Hi everyone,
I’m a British woman living in Tokyo. I recently married my husband (who moved to Japan from a different country about 10 years ago) and we’ve been trying-but-not-trying for a couple of months now.
I don’t really know anyone here in Tokyo who’s at a similar stage in life and of course I don’t have any family or in-laws in Japan, so it’s a bit overwhelming at the moment trying to get all the information we need. Not just about becoming parents for the first time but also navigating that in a different country. I somehow was able to pass N2 Japanese but I don’t have the vocabulary to understand a lot of the Japanese information out there for new mothers.
Anyway, wish me luck! If anyone would like some support or commiseration please feel free to get in touch via Line or meet for オッフ会.
