My Wife Wants a Baby But I've Had the Snip!
Posted: 03-22-06 13:18pm

Hi guys. New here - hello!


Here's the thing - I had the snip 8 years ago, after my second kid (my wifes third) and now we're thinking that maybe we'd like to have just one more... We're more settled now, and it'd be nice, etc.



Anyone know if it's possible to have sperm extracted from somewhere? Or would I have to go the whole reversal hog, and then have the snip again. I'm not too keen on that idea...


Conception probably wouldn't be a problem - one of the reasons I had the snip so young (23, I think) is that my wife is practically a fertility goddess - she'd fall pregnant if we just didn't use a condom once just after her giving birth!


Anyhow, i'd appreciate some idea of what we can do if we decide to go for it!

Maybe you can talk to your doctor about a vasectomy reversal?

Here's a link that tells about what that entails and also about sperm retrieval if the reversal isn't what you want to do.

if neither of these options are good for you, what about having a close male relative donate his sperm and go with invitrofertilization.
