    Hi MOM

    DH and I made the decision not to have any more kids after my number 5, he went in and had the snip. My body couldn't take it and mentally, we were both tired as no. 4 and 5 was born pretty close together.

    But, I guess it wasn't meant to be stopping at 5 because I fell pregnant after 6mths of his snip...just when we thought, "Oh no, not another baby!" we find out we'll be expecting ID twins!

    Anything can happen, yes, would be pretty sad if all possibilities was closed off if you and hub changes mind on wanting more kids, but I heard you can reverse the snip on a guy if you want to have more kids later....

    mumofmany - i dont know how you do it look at the size of all your bubs and they werent even full term! WOW! i dont have much advice for you as me and my DF have pretty much decided he will most likely get the snip after our first and only child due to the physical issues i have with pregnancy and im never doing this again! but i wish you the best in making a decision, i also remember a few months back your hubby posted on BB stating he wanted another bub!

    MHB - It was Mummyofmany's DH that posted on here. It can get confusing... I remember them by their avatars (and because mummyofmany is a FB friend too)

    If one or neither of you are in the "permanent" camp, maybe you two should look at other forms of BC until you both can say you are definitely happy with a permanent state.
