Getting tubes tide when having CS?

[~Raven~]

I asked my OB about this JIC I was to need an C/sect I'd request getting that done too, and he said he doesn't like to do them as they have a higher failure rate. Something to do with everything down there being larger than normal and the ends of the tubes finding eachother and rejoining.
I'm sure he said that the failure rate of tubal ligation done during a c/sect was about 1:100 but if done 6 months post birth it is 1:600.

Oh dear!

I had mine done when I had my last c/s... I almost did it after number 3 but decided I just wasn't ready.. but have had it done now..

OT: Failure rate thing has me a little cus I am 3 days late with AF.. I settled down to a 25 day cycle but now well...... Do you know where I can find more info on that?

I have also been thinking about getting my tubes tied with my next baby. I have had 2 c/s both emergecy and a we would like 1 more baby and i have been contemplating getting my tubes done as i will opt for an elect c/s next baby (ewont be for at least another year yet) But i would prefer to have then done whilst already on the operating table rather than having to go back a 2nd time and getting cut open again or do they do it by key hole surgery?

Imagine ... well ... I am just curious to know if Lady AF has arrived!!

Nic he told me this info so I'm not sure if I can find it. Will try to find out for you.

Try not to freak in the meantime! I didn't share it to freak anyone out, it was just my OB's reason for not doing them during a c/sect.

Tweetsta I believe it is keyhole surgery that they would do it with.

I ended up taking a pg test yesterday and it was neg.. So I assume AF has jus decided to take a long break this month..

I am surprisingly relieved, I didn't want anymore but would love more kids if that makes sense.. I didn't really give it much thought till this week and when I thought I might be I kinda got a little excited and was worried how I would feel if the test came back neg.. But I am relieved. It would just be bad timing I am so tired from the sleepness nights as it is I don't think I could handle much else right now..

and to be honest having to tell people would make me feel embarrassed and irresponsible. I know it is a silly way to feel but thats how I would feel..

So for those thinking of getting your tubes tied be 100% sure this is what you want. I know it is was the right decision to make for my family and for myself but sometimes in the back of my mind I wonder whether I will want more on a few years time.. kwim??

I should also point out I have sme very mixed emotions this week. I am all over the place
