It's the calm before the storm (sort of) that is Fantastic February and the March Madness - we did a lot of shagging last summer! We need more JSers on this, our 44th thread!

[ThursdayLastWeek]

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the 44th 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 43rd grads thread is HERE

The thread we have graduated from is HERE in its 57th 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. (Except it's not because I don't know how to link to the stats sheet!)

Thanks sky. I am so grateful for you lot

Oof Sky, that's no fun! Hope everything clears out soon.

I am considering disinfecting the kitchen. What's happening to me?!?!

Oh! Oh! I saw baby sucking its fist on scan today. So cute!

Haha you're nesting honey

I'm on the ward, waiting for the doctor to prescribe the pessary. Been on the monitor and got my bed so all good :)

Any progress pret?

honey that is the cutest!

Gx for viroids doing babies today!
That's really cute Honey.
Hope your scan goes well Pee.

I had a preggo meltdown today. Am away for the weekend for a friend's birthday and everything seemed to go wrong for me today. Ended with me crying by the bins and texting DH that I want to go home. Have calmed down a bit now and ate cakes for my lunch so I'm feeling better.

fixed all Fruit. Gx you feel better and enjoy yourself.

Just realised... After Jelly and Pretzel do their babies, I'm #1. Uh oh.

Luckily Cake is only one day behind me so may well pop first. It's OK. No need to panic.

Yay for good scan news honey. Sorry about vom, not long now.

Sorry you're still poorly sky. I've always found hot water with honey and lemon quite soothing.

I've not eaten any chocolate today yet. I have had some pineapple though, and my tongue really stings now. How could you eat the whole one jelly is beyond me.

I love my preggo Pilates.

What news from yonder inductions?

Maybe the emosh realise by the bins helped you fruit! does save the day! I had a creme egg earlier and it was amazing, then some Soreen! Was lush.

Wah! Thumb sucking honey! Cute!

So just seen my baby making all the motions of eating a biscuit on the scan! All looking good and sonigrapher was happy.

She said they don't usually even look at placentas at this stage as they aren't in final position but mine is 'blocking the birth canal' at the mo! Apparently this can be normal and as my cervix gets bigger the placenta shifts up, most of the time.

I resolutely refuse to think about low lying placentas or google any other stuff until after 20 week scan!

So basically this might be why I keep bleeding at the moment. Now I refuse to poo either because every time it's happened it's been due to straining! (TMI)!

Again midwives not concerned so neither am I honest

That sounds reassuring pee, understandable you're still feeling nervous about it though

Update shamelessly copy and pasted from the fb group:

I finally got examined! It took her a while to get past the swollen bit where the MW fucked it up yesterday but once she did (and she was patient and didn't force it) she found my cervix has shortened and come forward so they can break my waters!!

However! The delivery suite is very busy this evening and I am a tired emotional wreck so they have suggested giving me a sleeping tablet tonight and breaking my waters in the morning, which sounds very sensible to me. Thank fuck I don't have to have another pessary and those contractions have actually done something.

I'm still contracting but less often and slightly less painfully. Sister has swapped out for DP again.

Oh and I totally thought I saw a silly on the scan but was prob a toe or something! I don't want to know so will try and forget that bit!

Sorry willy not silly .

Sleep fixes everything Pretz! Things are moving and that's great - sending snoozy vibes to you xx

hooray for good scan and biscuit-miming baby pee :)
get thee some fibre, i prescribe dates, bran flakes and prunes

seems so quiet on here as we all wait for jelly/pretz news! came home from hairdressers to power cut and couldn't get online to check for announcements...panic!!!! (also had to walk part way back in pitch darkness due to said power cut!) power's back now though, phew!

have had v nice day off, even if massively unproductive!!!

how are you feeling now fruit?

Pee to be honest, even if placenta stays low, it just means you'll need an ELCS. Molly and Purple will tell you how lovely and relaxing it was.

All sounding good Pretzel! Baby Pretz could be here tomorrow!

That's good pretzel, hope you get some rest

Posted too soon.

Yay for positive scan pee. Have they given you any information about placenta previa? You need to be quite careful if it's completely covering your cervix.

Of all the things to develop a bizarre weird-taste-aversion thing to, why did it have to be TEA?!

Noooooooo! Poor sock

Oh sock i haven't touched tea in. 7 months! That and eggs and bananas. Chances are you'll fancy it again soon !

I went off tea first time too.
Not so much this time though - small mercies.

I have eaten my body weight in salt today I reckon. Glad I'm not having my BP taken for a while.

Sock I kind of had tea aversion both times in first tri. It went away though.

Baby keeps poking its feet out on the right side of the bump. Would be cute if it wasn't painful

I had an aversion to tea AND chocolate in the first tri. WTAF? I have made up for it since
