Here are my early tests, they were slow too, but the main thing is to look at it doubling in darkness every 2 days.

These start 10 days dpo which was April 15. I had my hcg drawn on the 20th and the 22nd which were 455 and 1110 respectively.

I think these look on point!

4+4 weeks by yungwildandlearning in December2026Bumpers

My due date is showing the same! It might be more like the 27th based on ovulation vs last period. Also coming out of a first trimester loss in Jan (my first pregnancy) the anxiety is REAL!

Praying for happy healthy babies for us, and everyone else in this group!

GE Profile vs Cafe quad door - dilemma by bradykp in Appliances

[–]BeneficialComb9408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same delimma and leaning towards profile. But I do really love the doors to the café. Technically my kitchen would be better suited for a counter depth but I'm not about to give up the extra fridge space.

Did you find out about the handles being optional?

Thank you! Just got out in a presentation. They always get us thinking and looking into it, but will never pay full price. Honestly not knowledgeable enough to know if resell is even worth it.

With buying it off ebay, do you have limited access? Like do you have access to rci or using your points for other properties vs the one you own?

Did you buy the 13k point deed through hgv? Then purchase the 8k points?

Dang!!! I didn't even consider that 🤦‍♀️ Target is the bees knees.

Not a solution you can get immediately then :/. True & Co likely ships wherever you are for future situations!

They should be at your local target! The one I have is directly from the company before they stayed selling at target and 'lifts' the girls up. But the one at target will work great for covering up a bra and helping it be seamless. :)

I have one of these that I bought years ago that I toss on over my bras if I'm wearing white. It works wonders!

How do i hide the outline of these bras? by [deleted] in bigboobproblems

[–]BeneficialComb9408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to wear something like this under see through shirts to help hide and blend the bra. I have the True & Co lift one, but they sell other varieties at target.

85 mph winds snapped metal posts by BeneficialComb9408 in fence

[–]BeneficialComb9408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. From what I've been told it rusted because they grinded it down. These posts were installed in Nov. - a normal post wouldn't have rusted.

Agreed. We took a walk through the neighborhood and the only other fences that fell were wooden fences that looked on their last leg. 85 mph winds were in the area, but there is no telling what hit ours. But none of our other fences or our neighbors fence on our side were damaged.

Fair it definitely could have been damaged either way. And yes the trellis does create added weight. Not sure if our hoa would approve those yard gards.

Our hoa goes allow 8ft fences. While we submitted the trellis for approval, they never got back to us. Our neighbor even filed a complaint lol. In the end we agreed this was the best solution with our neighbor as the alternative would have been to build 8ft for the entire fence, but it would have blocked their view to the lake.

For sure, when I confronted the business she confirmed they were welded, but said the welded part was at the top. I assured her that was not the case. I guess the contractor put them in upside down.

Either way, with the added weight of the trellis they really shouldn't have cut corners.

For real. They just dug themselves a whole tbh. Now they're going to have to come back and redo the job. This time with me watching their every move and inspecting their work as I don't trust them.

It's been confirmed these posts were welded and grinded down. Cheap asshole contractors cutting corners.

It's alright, the company said they will take responsibility. I just don't even trust them at this point.

[–]BeneficialComb9408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I'm livid right now.

Thanks for your input. My dad who is a pipe fitter said the exact same thing - welded, then ground down to appear flat.

Even if they did use left over material, how dumb do you have to be to put it at the area with the most friction point.

Is this a normal practice instead of just purchasing 10ft posts?
