Friday is the big day........

Postby nomore » Mar 08, 2006 10:39 am

Thats right.... Friday is the big day where DH gets snipped :) A few weeks ago, I asked him when he was going to do it, and he said late spring.... and I gently reminded him I was WITHHOLDING sex (not something I want to do acutally..lol) until he did it!

Well, later that week, he decided to make the appoitment. :) One of my best friends DH chickened out of his and told her he would take her to Bermuda if she got her tubes tied.... so I offered Rich the same deal (cuz- dang it, a nice vacation MIGHT make the surgery worth it :wink: ), but he said no dice....lol

He is getting it done!

Im REALLY happy, as we are both VERY sure of this, but in some ways, its scary as its so permanent (which is the whole idea...duh!!!). I know I cant do pregnancy again. I know I cant do the whole premature baby thing again (which is a good possiblity with the pre-eclampsia). And, I FEEL like our family is complete. So, I REALLY am very ready for it.

In fact, Im more bothered by the fact I have to do ALL the feedings the night after the procedure (since DH will rest and give up his feeding). So, I know Im going to be VERY crabby...lol (What can I say, I LOVE and NEED my sleep!)

So- if you dont mind... have a virtual toast with me...

CHEERS :)

Oh dangit, I don't have anything to drink right now, or I would raise it in a toast.

I will do it as soon as I go down and get something to drink. Will that work?

Robin, I'll take my next Zofran pill in a toast to worry free sex for you and Rich!! :lol:

I'm starting to think about what we're going to do too since I know I can't do this is again. My body can't take it, let alone how dependent we are on everyone for help.
