This is my first month charting, and I am looking for a little reassurance. FF says it is a possible triphasic, but I'm so afraid to test and get a BFN. Should I wait until I am late to test, or should I bite the bullet and test earlier? Thanks in advance ladies!

I'd wait.  Not everyone even gets an early BFP...me, for instance.  I never get a BFP until 15-16dpo, even with very STRONG pregnancy symptoms overtaking my body!  I'm not entirely convinced about your O day either...usually you O the day after your most fertile cm day, which would be cd12, and then your temps stay low for quite a while.  Not every triphasic chart ends in a BFP, so try to be patient as long as you can!  And good luck!

Oh, since this is your first cycle, I'll repeat the basics.  Make sure you temp at the same time every morning, using a BBT thermometer (NOT a regular fever thermometer) to have the most accurate chart.
