  I like Autumn Acorns more and more the more I think about it. It's just great imagery... From the little acorn grows the mighty oak -- just like from our little embies we hope to grow mighty babies. :-)

  Hi @CallaLily30‌ I just found out the my FET will most likely be at the end of October! My clinic cycles women for FETs just like IVF so I guess I'm just going to have to wait! So frustrating! I love harvest hopefuls and little candy corns!

  love all the choices! let me offer a brief plug for "feisty fall foxes"- I like how it makes us seem fierce and like we're not taking IF lying down- we fight! also I like the imagery of a fox, how often do we really see one these days? or perhaps you could interpret it as a sexy woman, which all of us clearly are. 

  
  

  sincerely,
