What are my chances of conceiving this month?

Okay, so this is mine and my husbands forth month of TTC our second child. We got pregnant in May, but unfortunately had an early miscarriage:( So now that we are trying to conceive again, I am back to my regular 30 day cycles and for the first 3 months, nothing was really planned out. We had sex when we could fit it in, and that was that. After getting my period on October 6, I put my hands up and said screw this, I'm buying and OPK. Lol I was so sick and tired of not getting pregnant and getting my period. Well throughout this whole month, my husband and I have had a boat load of sex. Probably because I had a 6 day weekend off of work, so I was home to have sex with him. We had sex on the 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22, and 23. I got positive LH surge on 21 at around 12. We had sex at 1 PM, before I had to leave for work. That evening at work, I felt a strong cramping sensation on my right side lower abdomen, and it made me wonder if that might have been ovualtion and the egg releasing. I wasn't sure, but since my husband was sleeping when I got home, we waited til the morning, around 10 AM to have sex again, and then had sex on 23 in the afternoon kind of as our last dithc effort for this month, since after that, all we can do is wait and see what happens. If I ovulated on the 21, I would be 7DPO right now, and 6DPO if I ovulated on the 22. Today, I woke up feeling generally normal, except I was having shooting pains in my breasts. I didn't touch them at all, and wasn't wearing a bra, and they just started aching. It's not constant though, and they aren't very tender right now, but now I'm just driving myself insane. Do you think with the amount of sex we had and the timing of it, that we stand a good chance of getting pregnant this cycle? Thank you ladies!!

**I just want to add right off the bat, that my husband has a high sperm count, so having sex daily isn't going to affect our odds, so please don't talk about how having sex everyday can hurt my odds of conceiving. And also, I know there is only a 25% chance each month, but I don't really believe that. My first was conceived in 3 months, and our 2nd that we miscarried was conceived the first month. So I don't really believe in that stastic, because everyone is different. Thanks!!
