I think the survey form lost a couple of my answers. So here goes:
Any relevant attempt details: I didn’t use OPKs as they stressed me out, so going on ovulation symptoms and baby gestation I think we had one attempt on or 1 day before ovulation. We had another attempt 4 days later on e4d but it looks like that was too late.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I was stressed leading up to attempt time, I had also been on holiday and had a few cheats that week, and I was half tempted not to make an attempt. But I reasoned that some random midcycle spotting I had experienced just that month was possibly pink-friendly so I left it to fate and we had the attempt.

I should also mention that Atomic was amazing throughout the eight months and I really recommend a purchased plan. Atomic gave me a lot of individual advice and reassurance at times when I wasn’t sure about things or worried about erratic ovulation or cycle symptoms.

Other diet info: DH only drank soy milk for about five months leading up to BFP. I also delayed breakfast most days until 9.30/10am (my children get up at 5.30/6am so I was very hungry by 9.30/10am). I eliminated snacking almost entirely which was a big change for me. I used to snack a lot. If I felt tired on the diet I would sometimes have a snack of a rye cracker with peanut butter but tried very hard to cut back. I got used to it over time and just made the most of my three meals a day.
