Trying to Get Pregnant

BFP!!!!

I am in shock right now as we thought it would take us longer to get pregnant and this is our first cycle TTC. Yesterday, at 15dpo, I had 3 tests with faint lines (2 wonfos, 1 FRER) and then a negative digi- all with FMU. My DH is known for his impatience and anxiety when things are unknown so he urged me to go to the dr since I had the day off. Negative urine test yesterday afternoon at the dr- not FMU. I insisted on a blood test, results came back this morning positive!
EDD- October 28th 2012
What we did different: Nothing different since it was our first cycle. We BD on O-1 and O, used OPKs, and I temped to confirm O. Despite the advice of those on the board, we did not use PreSeed, but used Pure Romance Just Like Me Lube which is PH balanced. My friend is a consultant and assured me it was safe for sperm and it worked for us.
Symptoms: At 10dpo-12dpo I woke up each night drenched in sweat and having to pee. I had a cold so I assumed that maybe I was running a low fever- apparently I was KU! On Saturday morning I was really sad and crying to DH because I thought AF was coming because of cramps and bloating. Tender breasts are always a PMS symptom for me, but instead of getting less sore closer to AF they increased in tenderness and size. My bras that were a little snug before, I am now starting to spill out over the top. I have had a headache for the last few days and have been extremely tired.
Thank you to all of you ladies so much for your support and willingness to share information! I would have been one of those clueless ladies TTC, full of misinformation, if it weren't for all of you. I am hopeful that I will be seeing some of you in 1st tri soon!
Thanks again!!!

I was just wondering low high your level was since you had a combo of positive and negative tests. I remember having a squinter and a positive digi, and my beta was 61 two days later...so it was pretty low when I tested!
