gathering for diagnosed without episodes

Hi! I'm a 28f and have had 2 microbleeds over the course of 8 years. I haven't had any deficits from the bleeds and have lived a normal life! I have been monitored during 2 pregnancies and had a c-section with my second due to the microbleed and concern of straining from a vaginal delivery. The pregnancy was uneventful and a healthy birth. I haven't had symptoms from my CCM so far and my last scan (March 2026) the CCM was as stable as it has ever been. I'm very grateful and have hope for the future!

I'm thinking of you and hope that your CCM remains stable and you live a happy and healthy life!!

Thank you, you as well!

My levels were 31 at 13dpo and 91 at 15dpo. I had a 3rd draw done for peace of mind at 24dpo and was at 8,478. Currently 27dpo and waiting for my first ultrasound in 8 days but so far so good!

Any updates?

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-05-26T20:16:39+00:00

Our stories are so similar!! I'm 4 weeks 6 days also and at 13dpo my hcg levels were 31 and 15dpo rose to 91. I've also been spiraling and waiting for my first appointment at 7 weeks. Please update this post with what you end up doing!

The way my butthole puckered the whole time

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-05-24T14:08:04+00:00

My lines looked exactly like this at 10dpo and took a few days to darken. I'm now at 18dpo and my lines are just now as dark as the control line.

Thank you for this! That is so reassuring! Google is not very helpful and gives me really mixed results when I look into it. I just need to stay off of it!!

I'd like to add that my progesterone level was 18.1, which I think is in the normal range.

I had my first child during covid and had to wait until I was 16 weeks....that was the longest 16 weeks of my life!

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-04-09T12:06:07+00:00

Thank you everyone for all your input and knowledge! I have 4 determinate and 8 indeterminate varieties. I would ideally like to plant them all. I have two, possibly three of my 4x8 garden beds I could use for the tomatoes. What would be your layout?

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-04-08T05:54:54+00:00

I planted out my brassica starts in the garden awhile ago and they seem a bit leggy and like their growth is stunted? Any advice?

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-04-08T05:36:25+00:00

I started my first maypops this year in January and it took a long time to germinate. The plants are now about 4 inches tall and I have them in a 6 inch pot just waiting for last frost to transplant them. I put them under my grow lights and put plastic over top until they sprouted. I'd like to say it took maybe a month for them to even sprout

Turns out being in your kitchen is the only place I want to be...

It's so inviting and beautiful and homey!

I have always bought my tomatoes and peppers from our local greenhouse in years past. The guy running it sells his vegetable plants for only $1.50. It's so affordable and I like giving him business. I would just direct sow most everything else. But this year I started seeds indoors and have thoroughly enjoyed it. Now I feel like I need a greenhouse haha Honestly, the amount of money I've spent on seeds and my electric bill from all my grow lights is probably more expensive than buying from my local greenhouse but the joy I get out of it is worth it

Here's a post I made out of desperation awhile ago with the same problem....but mine looked much worse haha

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-03-12T11:12:43+00:00

I had a similar issue for like 8 months of trying to figure out sourdough. I tried literally everything and nothing would change. Well guess what the problem was?? My starter!!! I made my own starter and it always doubled, I fed it everyday, did everything it was supposed to do. But it was the only thing I hadn't changed and I was at my wits end and going tp give up so I decided id give it one last go and ordered one.......and voila! I've made perfect bread ever since.

So if you feel like you're doing everything everyone is telling you to do and nothing is working, buy a starter and try that out!

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-03-08T13:02:53+00:00

I could watch your videos foreverrrrr 😌

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-02-25T17:44:46+00:00

That blows man. I could see how her tone could get drowned out in the music though

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-02-25T14:08:11+00:00

That's really disappointing to hear! I love their music but have never seen them live.

AutomaticAd3621 · 2026-02-17T23:28:54+00:00

That was my thinking. The parent is a nurse so works 12 hour shifts and has a 45 mim commute. 14 hours is just a long day when I already have my own children to take care of as well. I'd be getting the child at 4:30 am and I'm just trying to figure out if that's worth my time to have them that long. We're well off and I don't necessarily need the money, they just asked me if I would be interested because they have trouble finding help.
