Pretty Chart = Progesterone Supps?

I know taking progesterone can make your chart look promising and then you still get a BFN. 

However, the first 4-5 days I took p4 my chart was relatively normal, then it started spiking and now has my hopes up about it going triphastic.  If the progesterone were going to affect my temps, wouldn't have done it earlier?

If it matters, I'm taking 200mg of prometrium suppositories twice daily.  Last night at 10 DPO I took a test and it was BFN.  I know it's still early.  TIA!

    I find it takes a couple days for my temps to spike after I start my Prometrium, which makes FF think I O'd, even when I probably didn't.

    Don't bother temping while on progesterone. Even if it does go triphasic, it could be b/c of the supplements. Remember, progesterone is what makes your temps go up in the first place.

    Awww, c'mon guys!  I was hoping you would say "Yes, you MUST be pregnant with such a beautiful chart!".  I kinda knew that wouldn't be the answer, so thanks for the reality check.

    I was holding on to hope that since my last few temps were so much higher that it was a good sign, but it sounds like it could just be a delayed temp rise from the p4. 

    Thanks again, ladies!
