I'm 4dpo and feeling really nauseous. I'm planning to test on Saturday (9dpo) or Sunday (10dpo).

BTW, swish - I forgot to mention that my brother makes insensitive comments all the time about how he's SURE if I have another baby it'll be a boy...and he knows how desperately I want a girl.

YAY!!! 4dpo!!! I would definitely wait until the weekend (Sunday if you can).

!!!!!

Errrrrrr....

My mom was making those comments last year but w/her I think it was b/c she didn't want us to have more than 2 kids (b/c she did so she thinks that's best for everyone...so annoying!)

I've decided that it would be far more of a challenge to me to not log in so much - not good for my testosterone at all

Perhaps I'll find a happy medium!

Yeah...I probably wouldn't have made it either, lol! You'll be fine!

So true! I also tried to stay away around my attempt, but I wasn´t able to resist

OOTB according to FF it was 6dpo when I had the implantation dip.
My temp was back up today.
So..I just tested, it is negative, BUT on the side I see a purple dot where (I think) the testline would appear...

I think I could eat a normal dinner today-but I´m scared!

So exciting!!! The timing of the dip sounds really promising! I think it can take up to about 48 hrs to get some sort of + after implantation. You may be able to get a really faint one tomorrow. Oh, I'm giddy w/excitement for you!!!

Thank you! I know 7 dpo is too early to test but I really really really want to eat normally (especially for the bean if it´s in nythere) so I didn´t want to miss a change lol. Will test again tomorrow morning..

Thank you for all your encouragement, ladies!!! It's so hard to believe I will be one of the people saying 'my sway worked!!!', positivity isn't my strong point, I'm more of a think the more realistic option and if the other happens I'll be delighted!!!
Indira, sooooo excited for you, I really hope this is it!!
Mocha, you have very promising symptoms too, fx!!
Ootb, salad and strawberries - no, no, no!!!!! You HAVE to eat for the rest of us!!! Seriously, I saw a few girls on ingender that didn't fancy the food they used to eat when pregnant and ended up having.....a girl!!!
Today so far..
No breakfast
Lunch jam sandwich, go ahead bar, apple and cinnamon rice cakes
Very low on everything as I'm eating out with friends tonight, I phoned the restaurant to ask about low sodium food, they said they could make me a salt free pasta Sauce from scratch but I can't work out how to do it without making a show in front of everyone, think I'll just go for the pasta/ tomato option, should be ok as I've only had 110mg sodium today
so lots left in the budget!!
Zani, that is very good point about being more challenging not to log on!!! I have bought myself 3 new books so really trying to do the chilling thing, I would normally never do that unless on holiday. The week of ov is just before my holiday and I'll be in my 'super organised' element, might have to let everything be chaos!!!! Now that would be a challenge...

**Mochagirl** · July 25th, 2011, 01:47 PM

I'm sure the pasta with tomato sauce will be fine. I always figure it's better to go over with sodium rather than protein anyway.

**zanacal** · July 25th, 2011, 02:16 PM

Where are you going on holiday swish? My goodness going through an airport and on a flight with 3 children would have my testosterone blowing out of my ears! Good job you'll already be in your 2ww

I'm sure the food will be fine tonight, sodium probably matters least.

Ugh, this year has been the year of disgusting firsts for our family. First DS1 brought home headlice from school (several times) and just when I'm finally not freaked out by that DS2 has threadworms! I feel awful for him because I saw them and said 'oh you've got worms' whereas it may have been better just to call it an infection or something so as not to freak him out. Needless to say he IS freaked out and DS1 is scared of him getting too near too. It is truly gross and I'm waiting for DH to come home with the medicine and am busy washing all our bedding and towels etc. I discovered this this afternoon and this morning we went fruit picking - I dread to think of what might have exchanged hands there!

Now on to food (funny, not that hungry right now!):

Lunch: Mum's homemade blueberry muffin, raspberries and blackberries, light squirty cream. Velvet Crunch (these are a bit like rice cakes but are made from tapioca and cassava, whatever that is!) - very low in everything and a yummy cheese & onion flavour.
Dinner: Innocent aubergine vegetable pot (very nice and probably way too healthy!), 2 mini pittas. ww ice cream sundae.
Snack: Haven't decided yet!
