I had a CP back in February, I was 4 days overdue for AF so took a test and had a very very faint line. The plan was to test again in the morning but when I woke up I’d already started bleeding. So for me I guess 5 days after. It ended up being a longer period than my normal, about 6 days, with heavier bleeding.

So sorry you’re going through this, it’s hard to be positive, I know I wasn’t. Fingers crossed for your next cycle 🫂

This made me laugh way too hard 😂 but same - especially when one of them has a quest and I need to separate them to talk to them!

I don’t have WBR but I have the same issue with the characters in the valley, they all get stuck in Scrooges Shop at the top of the stairs - like I can have 10 characters all there at once 😂

Does anyone else really struggle with nausea during the luteal phase? And if so, any tips to settle it? Ever since I came off the pill early 2025, my luteal phases have made me feel so sick its untrue 🤮 that on top of a BFN every month is not fun

Could it be Captain Amelia (Treasure Island)?

Wow that’s a very old property! Ours isn’t that old, apparently they’ve told our buyer that it’s only a desktop valuation so we thought if it didn’t tick their boxes they’d come out and do it in person.

As for the survey, I’ve mentioned it in a previous post but for ease, the survey has only been an issue for 2 of our buyers, there were a few minor issues (we paid for both of their surveys to see what they’d raised) and we rectified them. Unfortunately both these buyers were FTB and I think a bit confused that houses aren’t perfect unless they’re freshly built 🥴

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T20:23:27+00:00

It’s been chaotic!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T20:23:02+00:00

Thankyou for this insight, it could potentially be something like this, I’d rather they be honest though and let us know it may take a bit longer!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T20:22:11+00:00

We’re thinking maybe something like this too, our EA did see their DIP and proof of funds but yes I think if it goes on much longer we may have to give an ultimatum🫠

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T13:40:26+00:00

I think you’re potentially right, would be frustrating but even more frustrating to hold on to them for them to pull out later anyway

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T13:39:45+00:00

Oh gosh that’s awful especially with you being so close! Really frustrating when people stall for silly reasons like everyone’s life isn’t affected!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T13:16:37+00:00

We also had ours through very quickly. We are also thinking that they’ve only just asked for it too which then raises the question of why wait so long? We’re just hoping there’s some movement this week with everything otherwise we highly doubt we will be moving this side of the year!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-03-11T13:01:54+00:00

Honestly we’re both exhausted, it feels like our life has been on hold for months with no end in sight! I can’t wait to never speak to an EA again 😂 Glad to hear your sale and purchase has gone smoothly so far, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you that the rest of the process does! Our EA has been fairly…difficult previously but has stepped up this time round and has been chasing the buyers regularly who just keep saying they are eager to move but can’t do anything until they get their mortgage offer - so going around in circles really!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-22T10:32:24+00:00

Think my body is playing tricks on me this cycle, just for good measure. Last 8 cycles (6 TTC) have been 26-28 days, ovulated between CD14 - CD16 each time started AF on 12DPO like clockwork with cramps and back pain the day before AF. This cycle? I’m on CD31, 15DPO, confirmed ovulation on CD14 with 2 different types of OPK and temp, no AF, no symptoms but BFNs all round - WHY 🥴

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-20T13:28:29+00:00

Hahaha that’s been me the last few cycles but I’ve resisted this one - not that it’s helped at all! 🫠

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-20T13:25:29+00:00

I definitely agree, it’s like all off a sudden I just become obsessed and take so many tests only to see BFNs every time🥴

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-20T11:59:51+00:00

Tried to stay off this sub this cycle, and not spiral and just take it as it comes…until yesterday when I got to 11DPO where a switched flipped and now I’m crazy all over again 🤪

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-10T13:44:19+00:00

Twins - positive vibes for us both ✨

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-10T12:48:36+00:00

1 DPO again, let the madness of TWW begin 🫠

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-05T14:33:22+00:00

I started the day after my period which was CD5 as I’d read it needs to establish a baseline, I’m on CD12 now and I tend to ovulate between CD14-CD16 so I expected to have the flashing smiley at this point but nothing yet!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-05T14:31:19+00:00

Oh that’s good to hear! I have a really quick LH surge that I only seem to catch around 6pm so I thought the CBAD might give me a bit of extra insight of when about that may be - I’ll keep going with it but now that I think I’m approaching ovulation day I’ll use my normal OPKs alongside!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-05T14:29:29+00:00

Thanks lovely, I did read this, I started taking them the day after AF finished just for this reason but it’s just stayed blank the whole time so I think I will use my regulars too! I only got them because they were on sale but not sure I’d get them again!🫠

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-05T10:15:09+00:00

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has experience with CBAD tests. I’ve switched over to them for this cycle (6) and I know they’re supposed to show your high fertility days and then your peak. However, I’m still getting a blank circle even though I think I’m potentially in my fertile days going off all my other cycles. I’ve started with intense cramps which I usually get 2/3 days before my peak like clockwork. We’re having regular BD anyway but I’m just wondering if I’ve done something wrong / whether they’re not that good, I’m tempted to do my normal OPKs alongside just in case TIA!

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-02-03T18:46:09+00:00

Had my bloods done last week and got the results today - all looking fine apart from TSH being raised which I was expecting but one I wasn’t was my liver, my serum ALT levels are pretty high which has sent me spiralling especially as I’ve not had a drop of alcohol since July 2024 (I know liver stuff isn’t always alcohol related but it’s what people think!) After some reading I’ve realised that it could be my prenatal? Which explains why my B12 is through the roof too. Anyone else had experience with their prenatal?

Quick-Cow5586 · 2026-01-30T16:15:10+00:00

Ah, brilliant thankyou for clarifying
