I got it! (BFP)

Finally on cycle #10, TTCAL cycle #4, at 8 DPO I got my BFP!

I decided to test early this cycle just because I had 60 HPTs. I started testing at 6 DPO. Obviously at 6 and 7 DPO, there was nothing, but at 8 DPO. I thought I saw a line maybe?

I bought a FRER and after work I tested again. Suuuuper faint line, but there. Tested with a second FRER this morning and the line is completely visible without squinting.

Here it is:

What we did differently: I took soy isoflavones again, 200mg on CD 1-5. We had a bit more sex, specifically on O day.

How I plan on telling DH: On Christmas, I'm going to give him a gift bag that says "Special Delivery from the North Pole". In the bag will be a baby sleeper that says "Mommy's Gift". Also, I've always wanted an ornament of a pregnant lady for my Christmas tree but I've never been pregnant on Christmas. This time I am, so I bought it! On it is written "I got my Christmas wish. Arriving Aug 2012." Lastly, if he hasn't "gotten it" by then, there will also be a photo of a digi that says "Pregnant".

Due Date: my EDD is Sept 2, 2012 but I am diabetic and they will not let me go past August 22. And with my previous history, I'll likely deliver around August 5-10.

Thanks everyone for letting me get to know you!

PS. If any of you know me IRL or are on FB, no mentioning it please. We are not telling people until 13 weeks (if my body can hide it until then). Due to the extremely negative reactions I got last time after my m/c (i.e. "Don't tell us again until it's REAL."), we just don't want to go through that again.

ETA: Symptoms: I actually did have symptoms yesterday afternoon. With a huge headache, I also could barely function at work because of nausea. (I had morning sickness with both my kids until delivery day.) Also, if you look in my chart, you'll see I was nauseous for the earlier part of my 2ww. I know you can't get pregnancy symptoms at that point, but the only other time that happened was with DS's cycle. I wonder if the body is reacting to some hormone in the earlier part of the 2ww after fertilization occured, which caused me to be nauseous.
