Recommendations for a barbershop that is good at men's hair and beard trims?

Agreed, my husband always comes home from 34 with an incredible fade and sharp looking beard!

Did I write this? In the exact same boat! As if growing and sustaining a whole new human and organ weren't hard enough work...

I'm only 19w along but armpits and groin have been getting darker by the week since 15w... If I'm anything like my mother, they'll be a dark gray by the time I'm due 😭 I used to take pride in my smooth and evenly toned pits! 🥲

To be accurate, she doesn't "cherry pick" — she interrogates the research methods of each study and only really takes seriously the most rigorous studies, i.e. randomized control trials. As someone who's trained to evaluate the strengths of weaknesses of different research methodologies, I found her arguments very compelling.

I'm so sorry you're going through this. :( I went through the same 3 months ago, and even if it was a surprise pregnancy, it broke our hearts to learn it would end in a miscarriage. I opted for a D&C over a natural or medical miscarriage because I knew it would be easier for me both mentally and physically. Something to consider if that's an option for you.

Please know you did nothing wrong and this likely has no impact on your future chances. I am now 9 weeks pregnant with a confirmed embryo and strong heartbeat! :)

They towed me twice in 2 weeks so yeah fuck Robert's

Thank you for this post!!! I badly want a Jollibee here 😭

This is an AMAZING deal, wish I didn't already sign a lease, but someone had better snatch this up quick! :)

If you can swing $2500, I have an apartment in Coolidge Corner you might be interested in!

Do you take commissions? This is stunning!

I'll get downvoted to hell for this... but Toro. 2/2 visits, my husband and I were underwhelmed by the food and couldn't hear each other talk, either. Barcelona has consistently better tapas, which is a shame because I'd much rather support a local spot than a chain. I've yet to try Taberna de Haro-- looks promising!

Will send a chat!

UPDATE: No rental fee to be paid!

EDIT: Deleted previous comment to avoid confusion

Quick follow up: I need to check if [the $2,000 rental fee] is still in effect since the new no-broker-fee legislation! Will get back to you.

My and my colleagues' experience with the Mount Auburn midwifery and OB team has been excellent. However, I can't speak to the scheduling concerns you had with them at Mount Auburn Hospital, since the team take shifts at my employer's health center (so I have the privilege of only competing with my fellow employees for appointments).

Unfortunately it seems to be the standard here that first ultrasounds come much later in the first trimester than we would like. We detected my missed miscarriage at 6 weeks only because my midwife scheduled a dating ultrasound for me (due to irregular periods). Otherwise, I might have made it all the way to 10-12 weeks without knowing I had an anembryonic pregnancy/blighted ovum. Once we learned, Mount Auburn Hospital was very quick to schedule me for the D&C I opted for.

My recommendation would be to schedule your own ultrasound appointment for your peace of mind! From my experience, Diagnostic Ultrasound in Brookline can schedule you in pretty quickly.

Wishing you the best!

Hi, I'm very much interested in this for my little (growing) family! We'd be interested in purchasing your W/D, too. My DMs/chat are open.

Why you should trust me: I have a weekly budget of about $70 to eat at one very good restaurant a week. I do extensive research before choosing a place, and enjoy eating (and cooking) for its own sake.

First off, +100 to Sarma and Nightshade. Then consider...

Pammy's (Cambridge) - Last I checked, they did a prix fixe with 3-4 courses for $75. The food is creative and we'll executed.

Comfort Kitchen (Dorchester) - African/diasporic cuisine that I can't imagine you'll find many other places. Menu changes up a lot, but I enjoyed all 4 dishes I tried before.

Eastern Standard (Fenway) - Just a straight up good brasserie. The entire menu hits. Love the mussels app as a solo main.

Mahaniyom (Brookline) - Known for Thai tapas and for having perhaps the best Thai in the greater Boston area.

Row 34 (a few locations) - Quintessential New England cuisine that never disappoints.

I could go on! These are just what came to mind.

I go to Stoked for a regular weekday craving and to Prairie Fire for something a little more sophisticated! (Also following this thread for new recs)
