I'm 23yrs old, a single mother of a 4yr old & one on the way. I've made my decision of getting my tubes tied during my…

I think that's a normal reaction to have given how young you are and you really don't know for the future. I'm 26 and decided that I'm not ready to end that chapter in my life but I also do think We are done after this pregnancy (we will have 3). I understand your stance, but I wouldn't take it out on them for feeling as though you might regret it when you're older

If you feel that it's what's best then that's what will be . @janinee

@zayzay101, that's exactly how I feel. I wanna give my daughters the best life I can possibly give them.

At the end of the day you have kids some don't even have that choice . And it's your body if you feel that 2 kids is enough then go for it . No ones going to help you financially and those that do should be the only opinions you need to keep in mind . @janinee

@lilfree16, that's what I thought too till I asked my doctor & she said I can definitely get them tied as long as I'm 100% sure. I signed the consent forms & everything already.

i thought you needed to be at least 25 and have a certain amount of kids.

no problem. I'm with all the way on this one.

@polkadotcutie, you're definitely right ... thanks hun. I appreciate the support.

And if the day ever does come that you change your mind and want to have more children all you have to do is get them untied. Don't let them get to you or get you discouraged. Your life, your choices. And if you're supported by your mom and sister then you really don't need anyone else support.

@polkadotcutie, exactly. Their excuse is "What if you find a man that eventually wants kids?" If a man really loves me, he'll except the fact that I don't want anymore kids & he'll love my kids as his own. if not then I guess I'm staying single forever... I don't mind at all lol My mom& sister are totally supportive of my decision & their opinions are really the only ones that I care about.

Ohh I gotcha! I was so confused

It's your body. if it's something that makes you happy then don't let anyone tell you anything. They don't have to agree but they do have to respect your desicion because at the end of the day you're doing what's best for you.

I meant I made my decision during my 2ND trimester lol @thehowtohippie. I guess I worded that wrong.

You can't. I'm getting them done after I deliver this baby , which will be Tuesday lol @thehowtohippie

I didn't know you could get them tied while pregnant.
