One more week, still no periods. I have to run at night to the pharmacy to get new pregnancy tests. (I thought we still had one but it seems like she used another one without telling me...). She comes back from work (really late) and try again.
I'm watching some stupid 笑い TV, she cames back from the bathroom with her big eyes and tells me : "i'm pregnant !".
My science background tells me to take step back, read the manual, and check that the result is actually positive. On the box, the 2nd line is quite dark, ours is kinda faint, after half an hour googling "is a faint line on a pregnancy test actually positive ?" and after checking the percentage of accuracy and the statistics of false positive with pregnancy tests (oh god i'm such a geek), i finally admit that we are going to have a baby !
Having our first baby in Japan. My wife, Japanese who studied in the US for 5 years, me, coming from Europe and been in Japan for about 4 years. The 2 of us (hopefully 3 soon) living in Tokyo and discovering what having a baby in Japan means (not that we have anything to compare with...)

First test
First delay (about a week) in her periods and first test: negative.
She is working so late at night that we put that on the count of overwork and stress. Little hope from her side but i myself don't realize anything of course.
