Hi all.

My husband and I have been married for 6 months but we have been together for 3 years. I was very upfront with him from the get- go and told him that I had my children earlier in life and had my tubes tied 12 yrs ago. He was ok with that and we moved forward. Now he has baby fever and wants to conceive and I can't so that kind of hurts that I can't fullfill his wish to give him a child. I try to not take it personal and tell him that we can practice baby-making if he wants because that's the fun part. We just hold each other tight. Both of us keep dreaming of babies in our sleep too. It is not his fault or mine ; just feeling a little left out.

We are happy in many other ways.I can understand his desire,he is younger and have never had kids.We talked about it extensively during our courtship and it was ok.Still is ok,I just feel bad sometimes.

It's understandable to feel upset when your partner is hurting. I hope you both find peace soon. Best of luck to you.

If you are also wanting another child (and not just wanting to give him a child) the procedure CAN be reversible - could be something to discuss with your doctor. A friend of mine had her tubes tied about 6 years ago and is soon going in to have them "untied" whatever that process is called. So the door may not be completely shut if you don't want it to be.
