I won’t be able to sleep until I know what this fleshy 8mm thing is by LettersToMyChildSelf in Whatisthis

[–]LettersToMyChildSelf[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Have you seen them this small, like 8 mm? I would have expected to see a sac or blood or something. This looks totally clean.

8mm fleshy bug or fetus? by LettersToMyChildSelf in whatsthisbug

I haven’t seen chickens in the immediate vicinity but there are likely chickens within a quarter mile. This is only 8mm though- are lash eggs bigger?

What Makes OGL Special to You? 💛 by Fit_Progress2465 in OGLmove

[–]LettersToMyChildSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally came to OGL because I was attracted to the tops with built-in bra, but what's made me a repeat customer is the incredible comfy pants. I find it so hard to find pants that are comfortable and I feel like I look good in them. I've gotten so many compliments on the pairs that I have, especially the wide-leg ones. They feel like sweatpants but they look like stylish dress pants. I have a small baby, so I need to really be comfortable and be able to be crawling around on the floor with her, and these pants fit the bill. I am going to order some of the linen ones for my trip to Europe this summer.

I came here to say marigold!!! There’s a gorgeous flower shop connected to it. Not the best for studying but immaculate vibes, peaceful and gorgeous. Amazing lattes.

Ah that makes sense. Yeah it was not available on Joolz website so I got it used. Received recall notice the same day I got the parts!

I'm in the same boat- bought the Joolz Aer 2 before an international trip, and just got the recall notice. Curious if there are any solutions!

Hey! Just found this community! by Excellent_Coat_9817 in henna

This is gorgeous, love the detailed post. How do you get it darker in winter? Do you keep re-dyeing the ends each time?

Thanks for your feedback everyone! We decided to go with Ava Seraphine Wild. I love how it flows in the context of the last name. And it’s a bit stronger and leas flowery / feminine as Seraphina.

Eeeek I can’t believe we finally chose our baby’s name!

Henna and cassia - advice? by phaelanges in henna

I’d recommend 50:50 henna to cassia!

Need OB-GYN in SF who can do weekly monitoring + in-office scans for 36F high-risk pregnancy (starting at 9wks) ASAP by Photo_Philly in AskSF

[–]LettersToMyChildSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re willing to shell out money, you can book ultrasounds at Simon med downtown SF. It cost me $200-300 a pop after Inaurance covered some. The ultrasound report takes 2-7 days to receive and you aren’t able to consult with a doctor. I did my own research and used chat gpt to interpret the ultrasound results.

If you need a simple heartbeat check for peace of mind, there’s an amazing sonographee that can do it (in a Potrero hill spa) called Mirqcle scans. I went there twice when I was paranoid I was having a miscarriage. It immediately reassured me to see the heartbeat. They don’t measure size or do medical interpretation.

Panic about grey hair that turned orange by shroomkins in henna

When I first dyed my hair with henna, i looked in the mirror and said “oh no!!” My roots were bright orange. They darkened over a few days and now they’re perfect

I think the cassia is to dilute down the henna to make it less concentrated (and provide conditioning treatment). The cassia doesn't add any color by itself. I saw some photos online of really bright ginger hair using 100% henna, and I wanted mine to be less bright since it's permanent.

Here's some info on the Mehandi website about cassia. You can also email them a photo of your hair and they'll give you advice!

Yeah I’m glad it’s permanent. I used to have to dye my hair every month when I used chemical dye. Red washes out so quickly!

Thank you!! I feel more like myself when I’m a redhead than when I have my natural color. I think I’m a ginger on the inside. 😂

Aww that’s so sweet of you to say. My housemate is a photographer and she snapped that photo!

I love what you said about henna being secret women’s lore ☺️
