Vasectomy Who?


My loving husband went in for his vasectomy six months ago, just after Halea was born. I felt like it was a rash decision and that we should have one more baby, but I couldn't see how I would be able to handle any more. I was struggling with the adjustment of have four babies, and never wanted to go through another pregnancy again, so he had a vasectomy. As time has gone on and I've gotten my body back quickly, my heart has ached because I don't feel like our family is all here yet. This is where Heavenly Father has stepped in again. After two tests, Ryan is still fertile. We feel like this is a sign and we're not going to mess with Heavenly Father's will for our family. We learned after having Halea that his plan for our lives is way better than anything we can come up with on our own. So, when it happens, we'll be glad to have our family complete.

Same thing here, except my husband's first test was clear. We were both a bit sad. It was a very hard decision, and I struggled even as it was being done. I figured adoption was always a wonderful option, as we have terrifying pregnancies! Children truly are wonderful. It's great to hear of mothers who enjoy big families!
