Dp is getting a vasectomy and I don't know how I feel about it.

[NoEffingWaytoSurvive]

Dp is getting the snip next month. We have agreed we don't want to have a child as both of us have children from previous relationships, and couldn't support another baby realistically.

I can't help but feel like it is very final, and that if we ever changed our minds it would be too late. I am nearly 40 and my fertile days are numbered.

I know it makes sense, but I still feel sad about it.

It's normal to have mixed emotions about loads of things, and this is no different. In this case, you just need to respect his decision and move forward.

I have always respected his decision, and have never asked him to reconsider.

It's my personal sadness that I will never bear another child.

I had the same feelings, but honestly best thing we've done. Makes things so much easier and less stressful. mind you his vasectomy was one that went well with copable pain and only a day off so not too bad in that respect, I know some men aren't that lucky.

I remember feeling like that. I didn't really want another child but I was also sad I wouldn't. That mixed feeling soon passed though.

I was going to be sterilised when I had my last c section and changed my mind at the last minute. DP would
Never consider the snip in a million years.

@Scrumptiousbears why wouldn't he consider it?
