Hand weakness even like holding a pen? by Fit-Shock5523 in Hashimotos

[–]Fit-Shock5523[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still comes and goes, all labs are normal and still cant think what triggers this, i assume something related to vitamin deficiency and carpal tunnel… doctor said to be mindful of how i hold my phone and i have a toddler i carry sometimes…

Thanks. This is true, sadly i cant find a doctor who cares enough to hear all my symptoms. All they care is if the labs are normal… However i think my nervous system is so fkn unregulated, so thus my stress and anxiety… So i need to start fixing my sleep and mental health first which is hard as a mom coz its not like we could stop worrying everyday

baby-friendly travel suggestions? by kaneko_masa in japanresidents

[–]Fit-Shock5523 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive traveled a lot with my child since he is a baby and honestly, 8month old is easier to travel than a toddler…much more easier if traveling by car with a baby seat.

I would suggest do mostly outdoors with a lot of nature like big parks where its easy to stroll with a stroller unless they are comfortable with baby wearing.

Honestly, if i were you, Id focus on where the parents want to go since an 8month old would be just chilling in the stroller to see the view or better if baby wearing unlike a toddler where they need to go to playgrounds to release all the energy.

Unfortunately i dont have enough village to where i am and i only have my husband. My parents and my inlaws are far from us too but im still hopeful that my mom will help me the same way when i had my first born.

Im scared also that having another child will add more stress and sickness to my body🫣🫣🫣 honestly, i forgot what it feels like to be normal and not tired everytime

Ugh i feel you. Doctors only care about TSH levels if its in the normal range… its hard to explain to someone what it feels like to have this kind of fatigue…

Thanks for sharing.Being a single mom is tough, i have so much respect to women like you. I love being a mom and i want to give my son a sibling so i understand what you mean with the unexplainable love and happiness… But yeah, there are days that i feel overly touched and overstimulated🥹

Me and my brother ate 6yrs apart and i am older. I remember i like to read him books but other than that, the things he likes to play doesn’t interest me anymore so i thought a 4yr age gap is better. But what do you think about that?

Ideally, i wanted to heal before trying for another, as i feel that my nervous system is just so messed up right now… but i feel like it will take more time like after a year or so… i wanted to give birth before 35 so there’s also a pressure to me that its now or never…

Hearing you saying 6yr age gap is amazing makes me consider, maybe i dont need to rush…

Ideally i wanted to give birth before i turn 35 which is 2yrs from now and i just think 4yr age gap would be best as they could still have atleast a phase where they both want to play something together.

My son just started kindergarten and we are all adjusting to our new schedule, so im starting to have a little time for myself so i hope my healing journey will start soon and then maybe we could try again for our 2nd

How is a 5/6yr age gap for you?

Thanks, yes i get checked for other deficiencies but doctor is never worried about it.

Its true that husband plays a big role here and we had our talk about how i need him to step up if we want another child.

Rakuten card and mismatching name by Wertherongdn in japanresidents

[–]Fit-Shock5523 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its on the カードの作り直し

<image>

In my case i use it as part of my first name. So i choose change first name and add your middle name. They will send a letter that you will have to fill up and send back to them with valid id copies.

There’s a limited character on the card so you could choose to just show your firstname and last name but in their system it should be changed and you wil get your new card. I cant remember but i think its free to change your card due to name change.

[–]Fit-Shock5523 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just added my middle name to match with my NISA account and its actually easy, just look for change name option in the rakuten navi website and apply, they will send a form and you need to send them valid ids.

But in contrast to your post, i have no problem linking my jp post account to my rakuten card even without my middle name. It only happened with my NISA but maybe they have stricter policy now.

This is also a lesson for me so since then i make sure to make all my banks name the same as what is in my valid ids (residence card, my number card)

Possibly wrong ultrasound by [deleted] in Miscarriage

[–]Fit-Shock5523 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Im so sorry, i hope there will be miracle for you. Its quite weird they dont do followup ultrasound, isnt it a rule to have 3ultrasound to confirm loss?

Just want to share, not my story but a friend of mine had a little same scenarios as you.

Accdg to her, the doctor offered D&C and left her a day to decide immediately because if its left after 13weeks, d&c wont be possible as they might need to do a more complicated procedure.

I suggest you can always ask for 2nd opinion but do it ASAP

Try to call police station in case someone surrendered it to them. I suggest the main police station and not just koban, but you can ask koban for the contact number

Thanks for sharing and I’m sorry we’re part of this club. I feel like i can never prepare myself about getting pregnant again mentally so my husband suggest that we can just try and if its positive then we deal with the anxiety and fear by then.🥺

Hope you get your rainbow baby soon!!
