One & Done: Only child

Eeeek! We had "the talk"

DH and I discussed permanent birth control options tonight. I think I am going to call our insurance tomorrow and find out if we need a referral for a specialist and get things started for him to have a vasectomy. I was nervous to talk about it, but I feel ok about the decision.

    Good! We are going down the same path. Just waiting until dh builds time from being off work to schedule the surgery.

  • You'll be so glad when it's done! My husband got his final clearance for no swimmers a month or so ago and it is so weird to be off birth control for the first time in like 15 years (except being pregnant, of course). I would've stayed on but I developed pretty severe melasma (giant dark spots, if you aren't familiar) all over my face and hormonal birth control is said to make it worse. I've been off 6 weeks and my face is already lightening up. For that reason alone, I'm happy that it's done!

  • My husband had it done 2.5 years ago. It was an easy procedure. I'm glad we did it.

  • DH went through the initial consultation a couple months ago but then developed unrelated health issues. We should be able to revisit it soon, however.

  • My husband is having a vasectomy next week. It's the real deal now! I'm so glad I don't have to take birth control any longer!!

  • I had my tubes tied almost 2 years ago , and I loved not having to worry about birth control.
