I got my BFP on Saturday! :o)
How it happened:
I had tested a few times that week, all BFN. According to FF I was 17DPO but I didn't believe my O date since I skipped so many days with temping.
Friday morning I took a test with FMU and it was a BFN. I figured that's what I would see before I tested and was just waiting for my period to show up.
On Saturday, I decided to test again on a whim (since I have a stockpile of test strips anyways!). It wasn't with FMU since it was about 10am. I left the strip in the bathroom and went to make breakfast. I forgot about the test for probably half an hour, and when I remembered I was like oh yeah, I better go throw that out (assuming it would be a BFN). Instead I saw a super faint line...so faint that I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. Check it out:
See what I mean?? I knew I had to ask someone if they saw a line on there too, but the picture makes it even more faint. I texted the picture to one of my friends and she thought the white line (where the white plastic ends) was the line....I was like no, between that and the red line, there's a light pink line...right?
She said she saw it.
That was it for me, I dug out the one digital I had been hoarding, and thankfully I had kept the urine in my little cup! I dipped it in, capped it and put it down in front of me in the living room while I talked to my friend. I looked down and I saw this:
I freaked out! I honestly did not think I was pregnant, especially after getting a BFN the day before (at 16DPO). I texted my husband (who was coaching Squash at the Y all day!) and asked if he could come home at lunchtime. He couldn't since he only had half an hour. Thankfully, my friend who I asked to check out the pics told me we would go to the movies and do something to take my mind off it so I wasn't pacing in my apartment all day!
Later in the evening when Troy came home, I played it cool for about half an hour (I couldn't figure out the way to tell him!). Then I just walked up to him, sat next to him on the couch and handed him the digital test that said "YES". He just looked at me and asked if I was really pregnant. He was so shocked and stayed that way for the rest of the day.
We ended up telling both our families (parents and siblings, and my grandmother) that day. Everyone is very excited!
