I would wait until at least tomorrow to test, though, just because early faint lines can be so anxiety-inducing.</p> <p>As for the symptoms... Without a positive test, they could be something or nothing.</p> <p>I feel you, though - the two week wait is so hard! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quadriphonic-chart-and-symptoms#post-2654343 Fri, 18 Nov 2016 11:48:05 +0000 DaniNae 2654343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just thought I would share my experiences. When I was pregnant with #2, I didn't chart, but I tested at 13DPO and it was BFN. I thought for sure I was out, but when AF never came, sure enough I tested again and BFP! </p> <p>With baby #3 I was charting and had a triphasic chart. I had seen people have them and end up not being preggo, so I didn't get too excited, but turns out in my case, it did indicate pregnancy. </p> <p>That said, symptom spotting is a double edged sword, because AF symptoms mimic early pregnancy symptoms. </p> <p>If I were you I would just get a bunch of cheapie dollar store tests and test each morning. I'm also a chronic early tester because I'm super impatient! GL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quadriphonic-chart-and-symptoms#post-2626231 Fri, 23 Sep 2016 05:38:59 +0000 SweetiePie 2626231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think 8dpo is too early. I got all of my bfps around 8dpo (8 twice and 9 once). I would test if I were you. But I'm a chronic early tester, many would say to wait.<br /> Your chart looks promising. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quadriphonic-chart-and-symptoms#post-2626178 Thu, 22 Sep 2016 23:07:42 +0000 sapphire 2626178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't read through all this, and symptoms tend to be rather unreliable esp that early, but your temperature rise looks promising. No way to know except to give it a few more days and test... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quadriphonic-chart-and-symptoms#post-2626121 Thu, 22 Sep 2016 22:02:36 +0000 humblestumble 2626121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, this is our fifth month trying to conceive. I have a strange looking chart. Trying not to get my hopes up, but everyone around me is pretty much telling me that I am pregnant. This just made it stranger. I know it is not technically "quadriphasic" if that is even a thing, but it's interesting, nonetheless.</p> <p>Attached is my FF chart and it shocked me today when my temps went up AGAIN. I'm only 8DPO, so I know anything is possible, but it is improbable that I have already had implantation - IF I am pregnant. I also find it odd that my temps are so flat this time. They were very rocky before. I always temp at the same day, every day. One day in the middle of the week, i tested my arm just to see if the thermometer was broken - stuck on one number, and NOPE! It works.</p> <p>The TWW is so difficult, right?! I usually don't know my period is coming until the DAY of it. I usually only have 11DPOs, so we'll see. I am not taking an early pregnancy test. (took one that wasn't an early test and it was negative. Go figure. That was dumb of me.) I plan to test on Sunday or Monday. </p> <p>My symptoms, which I am kind of hesitant to call signs at this point, but they ARE getting stronger:</p> <p>light headedness (HOWEVER - I have fainted a LOT in my life. Already talked to doctors about it. It's "normal" for me. The difference is that I haven't felt like this in a LONG time - and usually there are more unpleasant signs to go along with my fainting spells.)<br /> Strong smelling urine (TMI, but this was only one day and I had not eaten asparagus - just strange)<br /> hot flashes at night (I am always cold, especially at night. but my face has been flush for about 3 nights)<br /> No appetite, I don't feel like cooking. (I actually enjoy cooking and have been meal prepping for a while. Nothing seems appetizing to me, but I eat because I have to. Did I mention that I also love eating good tasting food usually? Lol, who doesn't?)<br /> I have been ravenously hungry at night - with no appetite. My stomach growls even after I have dinner. (I just think this is really strange, and WTF? I don't really want to have a second dinner. I am eating enough calories for myself.)<br /> Sore nipples - Have had sore nipples since O. I usually just have sore nipples (maybe) two days out of a cycle. I haven't had them in a few months. Nothing excruiciating, so I am just thinking I am "back on track"<br /> I had a pain on the side of my boob (really my rib cage - I have A cups, ok? LOL) one day. That has never happened to me. Could be anything though. Tight muscle perhaps?<br /> Mood swings - but I tend to have these pre and during AF. This time, it's already lasted 5 days instead of the usual 2.<br /> Okay, so also, I have acid reflux and headaches - two things I never get. I have had a sour stomach for two days and last night it was hard to sleep due to reflux feeling. The first night I felt that, I actually felt like I was going to have to go to the bathroom. VERY unexpected.<br /> Lost 3 pounds in a month - I am only 5'1" and started out this month at 115lbs. (Yes, I want to maintain and possibly get to 110 for my petite frame, but it took me MONTHS to go from 125 to 115. about .25-.5 pounds lost per month WITH effort. This month, I have been a bump on a log due to work and night school. Again, WTF? Eating about the same amount of food. I log my food in myfitnesspal.com everyday - for two years actually.)<br /> So, here I am wondering if I am just getting sick and my temperature is just rising and my body is doing weird things pre AF, or if this could be our month.</p> <p>My husband threw up twice today and he is NEVER sick. EVER. I don't think I have EVER known him to throw up in the 6 years I have known him. Then I read about some weird syndrome some men have when TTC, or when their wife is pregnant and they feel similar symptoms. Odd. I didn't believe it and then a few family members enthusiastically confirmed that men can get sick too. WTF?</p> <p>Just wanted to share all of this. I'm patiently waiting now for the weekend and curious about it all. I am not as excited or hopeful as when we first started TTC. I just keep track of every little "different" thing now. I've already had false hopes a couple of times, so now I'm just doubtful of everything and analyzing it. </p> <p>The thing that throws me off is everyone else telling me I am pregnant. I don't want to accept it. I thought I was before and was wrong. The minute I told people I was dizzy, 5 family members said "You're pregnant!" When I told my best friend my "symptoms," she also said it sounded like it. Ugh. Everytime something is different for me, I always think "but it could be due to something else." I talked to my boss today who had to try REALLY hard to conceive, and she said when she was pregnant with one of her kids, she noticed signs at 6DPO, but she had told me that my signs are really early. She was doubtful, but said I am not out yet. She advised to wait to test and see what happens.</p> <p>I'm a bit off topic... the TWW will do that, I suppose. Has anyone ever seen a quadriphasic temperature chart?</p> <p>[attach=7674/16/odxsgc.499x600.b_G3Ndxi.png] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415655 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 11:59:16 +0000 Bubbles 2415655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: wow at 80f I would be literally sweating.

I could probably turn the heat off in the entire apartment actually.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415156 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 20:05:45 +0000 Mrs. Turtle 2415156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>70 when we're home and just sitting around. I try to turn it down or off when we're actively cleaning or something. We always switch it off when we leave and when we sleep, unless the outside temps are below zero, in which case sometimes I set it to maybe 60 at night. </p> <p>That said, I'd have it way higher if we didn't have to pay for kerosene! If/when we get a wood stove, our house will definitely be warmer than 70. We are both cold all the time in the winter, even with slippers, sweaters and often blankets over us. </p> <p>We are lucky, though, that we have a very small, well insulated house. We have a monitor heater and the coldest I've ever seen the house, even after a full day or night with the heat completely off, was 58. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415151 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 20:01:28 +0000 coopsmama 2415151@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Between 70 and 72.

I could never! We live in a very cold climate and like it warm indoors. I will say we are fortunate to have solar heating, so the cost is very low. Also, it is in-floor heating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415135 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 19:39:34 +0000 Veggiemama 2415135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MediaNaranja: I am with you, we keep it at 66-67 during the day and down to 63 at night! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415129 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 19:34:39 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2415129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: one benefit of apartment living ;) at our last place we only paid about $50-$60 on the coldest months. In our new apartment, heat is an included utility! </p> <p>We keep ours around 70! We'd keep it cooler if we had a larger house to heat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter/page/2#post-2415126 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 19:31:27 +0000 jape14 2415126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We keep it at 68 during the day and 66 at night. We have a gas fireplace that we use when we're home during the day to heat our main living area. Our LO's room gets warmer than ours so that's why we keep it colder upstairs at night - he runs warm, we have a space heater in our room, and our dog sleeps in our bed to keep us warm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter#post-2415112 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 19:16:42 +0000 Synchronicity 2415112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>21 degrees, which is 70F I think.

Any higher would cost too much. The people who lived here before us kept it at 74 in the winter and their electric bill was over 2x what ours is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter#post-2415097 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 19:01:55 +0000 regberadaisy 2415097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>65! I don't even want to know some of your heating bills! 😮 This is high for us because we have kids. I feel like our home is usually pretty decently warm. I always put socks and sweatshirts on. On really cold days we have he advantage of a wood burning fireplace. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter#post-2415093 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 18:59:58 +0000 erinbaderin 2415093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mostly 68, and I'll bump it up to 70 if I get cold, or use a blanket. It does down to 64 at night and we have a heater in B's room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/temperature-in-the-winter#post-2415084 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 18:39:24 +0000 CRGmama 2415084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>68 at night, 70-71 in the morning/evenings.
