We are talking vasectomy! We have always said two kids would be plenty for us. I'm not going to push DH, but I really hope he follows through with this. It would be nice if he did it this year while our insurance deductible was met, but I'm not sure if insurance would even pay at all... Anyone else talking vasectomy? More babies? What are your plans?

Both times I went on BCP, my cycles were long and irregular afterwards (it took us a year and a half to get pregnant with this one), so we're going to use condoms until we start TTC #2.
DH has already decided thay once we're done, he'll get a vasectomy. I love that he recognizes that it's less painful and less recovery for him than if I get my tubes tied.
We would like more than 1, but don't know if it will happen. First we need to see if we will be able to provide financially for a second child in a couple of years. Given that we would like a couple of years between kids, that would put me at almost 38 by the time we start trying for a 2nd one. So if we can afford another one, and if I am able to conceive and carry, then we will have another. (It's a crap shoot if genetics have anything to say about it - both of my grandmas had their last after 40, but my mom went through menopause at 37 - so we will see!) 2 would be our limit though!
I'll be going back on the pill.

DH is completely against a vasectomy when we do decide we're done. Idk why, but he very vehemently opposes it, but would be supportive to me getting my tubes tied. Which at this point I think is a bit unfair. We'll see when we get there.
Is there any truth to the point that a woman's body is more fertile for a period of time after giving birth?
If so, we might have to add something a little stronger to the prevention mix until we are ready for 2.
