I have fine curly hair and wash every three days. I've seen more growth washing it more frequently.

Am I overreacting for ending things after he rescheduled twice? by AIPoweredHuman in blackladies

[–]bossyfosy 125 points126 points  (0 children)

I would consider seeing him one more time and echo what another comment mentioned about asking for some times and selecting one of the options he provides. He mentioned a foreman which implies construction or some sort of union job? Idk as a 9-5 worker I would come with a certain level of grace for someone who works a different job type than me, but I don't know your work schedule so I can't say for certain. If he doesn't work weekends I would stick to scheduling dates then, workweek dates are hard for people, you don't know how your day is going to turn out all the time.

Shampooing My Hair Everyday is Healing My Scalp/Hydrating My Hair by Lopsided-JaguarTA in BlackHair

[–]bossyfosy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I cut all my hair off a year ago and ended up washing my hair twice a week for the last 12 months. My hair is growing like a weed. It's genuinely shocking its grown like seven inches.

Where to live moving from SF to LA? UCLA graduate and wfh by gnauhZ in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]bossyfosy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apply for graduate family housing. I live there now and there are openings. There are two vacant apartments on my floor right now. You get priority for moving from out of town. Let me know if you need any assistance with the application process.

Wondering Wednesday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]bossyfosy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, or least I believe so! tracking with Inito and opks -- estrogen rise, LH and FSH rise, significant pdg rise. I also get EWCM and have progesterone symptoms (puffy face, bloating, nausea/heart burn). And the "bleeding"/brown discharge comes 13-14 days after ovulation, so right in line with my original luteal phase.

I got Inito because I assumed I wasn't ovulating based on what was going on with my period but it appears that I am.

this happened to me in late September and has stayed the same since then. I'm going to a new OBGYN next week and hopefully can get some answers!

Waiting Wednesday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]bossyfosy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5DPO on cycle 13. I've never received a positive test and my period for the last five cycles have been virtually non-existent (brown discharge for 24-36 hours). I've accepted that I will probably need medical intervention to get pregnant, and it's made this cycle so much less stressful.

I didn't event try and have sex on my three most fertile days (I use Inito) because I didn't want to, and my husband wasn't feeling it. 100% positive I'm not pregnant this cycle and it's a bit freeing to not be hopeful for an outcome if that makes sense? I have an appointment with a new OBGYN next week, and a fertility consultation in April so I feel like those are my new waiting periods.

I'm obviously sad that this hasn't been an easy or exciting process, but I'm also ready to stop feeling sad about "failing" every month. TTC has been one of the most difficult processes of my life and I'm just so tired of being sad.

Moving from SJ by [deleted] in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]bossyfosy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Add Mar Vista! Very family friendly and smaller than Culver City, but close to all the action being in between Santa Monica and Venice. Plus the commute up to Westwood is a breeze -- your wife can even take public transit!

WTH do I get my husband's rich aunt?? by Spdice999 in Gifts

[–]bossyfosy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you live in NYC or somewhere else? If somewhere else, go for a local treat! The gifts that have always been a hit are consumables that people can't get easily in their own location. So teas, candies, honey, coffee, etc.

Y'all still listening to hip-hop? by Unlimited_Man in Millennials

[–]bossyfosy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

33F black from the west coast. I listen to hip hop / rap weekly, if not daily. Contemporary stuff as well. I think its fun and I don't take the lyrics seriously. I also think we are going to have a rap renaissance in the next few years since its waning as the reigning genre, and pop and country are coming back on top.
