Did anyone have a tubal ligation after their c-section?

This will be our 3rd and final baby and I'll be having a tubal during my c-section. Just wondering how this recovery compared to your previous births, if you had any. Thanks!

I'm having this done end of September when Baby #4 is born. I have no idea about recovery. My friends who have done it at the same time have had a ROUGHER recovery. Some ladies on here have seen no difference. I want the latter.

GL!

I had my tubal during my third c/s, and this recovery was BY FAR the easiest of my c/s or vbac recoveries. It seems like I bled longer -- I just was able to go from pads to pantiliners this past week -- but as far as how I felt, this was no doubt the easiest recovery.

My recovery was definitely easier (although I think it definitely helps to know what to expect), but I just stopped bleeding a few days ago! My OB even did an ultrasound a week or so ago just to check for any retained placenta, and ended up giving me BCP to get the bleeding to stop...

I had a tubal with my 2nd this past fall (first was a c-section too, 5 years ago) and I don't think it impacted recovery at all. The 2nd c-section was, however, much easier than the first...I chalk it up to being planned rather than after 36-hour failed induction like my first was!

Now that's its been 10 months, I still think its crazy I don't have to worry about birth control!

I had a tubal after my c/s. This was baby #3. #1&2 were vaginal deliveries. This 3rd one was a c/s because DD was breech. I had more pain from where my tubal was than I did from my c/s incision because of that it took a little longer to get my pain management under control. My OB said the tubal shouldn't cause pain, but when I pointed to where pain was the nurse said that yes it can cause pain. They see it quite often. GL, hope your c/s goes well and congrats on you LO.

I had a tubal after DS and my recovery was great. It was definitely easier than my first, but I think that had more to do with not laboring beforehand. I also didn't bleed any longer than the first time and just finally got my first PP cycle this week at just shy of a year.

Had a tubal after DS was born--didnt notice a difference with that recovery at all

I just had my tubes tied with my 3rd csection. I did not notice a difference but to be honest my kids are spaced out and I may not clearly remember(ds1 16, ds2 8 and dd is 10 wks).

I had my 3rd c/s and a tubal 3 weeks ago today. My previous 2 were easy and this was one was even easier. I've been home all week with all 3 kids and things are fine. I've been off pain meds since the day after I came home and have been pretty good.
