Hey now lol. Lets not get carried away. o___o I would never survive 8 babies at once. Or ever, for that matter. Which is why I say M2M is a super hero!!! One of us is getting fixed after our second baby. lol We're not the type to have lots of kids. We just want two. 
HEY.......NO picking on me LOL!
I only sent Zero one baby girl vibe!
Have 3 babies Zero...the world could use more of you in it!

if you're even remotely thinking about numberr 3 now, don't get anything permanent done after number 2...(and it only makes sense to get him fixed, it's a lot cheaper and the side effects are less, and it's really no big deal).
Tell you what since we had 2 boys, that means you must be the one to get the girl (that we never wanted) to balance everything out.
Oh, and don't listen to Dadu, if you don't give us details we can't tell you what you're doing wrong...

lol!!!!! Well there will be no details until at least Friday, it happens to be that time of the month. bahaha.
You have had a vasectomy right IADad? How was the procedure and recovery for you? Also, does it affect you at all otherwise? Can you even tell? Does it affect sex at all for you? Does it bother you in any way shape or form? Does it change ANYTHING? If so - what?? I want to know every last detail from people who have had it done so that DH knows before getting it done. I would be horrified if it affected him in a negative way even if it wasn't a big deal. Sorry for the personal questions lol. I figured. You know. Since we're friends.
Oh and don't worry about the deciding on getting fixed thing haha. We will figure that out later. I can't really see us having three kids, and neither can Steve, all I'm saying is that we aren't 100% sure at this exact time. When the time comes to decide, we'll make sure we're sure. One thing that will help the decision is if this baby is a girl or a boy. We'd really like to have a girl so I could see us MAYBE POSSIBLY trying one more time if it didn't turn out right.

To but in, when I had the snip I had to shave my bits, mine didn't work the first time so we left it at that.
Vasectomy info
Vasectomy info
The procedure isnt that bad. It is a surprise though when they are tugging the tubes around to find out that they are connected to a nerve right behind the eye.
i always wanted 3.. it was just always my number.. but not for a while i don't think.. like 7 years or something but then if i waited that long i would probably have another one so that the last 2 are similar ages hahahaha decisions decisions..
hmmm, I'll try to be delicate in posting a response...maybe we'll have to take followup questions on PM or something...
The proedure was really nothing, other thatn feeling a little odd laying there with my junk out, but you ladies are used to that kind of "exposure" on a much more regular basis. It was odd to have the nurse handle things as if it were a leg (you know to ove from one side to the other...) Yes, I had to shave, but just enough to clear around the boys. The worst part of the procuedure was getting the novacaine injections, so, a short jab, but then the rest is completely painless. I followup the aftercare instructions to a "T" so no problems there. I would highly recommend the use of a jock strap or compression shorts, any extra jostling is unpleasant for the next day or so. You still have to use protection for a coupld of weeks until all the live guys get flushed out. You have to bring a sample back at the end of that perriod to confirm that you have Zero motility. My doc said that in rare cases ther can be "re-attachment" so I can drop off a smaple annually to check on that. Haven't done that yet, but probably will, just for extra insurance. Otherwise, I can't say I've notcied any difference, I mean desire is about the same,I 've heard for some guys it even gets better because they are freed of the worry.

oh, and even though I'm now almost 47 and we really need to be done, I do get pangs every now and then about "how about just one more" so be aware that you're feeling very well may change along the way, You may be dead sure you're ready to stop at 2, then a couple years later be thinking well, another one would be nice. So, since you (both you and annette) are so young, I'd advise against doing anything permanent right after the birth of a new one.
Thank you so much IADad!! I appreciate that info. That's very reassuring. It doesn't sound too bad. I'm thinking we'll wait a year or two after the birth of baby number two to decide on the procedure for sure.
You know its not all over with IADad, it is possible to have a vasectomy undone!! However I hear the success rates are low, but still its technically possible. So if you ever REALLY REALLY wanted another one you could give it a try haha.

Seriously though, I'll be 62 when DS 2 graduates from HS...I don't want to be too grandfatherly to y own kids...Xero said:Thank you so much IADad!! I appreciate that info.
