Guest guest Posted July 12, 2002 Report Share Posted July 12, 2002 I actually asked about that before we made our final decision, and there's a certain way you can do a tubal so you won't get pregnant. Your OB/GYN would actually have to remove a section on the tubes and burn the ends before completing the procedure. I told my OB I wanted no chances of getting pregnant afterwards and she's pretty confident this will work for me. She's done it this way for more than 10 years and she's never had anyone get pregnant. It's also a very, very permanent thing. No chance for reversal to try for a third baby.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 I appreciate your opinion Joy, but I would also appreciate it if you would stop sending me negative vibes. I'm sure some of the dozens of friends you have that have gotten pregnant after a tubal have been exceptions. I trust that it will work for me, and besides it's the best way to go for my own personal reasons. Thanks again! :-) Lori~ > In a message dated 7/12/2002 10:21:20 AM Eastern Daylight Time, > baybbreeze23@h... writes: > > > > Your OB/GYN would actually have to remove a section on the tubes and > > burn the ends before completing the procedure. > > Just so ya know 2 of my friends were cut/remove & burn that go pg!

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2002 Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 Joy, I wasn't trying to be a big meanie, really I wasn't. It's kinda like when you research something and you find what best suits you and your needs and you finally make a decision, but then there's always that one person telling you that it's not the best decision and you kinda wanna say " SHUT UP ALREADY! " .......I have never said that to anyone in this group nor will I ever and I won't do it now....I thank you for your opinion, I really do. :-) Take care Joy, Lori~ > In a message dated 7/15/2002 9:03:31 AM Eastern Daylight Time, > baybbreeze23@h... writes: > > > > I appreciate your opinion Joy, but I would also appreciate it if you > > would stop sending me negative vibes. > > Well I am sorry I'll keep my opinions to myself from now on.
