Ecstatic that I finally get to post here! Woot! 
I have been TTC #2 for 14 very long months. Three months ago I had a lap and dye, and afterwards got the all clear from my FS. DH and I were taking a break from any further medical 'help' when I got this wonderful BFP!
So this is what I did differently this cycle:
I used pre-seed for the first time this cycle and switched to decaf. I also worked on reducing my stress and anxiety levels and took the pressure off myself by being OK with whatever the outcome would be. I tried to give up temping, but ended up doing enough to know when I ov'd! On the superstitious side, I sat in a pg womans chair! haha! And I have birds nesting under my patio for the first time ever!
I also had a feeling that this was the month - not sure how or why, just did! I think this feeling kept me calm and happy!
My symptoms:
CD12 - DH flew home - BD using pre-seed
CD13 - BD am and pm using pre-seed
CD14 - Ov day - BD am using pre-seed - DH flew out - CP SHOW
1-6 dpo - Gassy, Cm mostly sticky/tacky but saw small amounts of white clumpy/lotiony cm on occasion , noticed nails were getting long and strong, CP stayed high and medium, BBs tender on and off (but not any different than post ov), started feeling bloated by the end of the first week, my mood was really happy and calm!
7dpo - noticed small amounts of creamy cm every time I wiped, felt really dizzy and light-headed at work, very gassy!, noticed a big clump of white cm after work (first big clue!), BBs throbbed a bit on and off, really hungry, slight headache, really tired at night (not pg tired yet though)
8dpo - noticed small amounts of creamy cm everytime I wiped, cp high, faint BFP at 4pm!!! Woo hoo!!! Really tired but have insomnia at night
9dpo - nearly fainted 3 times at work, really dizzy and vague, super hungry, getting tired in the middle of the day, much darker BFP after work!!! Double woot! insomnia again
10dpo - still dizzy and vague, super hungry, and really tired in the middle of the day. HPT darker still - almost as dark as the control line!!!
11dpo - really hungry and really tired in the middle of the day BFP
12dpo (today!) - did a digital HPT - Pregnant 1-2weeks!!! Right on schedule! Over the moon!!
Looking back all the symptoms were there, but nothing was obvious to me until about 7-8dpo. I was seriously not expecting to see a line at 8dpo!
I have 2 more HPTs left to use up, going to wait until Monday when AF would've been due as I want one as dark or darker than the control line to keep!
Good luck and babydust to everyone out there TTC!
