balm within reach!)

pud i think a change is good sometimes, I abandonned my leg cushion last night too and slept a bit better
(disclaimer mine is currently just a normal pillow folded and stuffed inside a smaller pillow case, as I'm still a bit jittery about jinxing by buying much preggo stuff)

Got my first nct in 2 hours...eep! Hope I like them and they like me lol

And I'm done!! No work for over a year! I can't quite believe it but so glad that I can now rest

pretzel you're get sounds horrible but at least it's over now and I'm glad the mh midwives were nice when they eventually turned up. They have been such a help to me

molly I'm jealous of your mince pie. Could so eat one of those right now.....or maybe two.......

Think its only high risk fruit I didn't have to have one.

pud I've had to do the 3 pillow prop up for the last couple of nights to be able to get any sleep so I'm envious of your good sleep without Peter. There is becoming less and less space for dp in the bed

Wooooooo jc party time

Well I slept all afternoon! Told DP to go to pub with teacher friend as I am shit company anyway, so no idea when he and the balmy tissue provisions will turn up. Lonely soldier

fruit it's only if you have risk, so for me it's cause my sister has type 2 diabetes. Other reasons could include high bmi, sugar in your wee, previously unexplained ginormababy etc!

jelly Ooh good luck, don't panic if you don't like them straight away, I expect everyone is feeling nervous.

molly sofa and mince pie is also an excellent plan! Sorry to hear about the vom.

jc whoo hoo!

Have not read the Fred, will do so in a minute, need advice!

Just got home. Small black feathers everywhere, on the floor upstairs and downstairs, in my shoes on the bed, on the linen cupboard etc! Cannot find remains of bird (which I am very much hoping is dead!) Cat people, do we think the cats ate the whole thing?! It would have been a small bird judging by the feathers. Or is my house just going to start smelling of dead bird?! If you were a cat where would you hide a half eaten dead bird? I've already checked my shoes and the bed!

Definitely not been eaten whole. I thought they only brought them in as presents

My cats usually leave a few pieces to prove how they managed to bravely murder a small animal. It's usually a leg.

Have now rtf!

Woo hoo JC! Congratulations on no work! I have two weeks to go but not convinced the baby is going to stay put for that long, still having all the BH but don't think baby is actually engaged so hopefully it will keep cooking for a bit longer!

Pretzel well done on getting through today, sounded rubbish.

Have hoovered up all the feathers and still can't find any remnants. The feather trail seems to finish in my bedroom (joy) but I'm thinking I'd there were still bits left the cats would have given the game away by now? Wishful thinking.

Tonight's dilemma: microwave popcorn or open the box of chocs my boss gave me today (Yes, she is awesome!)

Thanks pud, my vote is for chocs AND popcorn! Hopefully if there are bird bits left the cats will draw your attention to them before the smell does.

molly these are devilled eggs I made mine using this recipe except I did six small blue eggs from Clarence Court. I have a thing for the Clarence Court eggs, so delicious! The other measurements I kept. I used mayonnaise, butter, vinegar from a jar of pickled jalapeños, and Franks Red Hot sauce. They are very vinegary but I love that. Oh and they are best cold, cold, cold.

Yay for finishing work JC!

pud you must be getting close too?

Yep, 10 more days for me - can't wait!

Oh and dijon too for the devilled eggs!

Gosh we are a quiet bunch tonight. Is everyone knackered?

[santa] to all and a full of cordial too!

Thanks sky! Might try those this weekend!

No worries molly my advice is don't eat more than 5 halves in one go... It is tempting but I always regret it after

Ooh I love devilled eggs! Thanks for the recipe Sky.
I'm packing for my London trip, or trying to. It's a bit hard when hardly any of my clothes fit me comfortably fatty.

There's more ingredients in yours Sky. Must be a regional thing... MIL is from California.

Yay for mat leave JC!

One my mums cat always leaves the stomach and intestines!

Have finally added myself to stats sheet but am using due date based on fertilisation! I'm a rebel like that!

Well nct was...interesting. one or two lentil weavers in there but I'm sure we will click. I giggles at the phrase "face to pubes" and got a scathing look from the teacher.

honey how dies she make hers? I will try it all!

Does not dies!
