Does My Chart Mean Anything?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
This is my first month charting after TTC for a year. I probably should pick one source and use it for guidance, but I'm way too OCD for that and look at anything I can get my hands on. The fact that different sources so different things has left me VERY confused as to whether my chart is telling me anything or not. Would I consider it triphasic? Is it too late for me to have a BFP at this point? Any help/info you can offer would be great!

Here is my chart

I'm not sure if it's triphasic. Maybe?
How long is your LP normally, do you know?
I don't think getting a BFN at 12 DPO rules out pregnancy at all.
I do know that I'm one of those unlucky people whose temps rise and rise up until the day AF shows. It's a total fake out. You can see how tortured I am in April's chart. LOL. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/1bc90f

I think 12 DPO is too early to give up though, hang in there! Your chart looks great!

Although I haven't charted before this month, I have been doing OPK and my LF was around 10 days. I started taking Vitex and last month the LF was 15 days.
Your chart is torturous! I have read that the triphasic chart clearly indicates pregnancy, then read something else that said it's not really indicitive of anything. I've read that 60% of HPT are positive at 12 DPO, then I read that you should wait for 18 days of high temps before testing. It's just so frustrating to know which sources are reliable, if any.

13dpo my bfp was soooo light it would have been negative (on a FRER!) on 12dpo

As for triphasic, it doesnt necessarily mean anything. I had several triphasic non-pregnancy charts (especially if you live somewhere where it suddenly started getting warmer over the past couple days...)

Cycles with NO shot at pregnancy whatsoever, clearly triphasic (DF was overseas, there was no chance of even an oops!)

For example - http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/...rl/?i=3551927& was nearly triphasic, and DF was in Iraq from 3 months before then until 2 months after
http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/...rl/?i=3518943& was CLEARLY triphasic and DF had left at the beginning of the cycle before that (but that chart is very messed up due to weather problems and air conditioner problems)

It was actually really common for my temp to jump around 10dpo and stay up until the day that AF came.

My pregnant cycle - http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/...rl/?i=3659120&
it jumped at 7dpo rather than 10dpo (after very tight pinching sensations right where an early ultrasound confirmed she implanted at 6dpo)
