Vasectomy verses Tubes tied ... Any advice?

Well, he's right. The surgery for him takes a few minutes in a doctor's office and he out and about in no time. The doctor will deaden the pain receptors, make a small incision, pull out the vas tubes, cut out a piece and tie the ends, and close it all back up. Maybe a stitch, maybe not. Men I know who have had it done said it is relatively painless, though the position they have to be in to get it done is a bit embarrassing, and it takes a whole 15 minutes, start to finish including time for the pain killer to take effect. No walking bow-legged like they show in the movies. For you, the procedure is a little more difficult and is closer to major surgery as it is quite invasive. For you, though, recent advancements using small openings and working with a laproscope to see inside, means it also CAN be done as an outpatient procedure, though probably still with full anesthesia since they will be working deep within the abdomen. But still, the incision will be small, with maybe a stitch or two to close. But for you, there will be some recovery period since it IS quite invasive. So, in my opinion, it is six of one or half dozen of the other. Talk it over. Flip a coin. OK, so what about the worst case situation, divorce. If that happened and you each married, would you maybe want kids by that marriage? What about your present husband? Would he want kids with a new wife, maybe? The operation for each of you CAN be reversed, but the odds of it being successful in restoring fertility are really slim. All I am saying is to consider all the options, especially the worst case of divorce, remarriage and possibility of more children. Never say never...
