We had decided that after having two children, 1 boy and 1 girl, our family was also complete back in 2002 when we were only 25 and had gotten rid of everything baby related. We didn't do anything "permanent" and our surprise is now 5 weeks old.

We wouldn't change him for the world, he is one of the best things that has happened to our family but he will definately be the last.

My husband is having his vasectomy in 3 weeks and then we won't have to expect the unexpected again. Our Dr advised us to regard the vasectomy as irreversable because the way he does it (?? cuts and ties off) doesn'thave a very good chance of reversal. Our Dr also advised us that he sends the tubes off to the lab to make sure he cut the right ones and that we have to have everything checked three months later to make sure there are no swimmers and that there are only the two tubes as sometimes there are more (weird).

As long as you are happy with what you have decided then other opinions shouldn't alter your decision - you have to live with it nobody else.

Good luck with the op.
