DH was talking about getting a vasectomy.
So ever since lily was born 2 1/2 weeks ago DH has kept bringing up having a Vasectomy. He asked me yesterday to call the urologist to see about getting him an appointment. Well I was thinking this mornign and I really don't want him to do it. We already have 5 kids but we're still fairly young and healthy and while I don't want any more kids at the moment, I may change my mind and I really don't want the option permanently taken away from us.
So I texted DH and asked him if he REALLY wanted to get a vasectomy. I had a feeling he didnt but felt he needed to for whatever reason. Well his reply was "No, God never said for man to get cut he said be fruitful and multiply" LOL so I think I'm just gonna go back on birth control pills for a little while or do BBT/ OPK's. I have a few months to figure it out since I got the depo shot to try and help with my milk supply. I'm just happy that he's now not wanting to do anything permanent. Who knows..once Lily is out of the baby stage I may start getting baby fever again;)

i just had my iud removed and dh is like i dont know if im ready yet( and he said this after the dr appt when it got removed) and i kept texting all all day yesterday are you sure you want the iud out and his response yes so i dont know if he is nervous or what i dont think we will get pregnant this month as i am i cd 12 and still kinda bleeding i think its from the iud removed but hers looking forward to nov but you never know i leave it all in gods hands
LOL...must be that the weather cools down a bit in the south...provides more enerrgy...LOL....i have no idea but all my pregnancies in the last 3 years have been concieved in nov or dec....
That's funny, I've always said I have a "mating season" --> oct, nov, dec. I have 2 kids born in july, 2 in aug and 2 in sept LOL
LOL...we'll see how things go...they tested me at my 6 week pp appt becuase i told her i wasnt using bc...it was negative but i expected that
for some reason i have an easy time concieving in nov and dec so im thinking thats what is going to happen again...

That's basically what we've always done...we've just had periods of time where we didn't try but didn't prevent either. We'll see how it goes. I'm still pumping but with DS7 I was pumping/nursing/supplementing until 5 months. I never got my period, then one day I had toast and and apple for breakfast and promptly puked it up....guess what? DS6 was on his way LOL DS7 was 5 months when I got pregnant. My first cycle after I stopped breastfeeding. I went something like 2 years with no period becuase of back to back pregnancies LOL
i really dont want another summer preg but i also dont want to wait until next march to start TTC again
i think we are just gonna not protect ourselves and let it up to fate....i stopped pumping now so hopefully AF will come so i can get an idea of my cycles again

YAY! I am glad its all sorted...
My step mum has 6 kidds, 2 of which are my dads, who altogether has 4 kids...
All of my step mums kids were meant to be twins... but she kept losing them. Anyways.
my step mum ened up getting her tubes clamped and she is having the depo shot, as well... Just incase cause knowing my step mums luck she will get preg again. And my dad didnt want his 'manhood' changed hahahaha....
Glad you're all sorted

haha GREAT to HEAR your both on same page!!!! How wonderful!!! Thats always super !!
Having that many kids would be crazy for ME - but all the power to YOU if you and your husband want to try for another, even more than one :))
My husband has his consult booked with the urologist about his, but the appt. isn't until December. I don't foresee either one of us changing our mind, but you never know, I guess! I think there's a reason they book the consults so far in advance (we've had the appointment since June!)
You know....If your husband really had wanted to do it, he probably would have just made the call himself, rather than asking you to do it. It sounds like he was trying to give himself an out! ;)

Crazy as it sounds, I'd like to have another one. I kinda would like to have them close together, like my oldest middle two are...14 months apart. But that would require getting pregnant around the time Lily is 5 months old...not sure I want to be preg again so soon, but we'll see. I'm gonna ask my doc what he thinks at my next appt just to see. I do think have them closer or father apart is easier. Having them like 2-3 years apart isn't...DS 2 is old enough to understand someone is taking his attention and it's caused him to act out. Plus he's harder to handle. Whereas having two 14 months apart it was easier becuase the older one wasn't quite old enough to fully grasp what was going on and she was easier to handle...not running as fast, etc.
ugh...my husband and i went through this about the same time....he was going to get a vasectomy but i already know i have to get a hysterectomy so we were going to wait and see what the ob says about that
well, then we started having unprotected sex and the talk of no more babies disappeared...he talks alot about how him and his brother are best friends because they are close in age....so, im thinking he wants another but its an assumption....his actions are leading me to think he wants another one but is probably afraid of another loss or premature birth....cant blame him, i am too
so i sit here in torment over wanting one more or calling it quits....i go to the hemotologist next week to see what they say about trying for antoher and then back to the ob on 10/11 to talk to them...its a huge decision to make and im not confident with it
i think im starting to get baby fever because id rather have them close and go through the sleepless nights/newborn stages at once and get it over with rather than get a break and then all over again...i guess im crazy
we are still having unprotected sex and i leave it up to fate at this point....we are adults and we know what happens when you have unprotected sex
