What is Your Tubal Ligation Status?
Currently, I have not had my tubes tied yet.
Obstacles in Your Tubal Decision
I probably should have had my tubes tied after my last C-section but chose not too. I am fearful about the permanent nature of this procedure. I would possibly like to have one more child but my husband doesn’t want any more. I don’t want to undergo a tubal ligation until I can either have another child or resolve in my mind (and be okay with) the notion that I will never had the opportunity to be pregnant again.
What I'd Do Differently
- I don't want to have any regrets which is why I am waiting until I feel absolutely certain that I do not want any more kids or that I will be okay with not having any more kids.
What Were/Are Some of the Factors in Your Decision?
The main factor is that although I don't always feel this way, deep down, I believe that my family is not complete and adding one more child would be perfect.
