40 is young. I had 2nd baby at 40. Nhs recommends contraception into your 50s

Get your DH in for the snip! Mine had to have it as I’ve had enough surgeries due to fertility issues & anaesthetic issues & I reacted badly to the pill & coils so it was his turn.. one little stitch in the 🥜 job done! Mind you according to him it’s major surgery 🤦‍♀️😆🤣 well he should’ve listened & gone home put his feet up instead of going to the pub as it was still numb from the anaesthetic 🤦‍♀️🥴😆
