Oh I absolutely agree, and have presented that same argument to him only a thousand times!! I figure I've put up with the physical trauma of growing and birthing and breastfeeding two children, HE should take responsibility for contraception from now on!! I am quietly gathering info on vasectomies and present it to him every so often to see if he's changed his mind - no luck yet! Ah well... I *have* gone through two deliveries, pretty sure I can handle getting my tubes tied, too I think DH is looking at things from at least ONE valid standpoint - what if we get divorced in 15 years' time and he remarries? Me, I know no matter what happens in the future, I do not want any more children, but I suppose I cannot begrudge him the option of having more kids with someone else if it ever comes to that (not that we think it will, but I guess it pays to be realistic). I know vasectomies *can* be reversed in some cases but he's really just a big fat girl who thinks that getting the snip will make him 'less of a man' despite still being able to function sexually just the same as before. I think it's a psychological thing for him, much like a woman who has her breasts removed due to cancer - she *knows* it doesn't make her less of a woman but you can't really help but feel that way deep inside, itms??
But yes, looking into it never hurts, maybe if the waiting list is long for me to get my tubes tied he will lose patience with condoms and take the plunge!!
