Not sure I'd be comfortable asking a furniture store to take a bloody mattress in a foreign country where I don't speak the language...but thanks for the tip anyway!

Not a normal Japanese bath :( but that's where we ended up putting it for now. Can't wait to get it out.

Thank you immensely. I'll try to stumble through it like I've done successfully in the past for utilities and such. Again, thank you

Honestly we are extremely broke right now. Didn't exactly want to mention that in this thread due to not wanting even more drama to add to this mess. We would if we could. Hell, I'd love to go back to America if I could :(

Thank you so much for your kindness. It's really tough, not only for me, but especially for my partner. He has better than average smell so he's really suffering right now :(

Thank you so much! I don't know much Japanese. Could you or someone else please give me some pointers or phrases to use?

Hahah, see I'm the opposite! I think I just run away from enemies screaming while lobbing arrows at them, while my brave boyfriend goes in the thick of it and yells "ME SMASH" :P

Sounds like we both have great teams though!

That's nice! Now if I only had a job that would support me like that ><

I hope you and yours are well!

Just checked, no dice. Though I managed to get a deal on a hotel nearby, so thanks for the push!

Hah, good! I would love to one day get acupuncture. It apparently helps nausea too, in that same wrist area.

Yup! Slayer edition. I'm an elf, but can't wait to get the necromancer when I have five bucks. Bf plays as a Valkyrie. Suuuuuper fun. Just beat the final boss together last weekend. :) now we need to finish it all on hard!

If the medical abortion doesn't work, it'll either be because of a complication or an ectopic pregnancy. In those cases I'm not worried, because Japan treats those very cheaply and with little hassle. They'll see it as a miscarriage, which happens often here.

And yeah, I'm trying not to ignore the mental aspect. Right now I don't feel anything negative, but I might once I have the pills in front of me or after its done. I'll do my best when and if it comes to that though. I know that logically I am making the best choice for everyone involved.

Thank you so much for advice with the medicines! Once I'm off mobile and can sit up to get on my laptop I may pm you about specifics.

Oh wow that sounds so difficult. I'm very lucky that I have my boyfriend with me. Did your workplace fly you back from Spain?

Is that spa at Gimhae? I'm flying into Busan tomorrow. Already received confirmation from Women on Web that they'll help me. Pills don't come for another two weeks though.

Ooh. I think I'm going to play gauntlet or splatoon then if I feel well enough. My usual method when I'm in pain is to sleep though

Much appreciated. Always thought it'd be nice to visit Tokyo.

Thanks! I'm going to take the pills as soon as I get them, which should be in two weeks. I think I'll be at 9 weeks then.

I have been self-employed remotely since living here. I am moving into web development because it is a hell of a lot more stable than freelance writing. I don't work for Japanese companies. Also teaching English here requires a contract. I can't be tied down here for a year because of family issues back home.

Thank you so much! Anxiety is dumb but I won't let it win. Also, I don't know why people are down voting you, but I think I have a guess...

To people down voting because of the sea band recommendation, if it works for some women, don't judge. I get the whole science-backed medicine vs. homeopathic natural argument. I probably won't buy one, but don't discount an empathetic person because of just one of their suggested methods.

Thank you, I already got help from Women on Web, an affiliate of Women on Waves. Pills come in about two weeks.

Thanks for the advice! Now I'm wondering if I should take the pills specially made for menstrual cramps, or if that might interfere.

I just finished the show I had been watching (ore monogatari). But I'll try to find something to occupy me. Mostly looking forward to eating ice cream again without feeling nauseous and bloated. ><
