Thinking of you Spencer! Group: Members Posts: 12,708 Member No.: 156 Joined: 4-May 03	So me and marcus are 85% sure we are done after this baby. This pregnancy seems to be way harder on my than the others, im having problems with my blood pressure already and such. And he said he would be happy with just 2. We are goign to wait a year after the baby is born and see if we are still feeling this way. And if so then one of us will get fixed. So what do you think is better? Any ideas? --------------------

And, if you are making the bodily sacrifice of getting pregnant and carrying babies, which we all know is super hard on a woman's body, the very least he can do is get a little snip that will put him out of work for an afternoon. Make him do it. I'm making MY dh do it when the time comes.

I still feel cheated! -------------------- Stacy, wife to Peter, mom to Caleb, Jakob, and Andrew

But it's almost impossible to reverse so be sure your sure. -------------------- Rhonda Create your own family sticker graphic at pYzam.com

oh we will thats why we are waiting to decide and not just jump into it. a part of me is because this pregnancy is getting to be harder than my others. and with the losses i suffered i just dont want to risk any more if i get my 2 healthy kids I will be extremely happy with that as will marcus!

Platinum Member Group: Moderators Posts: 8,629 Member No.: 800 Joined: 5-October 04	Vasectomy is far less invasive than tubal ligation as already has been said. Even in my case, where there were some complications, due in part because of scar tissue that I had in there from a childhood injury, and in part because the doc hit a nerve with the anesthetic (not uncommon since the nerves are pretty deep there) - I still think it was the best decision even though I was out of commission for about a week. -------------------- Ed is husband to Lisa (since 1983) Dad to Ricky, John, Erin and Kaitlin The Administrators of the Parenting Club take trolls and violators of the Terms of Service Agreement seriously.

Either way do what works for you... --------------------

Calm and Tranquil! Group: Moderators Posts: 9,565 Member No.: 189 Joined: 23-May 03	DH decided to go ahead with the big V after Claudia was born. He did really well, just make sure you have a lot of ice packs! --------------------
