sent DH for referral for the snip and he came home instead wanting to....

..... go for baby #3

if you got a positive opinion re the blood clots would you go for it?

Only you can decide YG!!! We're about to have no3, and I keep telling myself to REMEMBER how utterly wretched being pg can be - sickness was MUCH worse this time, being sick 3 or 4 times a day for weeks, when only felt sick with the other 2, trying to manage a 2 year old when 36 weeks pg is not much fun, children demanding your attention the whole time when you just want to sleep, the achey pelvis, not being able to get comfortable at night, needing the toilet all night, BH contractions, heart burn.....

BUT, at the end of it all is a new baby! But you need to decide if you can cope with another, financially, emotionally, space wise in your house.

Have fun deciding!!!

Does he really want another or does he just not want to say "never'? Presumably he felt that 2 was enough when he was in the waiting room? I would give him a cooling off period and then go back to it.

when we first go together he always said he wanted 3 kids. But then we had 2 DDs, we went through a really bad time, he was made redundant and we went to hell and back. So we decided 2 was enough. But every so often he would talk about how he wanted 3 kids.

You won't have any time for doing craft stuff for ages though :)

Well it does sound more like he actually wants another baby than that he just can't face the snip. Another 6 months to think about it might be a good idea.

if we do go for it, it won't be until this time next year. We have been very fortunate when ttc before, so I would hope that it will be straightforward again.

i would say he wants another child as asking to ttc again is a rather drastic way of trying to get out of a vasectomy!

Are the clots not something that can be treated with heparin throughout the pregnancy? (I ask as someone with a clotting disorder during pregnancy...)

But are placental clots the same as clots in general?

(Asking as one who has had a pulmonary embolism and nasty heparin injections!)

My thing can cause clots in and calcification of the placenta. As it can also put me at higher risk of dvt, I guess it's the same clot-causing mechanism - but the microvasculature of the placenta is probably more at risk.
