s/o: first thought when you got your BFP

tbb710 · November 2009

what went through your head when you got your BFP?

Me: All i could do was cry. I had wanted to see two lines for what seemed like a lifetime, and there they were!

MattsWifey<3 · November 2009

love the siggy pic

with DD it was pure excitement and joy! with this one... um.... my initial reaction was no fing way. lol. still happy, just shocked (clearly not that shocked since we were doing it unprotected). just happened so fast.

Hmmm well DH was in the bathroom with me & he saw it come up pregnant 1st. So he said, bubby. I turned & saw it. I was just excited. Nothing more nothing less.

engaged678 · November 2009

awww crap. It was great, but bittersweet! I was so excited.

We had just decided to stop trying for a few months.

DH had just had hernia surgery, was being laid off, we sold our house and had to buy a new one in 15 days.

there it was... my very obvious BFP

I still get butterflies when I see the pics of it : )

DH and I looked at it together and I said "Huh, well, there it is" and then sat down and watched TV for a bit. A couple of minutes later, I picked up the test again and looked at it and then put it down and turned to the TV again. It went on like this for a while. Yes, you could say I was a little stunned!

The first thing I did was go sit on the floor by my bed and cry. DS was a surprise and I was a bit shocked. But I pulled it together and then was happy.

When I told DH, his first words were "Are you kidding?" I was like, I'm holding a pregnancy test that shows I'm not kidding!!

TheNerdyKatie · November 2009

Pure panic. I was so out of my mind that when the doc asked me what I knew about pregnancy I told her I had seen Juno & Knocked Up. And then I got really excited.

Smores730 · November 2009

My first thought was finally! and then I was scared to be happy because it was a faint line and I wanted to retest the next day before I got too excited.

J+O · November 2009

Probably every emotion wrapped into one. Scared, happy, shocked you get the idea. I don't think I've ever felt so much at one time in my life.

Califlorida · November 2009

1st time: holy hell, what did we just do?

2nd time: holy hell, what did we just do?

KristinKD · November 2009

This time: "I was right!"

Last time: "How is that possible?!" but with a smile on my face.
(I was seeing an RE and got what I thought was my period along with a BFN only to find out in his office two weeks later that my supposedly CD14 u/s showed I was actually pregnant.)

inbetweendreams · November 2009

Oh.My.Gosh. was pretty much my first thought. We had been trying, but I was still shocked that it happened. I was shocked, excited and nervous all at the same time. Hard to believe the LO in my sig came from that moment.

CelticWife · November 2009

Me: Oh crap! I've got to get this thing back out in 9 months. Oh crap oh crap oh crap.

I was on the Nuvaring and DS decided he was coming several years earlier then planned, lol.

GabbyG · November 2009

I think I said "holy sh*t." I'd just found out a dear friend was killed the night before. I wasn't ready for any sort of emotional upswing yet. By the time I saw it on the digital a few days later, the day of her memorial, I was quite ready for an emotional upswing!

carolinag · November 2009

holy shiit!!! this can't be real can it?!?

we weren't actively trying, but weren't preventing. i was in total shock. i also then ran to the bump to see how common false positives were before i let myself get excited.

adri77 · November 2009

With DS1, I was soooo excited and shaking. It took 5 months with him, not long in the grand scheme. With DS2, it happened the first month. I literally said "holy sh!it" and was shaking with NERVES!!!!

cecig · November 2009

I thought "holy crap!" and then grinned from ear to ear. I was home alone so the first person I told was the dog

Temp856430000003146 · November 2009

That the test was malfunctioning and I was NOT seeing a + sign.

Then, "Oh sh!t!!" But in a good way ... .

J&A2008 · November 2009

Shock. I wrapped it in t.p. and threw it away.

LoriFalce · November 2009

I was so prepared for them to be a negative again, I was kind of confused when there were two lines. I thought I must have done something wrong.

Gin*In*TN · November 2009

With DD: I screamed a few curse words and stood there frozen in fear.

With this one: I was stunned but handled it better than the first one.

AEK&BGT · November 2009

"I knew he lied!"....j/k! I cried because I felt bad for DD#1.

ladeebri · November 2009

DS was a total unplanned surprise.

I just bawled. For days. I cant pin point a single thought, just really really scared.

silvahalo · November 2009

"No Way!? On the first try? No Way! Ok, here we go."

flygeah · November 2009

Califlorida:

1st time: holy hell, what did we just do?

2nd time: holy hell, what did we just do?

This exactly....

Mrs. S Wilson · November 2009

With DS total shock then pure joy! We had been trying for 6 months and the month I conceived we were trying very hard not to because I was on medication that was contraindicated in pregnancy. This time around I can't say I was too surprised because we weren't trying but we weren't not trying either so.... Again total excitement and my DH was in total shock and denial but he is very excited.

LaLaSweets · November 2009

I remember vividly. I said "Oh My God! It worked"! hahaha

Jeremy'sMom · November 2009

I just kept pacing up and down rubbing my stomach saying "I love you" over and over. Lol.

earthboundmisfit · November 2009

probably "oh $h1t". DD was a total suprise and I was pretty upset for a while. I didn't really accept the pregnancy until a few weeks later when I started spotting and then I was so scared to lose it...that's probably the day that I first fell in love with my baby.

alheystek · November 2009

I was so excited/scared/nervous when I got the BFP with DS. It was our first month trying and I really didn't expect it.

With this latest BFP, I was shocked. I just took a test 2 weeks ago that was negative. I was expecting to see the same this time. I took a picture of it to send to DH and it was blurry because I was shaking so bad.

Mikeysbride2b · November 2009

1st pg- FINALLY!

2nd- NO WAY! THAT FAST??? I was shocked!

libby73 · November 2009

DS was a surprise so you can imagine the shock I felt as well as relief. I was loosing weight, could not get enough to sleep, and felt sick all the time; I was convinced I was dying again because we were not ttc. I was in such shock I took 6 different test to prove it to myself, dh still was not convinced until he saw the u/s lol.

*Bre* · November 2009

"I'm fvcked--I haven't been eating folic acid!" I always read in the OB office about the importance of folic acid...

I was in a very bad place at that time--on the pill and using condoms, in the process of divorcing abusive XH (we had been separated for a long time, but I was still emotionally controlled), applying to graduate school, trying to finish my B.A., DB (now DH) handled it much better than I did.

Ravings Rabbids · November 2009

#1: Freaked out and excited because my ex husband and I were in the middle of planning our wedding. Those plans quickly changed.

#2: Freaked out and literally plopped down on the floor sobbing. My husband came home a few minutes later and saw me crying to hard that I couldn't even speak, I just pointed to the test. He was so excited and then said he thought someone in my family died from the way I was acting. I cried like crazy for a good hour because we had been recently told we wouldn't be able to conceive naturally and would have to go via IVF, which we couldn't afford. Complete and total surprise (and I only took a test because I felt like crap and couldn't figure out why). I was really happy, but beyond shocked!
