ok. My husband & I agree that this is our last child. I am almost 36 weeks pregnant. I have a PLANNED c-section for June 2nd.
About 2 monts ago I signed consent to have my tubes tied. The doc will remove 2 inches & then burn the ends immediately following my c- section. He said it will only take about an extra 5 min or so.
I have also been given some info on a procedure called essure, where they go in through the vagina (about 6-8 weeks after delivery) and scar the tubes, permanently blocking them.
I am CERTAIN that I want a permanent procedure done. I did however love being on birth control pills ( great skin & shorter peroids) I am 34 yr old & i don't think it is so healthy to be on them forever....
I was wondering what kind of experiences any women have had having tubes tied ( with or without having a c-section)
Has anyone out there had the essure done??? I guess this is the wrong place to post this, but what have you ladies learned on all this??? any rumors or friend have anything like this?
oh, my husband has different insurance that does not pay for a vasectomy. my insurance will pay for permanent birth control. That is why I'm the one going under the knife.
