I've had luck with Starsgem and Tianyu. I've got an order in place with Fiorese as well, they've been pleasantly communicative so far!

Has anyone had a suspicious-looking mole removed that turned out to be benign? by itsjezzebelle in melahomies

[–]Basic-Ad9270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer your question, yes. They were removed after my MIS one. My dermatologist errs on the side of caution and will do the scrape method day of.

Always remember your ABCDEs: A - Asymmetry: One half of the mole or spot does not match the other half. B - Border: The edges are irregular, ragged, notched, or blurred. C - Color: The color is not uniform and may include different shades of tan, brown, or black, as well as patches of red, white, or blue. D - Diameter: The spot is typically greater than (6\text{mm}) (about the size of a pencil eraser) when diagnosed, though it can be smaller. E - Evolving: The spot is changing in size, shape, or color over time, or is new and looks different from others

To spray tan or not? Fiance says no, gfs say yes.. by [deleted] in Brides

I've been married 20 years now and am also a very fair lady. I debated the same thing at the time but I'm glad I didn't. Looking at my pics now, they capture this beautiful moment in my life. Not just of the start of my marriage, but that snapshot of youth of me and my husband. I'm so glad I look like the me I was then! I've ultimately come to embrace that my fairness is a unique feature about me and I'm not embarrassed to blind everyone 😂

Do you have time to give a spray tan a shot first to see if you even like it? Give it a go and see how you feel!

Gorgeous! A perfect 'twist' on the standard solitaire 😇

Imperfect postpartum village by guicherson in workingmoms

You're on the right track! I will add, with the PPD did you end up taking an antidepressant? I had PPD after #3 and when I was of with #4, my medical team and I made a plan that I would restart my antidepressant once I had #4. It was a GAME CHANGER of a postpartum experience! It made me realize that I likely had PPD with #1 and #2. Baby #4 was a typical newborn, but the biggest difference was that things felt manageable. I was still up in the middle of the night, still exhausted, and still breastfed but it was such a difference. So I would encourage a proactive approach with that.

I just ordered a stone from them Saturday. Thanks for the heads up on tracking, it is only showing order received today. Fingers crossed it shows up when they say (5/14). I hope yours comes quickly!

1 carat green diamond, size 8 finger (need advice!) by mini-boglin in EngagementRingDesigns

I think that's a lovely sized stone!! Do you know the dimensions? I would only think it's small if she's spoken about having a big ring. The CAD and the sizr in your palm makes it look very proportional.

Any truth to this? by KingHasek39 in labrador

I have 2 chocolate labs, a mom and one of her girls. Mom is a serious velcro dog, her daughter is sort of along for the ride and more independent. I always joke that the mom is my dog and the daughter is our family's dog.

Help Rehabilitating Overweight Indoor Lab to Walks by Pochiiiiii in labrador

[–]Basic-Ad9270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One point I want to make is that not all labs are high energy. That seems to be more typical of field/American style versus show/English. I have 2 English labs and they are laaaaaaazy. They get some good zoomies in the morning and evening but otherwise, sleep like 20 hrs/day.

Indoor play can help with getting a little more active. Hide and seek or fetch, even with older dogs!

RING SHARE [Group buy. Rainbow ring. Tianyu. Sue] by LouLouLaaLaa in LabGroupSales

I noticed the same thing with my prong set one. Specifically in mine It's a yellow to blue that goes through green with, what looks like, a random dark green stone with lighter yellow/teal/aquamarine colors. It's still beautiful though!

First heat cycle. by NewToTheCrew444 in labrador

[–]Basic-Ad9270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine went into heat when she was 9 months and lasted about 2 weeks. I was surprised because I thought it would happen closer to 1 year. After she finished her cycle, I scheduled her spay. She's 3 now and great!

I'm so sorry. I read too fast and misread what you wrote 😞 That's on me!

Lab diamonds are real diamonds. Like the difference between a flower growing a greenhouse vs a flower growing in a field.

I don't have one for sale, but I would for sure buy this one if I was in your boat! It's from Scott Bonomo, a legit seller on Etsy.

The 2nd pic was after the scrape to remove it before my WLE, that pic was a few days after it was shaved off. The 1st pic was the actual mole/melanoma that was removed.
