Still can't believe it...(BFP warning)

This is to follow up on my posts in TWW for 3/30. Thank you to all the above for their well wishes! I was 16 dpo during the posting and was debating on testing either the same day or wait until 18dpo since I knew that my lp was around 16 days. I waited until 18 dpo and since I've had trouble sleeping for a few days, woke up early, and took the FRER test. OMG! Two lines showed up, one was pretty faint so I thought maybe it was a random blip but when I searched online, I realized that the faint line was the control line and the dark line was the test line!
As I mentioned before, what really makes this special to me is that our wedding anniversary was this weekend. I was totally not expecting this since we've been trying for a few months and it was the first month I was trying OPK tests. I went out and bought additional tests (since I only had one left that I already used) the night before, and also bought some baby booties (just in case) - I was going to use them to surprise DH if I did get a BFP or just hold onto them if I got a BFN. I still can't believe it's BFP.
I surprised DH with everything the day of our anniversary and he was super duper surprised as well. I didn't tell him in words, I just let him open his "gifts". Their was a lot of weird looks until he also unwrapped the pee test. I don't know if it's completely hit us fully yet (although, I'm reading like crazy now)!
I need to get into contact with the gyno/ob or personal physician to figure out our next steps.
Thank you again all for the luck! Good luck to everyone else here!

On a random note, I tried calling the doctor to schedule an appt but they said that I have to at least wait until I'm 8 weeks along before they'll see me. DH and I wanted to see the doctor sooner since we're supposed to go on a cruise in 2 weeks. They've scheduled me for the doctor after we get back. I hope the delay is ok. Not sure if traveling is ok or not or if there are definite no-no's etc. I've read a lot (and it scares me).
Anyways, thanks again everyone!
