Hi all, my husband is booked in this week for the snip, we had been booked in about 8mths ago, but when I was asked in the consultants room was I 100% ok with the irreversible decision, I burst into tears! So we had to postpone. I am so confilited, I've 2 little ones, and know I don't really want any more, it's the finality of the decision that is getting to me. I suppose I was wondering if anyone had done it, what was your thought process.

He volunteered, he didn't want me on the pill long term. I did sort of regret it years later when our financial situation was much more favourable but actually it was the right choice as he's since left me, if I had a little one it would have been harder. Wouldn't mind another but would be irresponsible at my age, kid would have retired parents by sixth form.

See I have been thinking, if I had all the money in the world, and a massive house, would I want another kid, but the truth is, I would much rather spoil the two I have. They are perfect age together, and I feel like I am getting some sort of my life back, and can take them places, if I did have another baby, it would be 3/4 years before I am back to this stage, and my eldest would be 8/9! I feel like I could give the two.i have more attention, but feel selfish thinking that way?! Am I mental!

What does your DH want?

It is his body and the final decision is his.
