I've been lurking for a while but figured I might as well "officially join" and introduce myself. My husband and are are both 30 and are on month 3 of ttc #2. Our son is 14 months old. I just stopped breastfeeding this week, and this is only my 3rd postpartum cycle. To get pregnant with him, I temped and charted. I haven't done that this time yet, but probably will in a few months.
I like hard cider, knitting, sarcasm, and creative cursing. Hope you'll have me, even though I still can't figure out gifs!

Cranberry hard cider sounds really good. I'm really into TwoTowns Hard Cider out of Corvallis, Oregon. They use all locally grown apples with no added sugar's or preservatives. Delicious!!!
With all these hard cider drinkers I'm thinking we need to share our favs
Yes!! My current fave is Ciderboys Cranberry Road, but that might be just a Wisconsin thing. I'm always looking for new ones to try.
And thanks to everybody for the warm welcome!

Welcome! We are in a similar situation. I am also TFAS. DS just had his 1st birthday. I breastfed him for 10 months and didn't get my period back until I had him down to 1 small feeding a day. My cycles have been irregular, so that has caused challenges with TTC. There are many other women on here also TFAS.
Hi there! Welcome and best of luck to you. I'm also a fan of cider... Woodchuck Fall is my favorite.
