Triphastic charting...??

Mon, 10-06-2003 - 11:57am
Hey ladies! I just read about some triphastic phasing or something like that. I'm looking at my chart, and not sure if this is what the triphastic phase is suppose to look like. I read that it can be a good sign of PG as long as the temps stay up and don't drop. Is that correct?? Here is my chart. What do y'all think??

Thanks a bunch!

That DEFINITELY looks like a triphasic chart! I think that you only get a triphasic chart if you are pg! I have never gotten a triphasic chart...havent got a bfp yet, either. That looks like a VERY good sign!!!! When do you plan to test?

That really sounds great! I hope you are right. The only problem is that I tested this AM and got a nasty BFN. However, it is 11 DPO, and technically still early. (Hoping that doesn't sounds like I'm too dreamy about this). I plan to wait another couple of days before I test again. AF is due Weds. I believe. So, if I don't get it, then I'll test again. Thank you for that positive and quick feedback.

What kind of symptoms are you having? Don't worry, I am an obsessive tester too! I am trying to be good and wait until Thurs til I test again, but it's hard when that is all I think about!! Keep me posted!

Yep...if I had a heap of money, I'd test everyday! -lol-

So far, I've only had mild cramping, tender bb's (but that happens before AF, too), increased heartburn...well, I guess that's it. I'll keep you posted on any more results. You'll have to do the same for me, k? What kind of symptoms are you having??

I've had a lot of symptoms, but those could be premenstral, too. Nausea, headaches, cramping, lower back ache, pee all the time and leg cramps. BBs hurt alot yesterday, but not bad today. Im on CD24, 13dpo(I think). Tested this AM, but another BFN. Tired, too. It seems different from my regular pms stuff, but this could just be wishful thinking?

Hopefully this isn't just all in my head!! This waiting is just torture!

Keep me posted on what goes on with you, too, OK?

Lots of luck and ***baby dust*** to all of us!

Yes, I have to admit it...I think that there is some wishful thinking involved. But hey, they're good wishes! :-) I just really hope that both of us find something out soon. I forgot about the lower back pain I had been having and fatigue. That all seemed to pass by after a few days, but it did come with most of the intense...ok not that strong but annoying cramping. But, that hasn't happened for a few days now. Maybe that was implantation w/o bleeding?? I have no idea. Bled w/my first. Anyway, I'd better run. Have a great day tomorrow and try not to worry too much. We'll get our answers soon enough, and hopefully it'll be what we're wanting.

You had implantation bleeding with your first? What was it like and how long did it last? Today I noticed some brown spotting , now tonite there was some light pink spotting in what looked like EWCM. I am CD25, 14dpo...would this be the right time for implantation spotting or just AF coming early????? I guess I will find out tomorrow if the spotting turns to bleeding :(

Lots of hope, spirit and mounds of baby dust***********

Kylie,

When I had implantation bleeding w/my first, I thought it was AF. -l- I went to the bathroom one morning, and keep in mind she was a surprise baby, but when I cleaned, there was a smear of blood on the tp. I usually spot for the first day, so I thought that was weird but didn't look into it any further. I just grabbed a tampon and put it on. Later when I went to bathroom again, I noticed on the tampon there was brown blood, but very sparse. When I cleaned, there was nothing. So, that's when I knew something was up. A week later I tested and got a BFP right off the bat. I remember cramping like I was about to get AF before I seen the blood. But anyway...that's really about it. Hopefully this is what is happening to you. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Well, gotta get ready for work. GL and have a great day!

Christie-

Well, I broke down and tested again this morning, still BFN. So depressing. Haven't had any more spotting since that brown stuff last night...still keeping my fingers crossed. Still cramping like AF is coming...starting to lose hope. Its only CD 25, but I think 14dpo, so I would think I would see a faint line on the EPT if I was pg. I almost wish I would get AF so the waiting would be over, but I think I would cry if I did!!! Both my previous pregs were surprises, so I don't remember how I was feeling early on. This is ttc#1 with DH (2nd marriage for each of us) and we have been trying for a year. The odds are against us, since DH has had 2 vas reversals (1st one Sept 02 failed, 2nd done Aug 03) and I am 35 so my clock is really ticking. I feel like I am running out of time!!! Don't even know if 2nd reversal worked this time, not supposed to do analysis for 3 months - so I am hoping beyond hope! I don't do BBT charting, because I am a nurse at a hospital and work varying day/night shifts, so can't take temp at the same time every day. So just do the CM checking, so not entirely sure when I o'd this month, but I think it was a little early. Technically AF not due til 10-9, but I think I am 2wks post o today (I had a definite sharp pain in my ovary after two days of EWCM). Anyway, sorry about rambling on like that, but it helps to get it all out sometimes! Thanks for listening!!!

ps. I read up last night on triphasic charting, and apparently it ONLY occurs with pregnancy, so I bet you are PG!!! Let me know what happens!

Heaps of baby dust~~~~~

Hey ramble on, Kylie! That's what all of us are here for. We're like one big support group. I didn't know about your DH. That may put a damper on things, but I've heard of some pretty strange things happening to people who thought that they fixed themselves only to be surprised by a pregnancy. I guess what I am saying is not to give up hope. I know it is hard...trust me. I lost my first baby at about 4 weeks. I was so depressed. It took about 6 months before I got pg again. Everyday I cried and prayed. You just have to hang in there. -s- I am hoping that the spotting you had was implantation. Have you spotted anymore since then? If not, that could be a very good sign. Like I said earlier, it was a week or maybe a little over a week after I had spotting with DD that I tested positive. You just never can tell about these things. In any case, I really wish you the best. I'm keeping everything I can crossed...even my eyes, and that makes for some funny typing!! -hehe- If you need to vent or anything else, just email me. I won't mind one bit! -s- Oh, today I had something very strange. Wondering if you've heard of it or have had it before. I have been feeling some numb cramping today, and then I got some "stabbing like pains" that felt like they were in the vacinity of my vagina. Well, afterwards, I went to the bathroom 'cause I felt something and though AF had shown. Anyway, when I went to clean (this is kinda gross, but being a nurse you should be alright -s-), I had a wad of EWCM. It looked kinda like a pinkish yellowish color. Couldn't really tell and didn't want to stay in the bathroom studying it...especially at work. I have no idea what that was. Has that happened to you before?? Maybe that was a sign that AF is going to rear her ugly face in the next few days?? Anyway...better run. Hope you have a nice evening...and try to relax! -s-

Take care...

Christie
