Do you understand that?". He said no, he didn't, he'd had the vasectomy and shouldn't that mean that he and his wife couldn't have children? The doctor said "yes, you and your wife can't have children, but YOUR WIFE CAN STILL HAVE CHILDREN. Do you understand?". He understood and threatened to punch the doctor in the face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-15131557988047583472010-10-02T15:23:12.734-04:002010-10-02T15:23:12.734-04:00That's what a lot of women say when they are d...That's what a lot of women say when they are discussing tubal ligation...cut, tie, burn those babies.ER's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03203520439121823165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-35163025326991106742010-10-02T09:22:13.382-04:002010-10-02T09:22:13.382-04:00What a coincidence!

I *never* want to get my tubes tied; my opinion is the more, the merrier. What I hate is when people look at me like I have twelve heads or stare at me slack-jawed when I say I fully intend to have more. I've had checkers at the supermarket ask me, "Are you done?" when I'm in line with my three. Um, like that's any of your business???JoAnna Wahlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09942928659520676271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-48902409538363483572010-10-02T00:38:19.302-04:002010-10-02T00:38:19.302-04:00I have some friends who had a tubal after baby 3. ...I have some friends who had a tubal after baby 3.
