Vasectomy.....

So, is this a mutual decision between you and your wife, or is it one where you "stepped" up to the plate with your bat in hand for her. I admire your willingness and love for your wife, just make sure you want this as badly as she does.

It is something we have talked about and both agree upon. I am completely happy with the two children we have and I would have even been happy with just one after all she went through but she wanted to try for one more and didn't think we would have anymore complications and chalked the first experience as just bad luck. Well, #2 was just as bad and required her to make at least 20 trips to the Birthing Center and roughly 20 ultrasounds on the baby.

So yes, we have mutually decided this is the best thing to do. I am very happy with just two kids, heck with us paying $1,000 per month in child care I can't afford another one, lol.

Then, I congratulate you two on this because that shows a really true love, respect, and understanding for each other. How long u been married? Been over 32 years for me and my wife.

It shows that you really love her and will never leave her, I am sure she really appreciates it.

I don't know of anybody that has had a vasectomy, so I can't give you any recommendations except for maybe freezing some of your sperm, on the off chance that you want to have more children later or something.

You're a good man UTV, no matter what DD says about you. haha

Let me know what you find out UTV. I will be going down the same route in the near future. Your wife and mine have a lot in common with the complications. My suggestion was for her to get fixed while they done the C-section with Morgan, but the doc talked her out of it. I just would not put her through another pregnancy either. We built a 3 bedrooom house and they are full now, so 2 is enough. Just got to hope to make it to NCAA tourney next year and get it done then I guess. Set in the recliner all weekend watching games with my pills against frozen pea bags.

Also guys don't trust the UID. My best friend's wife had one put in before they got married. He knocked her up on their honeymoon!

8 years this October. Started dating in the 8th grade which puts us being together for a total of 16 years or so. So it really feels longer than just 8 years, lol.

Ha Ha.....thanks I appreciate that. I may freeze my sperm just in case someone out there is looking for sperm donated by an incredible athlete with a modeling background similar to Tom Brady or someone similar, LOL. :laffingassoff: All kidding aside I have been blessed with two kids and anymore would just have to be a miracle.

Will do Stripes and that is an incredible idea for the NCAA tourney or maybe bowl week. I think that's what I'm gonna do.....

There's always a shot in the dark chance of these things happening. I've heard of women getting pregnant on the pill, condoms breaking or leaking, etc. IUD works for me and mine.
