My husband & I are debating on who gets the permanent fix. We have a 3 year old son and a daughter due in February. We're 99.9% sure we don't want anymore kids. I'm having a c-section with my daughter so it would be pretty convenient for me to get my tubes tied, but I've heard the risks and side effects aren't as bad with a vasectomy. My doctor said in most circumstances they would prefer the man to get fixed, but in my situation, it would be more convenient. What route did you choose and why (if you & your SO decided to do something permanent)?

Well, since I don't want anymore kids, I got my tubes tied. Hubby doesn't want more kids but was unwilling to have the surgery. Since I'm the one that would carry the kid, I took on the responsibility. I have had zero negative side effects from having my tubes tied.
