Welcome to the ttc in fall group..........AUTUMN ACORNS!!!!

[mouse_chicky]

OMG, this thread goes so fast I just can't keep up!! I've been off a few days as my mum got married- amazing weekend! Congrats Mrs Gibo and Tyler85 for taking the next steps

Confession time...last week I got another reading to see if it matched my previous 2 from March/April... I got those before I had a TTC date and Psychic star said boy in september, Gail was a load of rubbish... Since then we've set a TTC date of September (not influenced by Star!! Forgot about the reading until last week!!) Jenny Renny's came through this morning and also says a boy with BFP in September...!! AND we'll be on holiday in September and I'm likely to be fertile then if my cycles remain constant...

I'm so excited (and also very nervous!!)

Congrats to your mom! I think there's a September bfp in your future.

hi ladies,
i feel a little mortified - i have been so bad at catching up!!! I haven't had the computer on at all this weekend.....

Basically Thursday lunchtime my boys finished nursery for the summer (OMG!!! LOL); Friday we spent seeing 2 of my sisters, Friday night was my birthday tea (i turned 29 on Saturday) - which was super, my MIL made a yummy victoria sponge filled wtih cream and fresh strawberries - so good. Saturday I spent my whole day BY MYSELF in Edinburgh - it was AWESOME!!! I have burnt and blistered shoulder as a result - i never get burnt - odd huh? Yesterday I got some alone time with my OH - not that kind of alone time LOL..... just some nice relaxing. Today she is back at work and the kids are already doing my brain in - I'm sick of the sound of my own name haha!!!!

It sounds like you had a lovely weekend. A day to yourself? Cool!

I found this! A Hello Kitty Disaster Kit It made me giggle!

cute! pichi needs to see this!

Hey girls! I hope everyone had a fab weekend... ours has been super busy! BBQ and fireworks and swimming - I'm pooped!

Happy 4th of July! We're going on a picnic later, just me, dh, and baby. Good times with KFC.

hi girls, hope everyone is good

Having my implant removed on Wednesday

Yay!

Happy Independence Day to all our US Girls

Calling all ladies who are good with charting!!! So I'm on my first "cycle" with charting. The 19th was my first spotting since stopping BCP but so far all I've done is spot for 10 days! I thought a normal AF had returned on the 30th but I was wrong I started temping and have had a rise on CD 14-16. With watery CM on CD 15. FF is saying yesterday and today were fertile days but it hasn't predicted ovulation yet. I should add I had a very faint line on my OPK on CD 15. I know that's not a positive but it was something maybe? Well anyways here is my chart. Do you think it's possible I o'd this cycle? Any opinions/advice would be greatly appreciated...

TMI alert: DH and I last night and had "issues" with the condom... not sure if it broke but it was messy. So if I o'd this month and FF is right that my fertile days were yesterday and today am I in the 2ww? Thanks again ladies!

I'm not sure about charting. Someone else may be able to help, but anytime a condom may have had an oopsie, it's always a possibility.

It does look like you may have O'd on Saturday though they say you're meant to have 3 high temp days in a row to determine ovulation and you've currently only 2. If tomorrow's also high it's looking good!! Also might be ok timing wrt the condom issue, depending timing of O and timing of (egg will only last 24hr). Would also hve wanted to see some EWCM in the days leadin up to the shift to help the sperm get thru and live, but you never know... Fingers crossed and

Thanks mouse_chicky...thought everyone was ignoring me today!! Was so excited this morning! Been on since the perfect weekend and the reading matching previous reading and my TTC date and my holiday, and that matching my cycles was the cherry on the top!!

 

[pixie23]

I'm back ladies!!!! I have missed you all! I'm still catching up, but I'll post now so that I remember what I wanted to say!

hello all i would love to join your group. Ive enjoined reading your post. babydust to all. my husband and i are ttc for a month now first time doing this tracking thing and learning all this language.

Welcome to Autumn Acorns!!!

Hi girls! Just wanted to say hello, since it's been a while! We're actually on the second leg of our trip so I'll still be intermittent, but not for too much longer! Hope everyone is doing well!!

Hi babyb54! I hope you're trip is wonderful!

This week's WTT'er of the Week is Kellysays2u!!!!!!
We love you because you made some awesome blinkies!
They are so cool and creative!
Thank you for your lovely contributions to the group!!!!!

Honorable Mentions go to MouseChicky and Hakunamatata!!!
Mousechicky is a great chatter and very sweet and she makes us laugh (motherhood is not for wimps!)
We love Hakunamatata's newsletter, she's nice to everyone, and she's fun to talk to!​

Congrats Kellysays2u! I love the superlatives blinkies!

 

[pixie23]

I hope your back gets better soon, SaMa86!

Cheers hon, spent a good chunk of today laying on the floor as it's the most comfortable I can get lol. Missed work today and yesterday with it, thankfully am rota'd off tomorrow and monday so lots of time to heal!

I hope you start feeling better soon!

Best of luck to all who are NTNP and TTC! DH and I were able to DTD while he was in town this weekend, I hope I ovulated while he was here - I've been having some light back cramps and EWCM. I hope it happens this month for us as it is officially month 5 when added to our TTC efforts in the early year. Wish we had all month to try so I wouldn't worry so much about us missing or being too early for the egg. My cycles have been a bit irregular, so we were probably too eary in the month to be able to conceive. On the bright side, if it didn't work this time we'll see each other again at the end of the month. I'm just so ready to be pg.

Thanks for another lovely newsletter Kristin! But... i'm never in it Just kidding!! I truly love reading them, keep up the great work!

Kelly i told you you would get my vote! You put so much effort into those blinkies and are just a lovely person in general.. you deserve it!

If you have any special news please PM me so I can include it.

Sorry hun I really didn't mean anything by that, i hope i didn't offend you!! I know you put a lot of hard work into the newsletter...you even add that we should PM you with any news at the bottom. I was TOTALLY kidding, i swear!

I really appreciate everything you do for the group, you are amazing chick!

Okay I'm glad you're not actually upset. The week before last I didn't even include news at all, just the baby trivia, and afterwards I thought it would have been great to announce Jack was sitting up because you had posted those pics and everything. As long as you guys know that I'm doing my best with it. HM is pretty close to perfect but not quite

Happy belated birthday!!!!

So some good news!

OH is home in 4 days instead of 3 weeks! I am so happy He broke his finger, he didnt say how, but said he feels stupid now. So god only knows how it happened

I just hope it is classed as sick leave, and not his actual leave, otherwise he will be gone a week after we marry! but on the plus side, Amara gets to have cuddles with he daddy sooner, and he can enjoy spending a bit more time with Amara!

Yayyyy!!!! So excited for you!!!! It better be considered sick leave!

Thanks mouse_chicky...thought everyone was ignoring me today!! Was so excited this morning! Been on since the perfect weekend and the reading matching previous reading and my TTC date and my holiday, and that matching my cycles was the cherry on the top!!

Literally just walked in the door... haven't been online and therefore not ignoring anyone, just simply unable to read/respond to posts - good luck with the reading, hope it comes true for you!

So i have my usual house inspection tomorrow, so I have to crack on with some housework! Oh how i hate it, but its got to be done.

Its quite nice weather here today, sunny, but there are clouds, and im sure i saw it was meant to rain about 2-3pm today so im a bit undecided whether i should hang some washing up.

Good luck with your house inspection, I had one a few weeks ago & although I was dreading it (hate having someone snooping round your home) my house looked so tidy, it was great!
