Thank you
I over slept this morning (5am!!!) and didn't wake up in time to make my husband's lunch for work, which I promised I would do, so he was running late for work because he thought he could have a bit more sleep.... Because he stayed up late last night with our dogs while I had a very early night. Oops.
After he left I went to the bathroom and dipped a couple of different batch IC. There was a faint line on one. I told myself if there was any sort of line, I would also dip my FRER. So, I did. And the line appeared and it was a little darker than yesterday but not enough for me to trust it. I just keep having "oh, it's an indent" in the back of my mind.
Will post a pic and I'm going to need your honest opinions. I can't let myself believe I'm still in with a shot if there's no chance. Not after years of infertility
I can't do that to my husband, either.

Okay, so here's the pic I took as soon as I dipped the test and the control line appeared:

I then stepped away for 3 minutes and returned to this:

This is yesterday's test (11dpo), along with today's test (12dpo):

Today's line is no mistaking that it's there (more so in person!), I can see it in clear day. The only thing that worries me is how crisp it seems to be, and the fact I'm going back and forth on whether it has colour or not. I've never seen a real BFP in person so not sure how they're truly meant to look.
Please be honest with what you see.

Are you sure it's not too thin and faint for a BFP? I've seen some very convincing indents, etc on FRERs. I never, ever, ever imagined myself getting a BFP so hence all of the doubt... ahhh.

Thank you for the reassurance, and happy 5 weeks to you!
I still have 3 more FRERs and dozens of ICs so will keep testing until I can believe it, and then schedule betas. I am very shocked!

I held all liquids for 4 hours and took another test with SMU, this time from a new box (so different batch) and the line is a little darker again, and I can tell that it's pink! I am starting to believe it's more real now, even if I am still very shocked! Even dipped another cheapie and got another line, and an OPK after all the other tests and it is nearly positive (always wanted to test out whether they do become positive when you're pregnant... oh my. I'M PREGNANT!)
I can't wait until my husband comes home, yesterday when I told him I said I'd planned to keep it a surprised until there was an obvious line, and he said "well, I'm glad you told me because when the line gets darker I will be double surprised!" He was surprised when I told him about the faint lines, because I'd been saying since 9DPO how I thought we were out... I was having AF cramps and a temp drop.
Tonight after I tell him, I think we'll go pick up a couple of digis and try one tomorrow morning... hoping it comes back with 'pregnant', because there is no denying that. AHHHHH!

Clementine - so, so happy for you. I don't even need to zoom in to see those lines. Just a suggestion - buy a ClearBlue Digital with Weeks estimator. It's only a little less sensitive than FRER. The other digis are less sensitive. Just in case - my first digi came back negative. Can't wait to see the digi pic
