15. Well that's good.
I know you've talked about your kids before.

:)

Yeah, getting clipped can be a good thing if you know what you've got is enough.

26. Still, The Practicing Is Fun
I can't get pregnant, either. It could have something to do with the tubal ligation ... or maybe the endometrial ablation ... but something isn't working but we keep plugging away at it anyway!

46. I probably could if I wanted to.
It's one of the few things I've been successful at. Since both my daughters are preggers, though, it would be a bad idea. It's always embarrassing to have an aunt or uncle who is younger than oneself, and I would hate to do that to my grandchildren.

Mr. Blue is the snippee in my family. I still have all the parts I started with, including tonsils and adenoids :scared:

Had surgery. They still won't tell me what I said when I first woke up out of anesthesia, either! The nurse said, "Let me just tell you it's something you probably always wanted to tell someone." Is that scary, or what?!

Had a Hysterectomy (kept the Ovaries) 15 years ago. I don't regret it for a nano second. I had three children and loved being pregnant, but am glad those days are behind me.

Been reading about menopause and depression. Lots of links to one particular cause being the womans inability to no longer reproduce. If that's why I feel so fucked up it's on a subconscious level, cuz I certainly don't want to go back to babies. I just want the damn hot flashes to cease, and my sanity restored.
