Pregnancy Info HOME

I have the same question. My husband had a vasectomy five years ago. We have only been married a few months. We have unprotected s_x (of course-we thought we were safe). Since Early June-have been having a lot of symptoms but felt like I was just losing my mind or wishful thinking. So i was just wondering if it is indeed possible to have a child after a vasectomy. I am afraid to take a test but my b___sts have been sore, swollen feeling, tender and have started to burn in my nipples, when the burning starts, within minutes, i start leaking a white substance. my period is off and other symptoms. has anyone had this happen to them, or know of someone who has? Please help. I feel confused because I didn't think it was possible. afraid to get excited, scared to take the test.

Steph I know how you feel I don't know how off your period is but go take the test amnd get off your mind it's just a few bucks anyway, right? Now if I can only take my own advice.

Steph, that sounds like let down...take a test and let us know!! :) Amy, you all are not crazy at all :) either that or we all are jk I think that's wonderful, remember family members can be wrong too! and Allie, you have the right mind set! God won't give you anything you can't handle!! He'll give you the graces you need to handle anything he sends your way, and you know that this baby is truely His will and has a distinctive purpose, he or she will impact many lives! God said to take up your cross and follow Him, bear His yoke and it will be easy because of the graces you'll be given. I've been praying for you especially since I read your note (a few days ago), Keeping you ALL in my daily prayers, amanda

OK I'm 8 days late and a neg. test result, am I making myself late? I don't understand whats going on.Neg test result was what I think was one of the saddest moments in my life. On the upside through all this my husband and I realized just how bad we want another baby. So we'll just keep saving for the reversal. The cheapest I found was 2500.00 with Dr. Leverett in New Breunfels,TX. Anyone know of anywhere cheaper?

Amy p., That sucks! atleast now you both know though. I found Dr Leverett too :) I'm in Texas my self, so if my husband ever decided to do the reversal, that's probably where we would go, but I did find two in Arkansas who charge$1750, Dr. James Bledsoe and Dr. Stanton MD. FAfter seeing some of the prices, it's hard to believe some drs. actually charge $8000 and UP! Here is the site where I found them, it's a list of reversal drs. by state, some have prices some don't. http://by-his-mercies.com/vasectomy.html Hope this helps :)

My dh got his vas almost 2 years ago. Our kids are 5, 3 1/2 and almost 2. I just found out I AM pg again. I've taken 8 (yes 8) tests in 4 days- like this: 1 faint positive Thursday morning, 4 negatives the rest of Thursday. negative Friday morning, VERY faint positive (different brand from Thursday's) Saturday morning, and VERY faint positive (different brand again- same brand got -ve on Thursday) Sunday morning (today). My concern is that since they aren't getting any darker that it isn't going to stick- that's what happened before. Once the initial fear wore off, (I would love one more but HE absolutely doesn't want any more) I have gotten excited at the possibility. I will be really upset if it doesn't stick now. As for the vas though- it was done by a military doctor who we never trusted to begin with- so it wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if he messed it up. DH never got his sample checked afterwards. He still won't go get it checked, even after I told him I thought I was pregnant.

Jen, have you gone to the Dr yet? Your story gives me great hope! I would love to have a surprise like that :) No matter what happens, atleast you know now that it is still a possibility!

I am sad to follow up with this- but there was a reason for the lines not getting any darker. Little Junior Bean did not stick apparently, and I began a painful miscarriage this morning. I am on painkillers today and trying to cope as best I can between my 3 kids and my own sense of loss. My husband is relieved, and STILL most likely won't ever get his silly sample checked. I like to think that since this has happened, maybe the Vas didn't work and we still might have a chance again some day. Anyway- sorry to be a downer.

:( I'm so sorry that happend. Atleast you know that it's possible now. As sad as this miscarrage is, it is also ful of hope for the future. I belive every life has a specific purpose, little Junior Bean just fullfilled his early. I hope you are feeling better soon! I will keep you in my prayers as you go through this difficult time.

same here hubby had vasectomy 6th aug2001 my p is late by 9 days have had 4 - tests . did have some bleeding early yesterday morn but had stopped by the afternoon am confussed but we both despratly would like a baby . could there still be a chance i am pg. reading this gives us hope

Either your just late, or you could be pregnant. I'm a__suming that your tests turned up neg.? Sometimes you can have implantation bleeding when a fertalized egg implants. This is usually brownish and seems like a strange really short period. If you are preg. and take a test before implantation the test will show neg. That being said, try another test. Dollar Tree, Dollar General and 99 cent stores (and probably others like them) all carry hpt that are not only cheaper than the grocery store, but also more accurate (they test for 25 miu and EPT tests 40-100 miu dep on which test, First responce ept is super sensitive too, but why pay 20 for 1 test when you get the same thing for 1 :) Hope this helps! What an exciting thought, let us know what you find out!! My dh and I both want another child, but he doesn't want to have a reversal, he's terrified of going under, so we pray for a miricle, not only for us but for all of those who regret sterilizations and would like another baby :) Good Luck, Keep us posted, and God Bless!! Jen, How are you feeling?? Any better?

For all of you who regret the vas. don't give up hope. My husband had a vas. three years ago. I went into the hospital scheduled to have my tonsils out this last Wednesday. To my surprise the nurse came in to take me to the Pre-Op room and asked me how many weeks pregnant I was. I was totally b__wn away, needless to say I still have my tonsils. Like most of you I had wanted another but I agreed with my husband that it was best financially not to have more. Last year I gave up hope and decided to enjoy my 2 daughters independence and work on my career. God has answered my prayers, it just took some time. My miracle is due in April. I haven't gone a day without crying with joy and my husband is actually excited. My prayer tonight will be for all of you to have your prayers answered. Blowing baby dust your way! CC

I was just curious if you ever started your period. I, myself am wondering the same, my husband got his vasectomy almost 2 yrs ago, and I am never late, and I am two days late, my period has always been screwed up anyways, but now I was on the track of every 17 days, anyhow, I feel like I did with my little girl who will be two next month, either way I will be excited, if I am, I know it is Gods will.

My fiance and I are both heading into our 2nd marraiges next June. I brought in 3 children and he brought in 2. My children have an exclellent sense of our family life as it is now but, his ex-wife makes sure she keeps his children divided from our family even though we have custody. He had a V after they seperated 3 years ago, we would love to have a baby together. We have explored reversals, but his V was so invasive that he's scared to do it again, not to mention the cost. We just one together, it feels like there's a piece of the puzzle missing and a new baby is it. Pray for us as we pray for all of you that are hoping and waiting.

My b/f had his done 7 years ago, and i am now pregnant!! I find out tomora whether it was an accident 3 months ago b4 we got together or some kind of freak of nature, good luck to you that do want i could be your hope, unfortunately I really dont want anymore and am distraught!

has anyone on here sonsidered adopting? just wondering because my hubby keeps saying that we should just adopt which i am not against at all, but i still want to carry and have one more baby. these last two months have been devestating for me every time my period comes. it is harder now because it is the anniversary of a lost baby. anyway, i am still holding out hope that some month soon i will find out i am preggers. hubby is telling me i am being silly and i shouldn't get my hopes up. anyway....just wanted to check in. baby dust to all.
