If you can hold you news overnight why don't you test in morning and show him I'm sure your line will be easily readable! Have you got any frer left?

Yes, one. Waiting overnight means waiting all day tomorrow because he goes to work at 5 am and doesn't get off until 7pm. The first test I took is completely dry now and apparently the "damage" I thought I did is only apparent when taken apart. The line is still faint on it but easier to see than test 2 at this point for some reason.. prob because the second was only a 3 hr hold. If I tell him tonight... with a warning then I can feel free to show him the test in the morning with no surprises ruined and hopefully a more convincing result. I am a very impatient lady Can you tell?

Can you do your next FRER before he goes to work and leave it for him to find?
I showed DH at 6am as he was leaving for work, I cannot hold a secret
DH at this stage knows what days I'm testing etc and was getting so disappointed I was jumping with excitement and he just deflated with pure relief
I don't think we realize the pressures they feel too in this whole frustrating journey

Probably not He has alarms that start going off at 3:30 am but he doesn't actually get up until like 15-20 mins before he has to be at work. He throws clothes and his boots on grabs a pack of poptarts and is out the door 95% of the time. Every once in a blue moon if I am up and make him breakfast he'll "wake up" to eat, but he isn't really awake, lol. He is awake enough to chew and that is about it lol. I tried to show him the test this morning, but he barely glanced at it because he was in a hurry as usual, and he just asked "well?" as in "so are you?". I'd hate for the surprise to be rushed like that :/ That isn't really a surprise... it's how we have done it every time I have gotten preg... I just showed him the test. Nothing fun about it at all... exciting yes, but not exactly what I am going for, kwim?

ETA: Aww, sounds so sweet the way DH reacted

I have butterflies FOR YOU!!! It'd be SOOO cool for you to get a BFP!! Not only is it great news in its own right but it means, assuming mine is legit (which the more I think about it the more I begin to believe it because, as I told DH when testing for my last preg, I have never had a line that didn't turn into a preg... other than maybe a couple evaps and these look like they have color!) then we get to be DD buddies!! More or less anyway since you are actually a day ahead of me calendar wise... Sending BFP vibes your way!!!!!!!

I have been running through ideas all day. I thought about going to the local screen printing place but called and it is a 3 day turn around... I'll NEVER be able to wait that long, esp considering it'll actually be 4 days because of Sunday! I thought about going with Lauren's suggestion of writing it on a plate and having him discover it when he is done... BUT I love him to death but he isn't the most observant man in the world lol. So I am going with my original idea. I already called the restaurant (we tend to go to a certain place on Thursdays if we have the $$ so no red flags there for hubby) and talked to the owner's wife (who knows hubby from when he used to work on their water softener) and have it all set up. I have the van so when hubby calls to say he is off I am going to pop over there (it is on the way) and drop off a baby bottle. When we get there hubby will order his drink BUT they will be bringing it to him in the bottle!! I am going to be "playing" on my phone, or so he will think (just gotta convince him to sit at a table instead of a booth like we usually do) and then I can record his reaction! I can't wait to see how he reacts and see how long it takes him to put 2 and 2 together. Since he knows her he might think she is playing a joke on him which would make it even more fun! I may share the video here so you all can see his reaction to if it is a good one Good as in worth seeing. I know he'll be happy, that isn't even a question.
