thanks so much kriscee for your story, it was really good for me to know all the details of how it is done and the recovery etc.

DH and i have pretty much decided to have it done if we have a boy, so now we will just wait and see. the good part is that my OB, who i have a lot of trust in, does the procedure, so at least i know who will be doing it.

thanks everyone for your input,

Linda
