That's a totally normal line for 11dpo I think, I got a bfn at 10dpo then on an IC at 12dpo there was the squintiest squinter ever!

Congratulations Writer! Defo a bfp! I'm 11 day po too and not sure if had the tiniest squinter this morning or if I'm just insane! Sending hugs your way x

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 13:34

I might go and get myself a FRER later....

Now panicking about the two glasses of wine I had last night Confused

And it's Sod's Law that I would get my BFP two days before a job interview Grin Grin

HellsBellsK · 10/12/2016 13:38

Ahhhh huge congratulations Writer such great news.
Don't worry about the wine at all - I have known loads of people who have been out the night before a BFP.
My sister in law thought she had a terrible hangover but nope - pregnant!

I was out last night with two good friends, never told them we are TTC but got chatting and we are all TCC at the same time. While its great and I'm so happy I have a feeling they will get pregnant and we will be still trying Sad

Don't worry, I had half a bottle of prosecco after my bfn too Blush I'm already finding it hard to swerve the Christmas party/meals out booze!

Writer YES!! This definitely a good sign, definitely positive in those pictures!! I know you have had it tough recently so I'm so pleased to see this. Oh my goodness I am so pleased for you Smile take it a day at a time Smile.

charley2016 · 10/12/2016 13:44

Yep! I can see the line in all of them!! Fingers crossed that everything is ok, im sure that a little bit of blood is quite common, especially if it's brown. Could be old blood from implementation even.

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 13:44

Arrr thanks flamingo - now I've just got to keep it a secret from DH for 2 2 weeks so I can tell him on Christmas Day Xmas Smile

Thankfully MrsG, apart from last night I very, very rarely drink so nobody will be expecting me to drink over Christmas anyway Smile

Carlotta82248 · 10/12/2016 13:47

Don't worry about the wine writer, plenty of less crazy dedicated people than us would find out much later and so you're already ahead in the healthy pregnancy game! I'm utterly delighted for you, nice to see happy endings in this torturous game! X

FlaminFlamingo99 · 10/12/2016 13:48

Definitely get a FRER writer I also had mulled wine, smoke salmon and rare steak in the days before my BFP Confused

HellsBells it's hard when you know other people are trying and it almost feels like a race. We are here if you need a rant though! Smile

Carlotta82248 · 10/12/2016 13:49

HellsBells, I feel like everyone in the world will conceive before us too, horrible feeling. Big love x

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 13:51

carlotta - I've not been very dedicated this month as we only DTD once Blush

Carlotta82248 · 10/12/2016 13:53

Only takes one clever little swimmer! My best friend is currently 26/40 from a one shot month Smile

Carlotta82248 · 10/12/2016 13:54

We had a poor effort this month too actually, not helped by my TTC induced sex aversion Shock

FlaminFlamingo99 · 10/12/2016 13:58

Writer I will be v impressed if you can keep a secret until Xmas day, I couldn't have kept it from my DH for half a day let alone that long!! Good luck 🍀

HellsBellsK · 10/12/2016 13:58

Thanks Ladies Flowers
Thank god it's not just me - I was giving out to myself for thinking that way and that I should be just happy about it which I am but feel other emotions also - I do feel like it is a bit of a race now.

Oh Winter that gives me some hope also - we only DTD 3 times this month - I had a virus and wasn't well so I definitely think I am out but you never know I guess.

Carlotta82248 · 10/12/2016 14:02

Fx for us both HellsBells, hope it's 3 times lucky for us both Wink

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 14:08

flamingo - I've spent weeks fantasising about ways to break the news on Christmas Day so now that I may finally have the opportunity makes me want to keep it secret even more Grin

When I found out I was pregnant with DS I rang my DH within 15 seconds and blurted it out down the phone at him Grin

Oggy88 · 10/12/2016 14:12

Yay, Writer!!! That's definitely a super positive test! Those lines look lovely!

Good luck with hiding it from your DH though. I had the same idea, which didn't last long. I told him I had something for him and got him to play 20 questions Grin

His first one was "Is it something I can eat?" Grin

ttcnovice · 10/12/2016 14:16

Can see lines in all of them Writer congratulations!!

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 14:24

Oggy

His first one was "Is it something I can eat?"

My DH's first question would probably be "A blow job?" Grin Grin

Sorry to be crude Grin

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 16:10

I couldn't get one of the good FRER tests so had to settle for the big started First Response so the line still isn't particularly clear but you can't argue with a digital Grin

Writerwannabe83 · 10/12/2016 16:12

That's supposed to say I had to settle for the bog standard First Response test instead of a FRER Grin
