*~*tubal Vs Iud*~*
Posted: 09-15-06 13:23pm

Yesterday at the doctor, I signed a
release form so that I can get my tubes
tied after .Caitlyns born..
But after the doc told me about all the
possible life long side effects, and then
googling it and reading all the things
that can happen...
Im a little worried.
I'm actually considering getting
.Mirena.
But ive heard bad things about i.U.D's
too.. Like about accidentally getting
pregnant and the baby is born with the
.I.U.D actually feased with their body.
And the abdominal cramps and ovarian
cysts.
I cant go thru another pregnancy.
The perinatologist yesterday scared the
hell outta me when he said he wanted to
possibly admit me for .H.E.L.L.P syndrome
again. All because they found protein in
my urine and because my platelets were
slightly low. My blood pressure has been
perfect (yesterday it was 120/78) ive had
no other symptoms of .H.E.L.L.P.. I kept
telling them it was probably just another
.U.T.I (which they ended up giving me a
strong antibiotic injection in my toosh
before resorting to going to .E.R l&d)
so I dunno.. Thats why im so intent on
not getting pregnant again. Its not safe
for me or the baby.
I just dont know what to do.

do not tie your tubes!!!! You will
regret it in years to come. You are
still young and you dont know what you'll
want in a few years....I would recommend
the iud...Yes, there are failure rates
with that like with anything esle but its
one of the most effective forms of
bc....Trust me sandra you'll regret tying
your tubes.....

Sandra. I got the tubal done, but that is
because I have 6 children. It is all up
to you, but I know alot of people who do
regret it, and then there are alot of
people who dont. Me personally I do
regret it, because I love children and I
never know if later on in life if I ever
wanted anymore, but I did it.
Now.. On the other note. My neighbors
son is the same age as shyanne, and she
had the tubal done as well both of us
within a week apart same place and etc.
Well low and behold she just found out
that she is 5 months preggo.. So some
people do get preggo regardless.....

I know about the whole... Might want kids
later..
Im just worried about the fact that my
pregnancies seem to be... Not right.
All the problems I had with .Jacob.. Now
with .Caitlyn they're starting to worry
about me getting it again. .H.E.L.L.P is
dangerous for both me and the baby. I
just dont know if having more children,
whether we want to or not, is worth the
risk.

why dont you at least try the wire and
then decide later on if its really what
you want. There is nothing really
pressuring you to do it now or is it a
question of timing....Doing it at the
hospital right after the birth?

I would leave the option open, if I were
you. See how .Caty's birth goes. You
might not get sick this time around! You
said your blood pressure was good, right?
Besides, as long as you and your doctors
monitor your health closely, you should be
okay in any future pregnancies. Keep
those thoughts positive. :)

its not really the timing.. Yeah it would
be convenient to do right after shes
born.. But its just the whole.. Worry at
the back of my mind of getting pregnant
again and dealing with the same issues.
I know both procedures have risks.. And
im leaning more to the iud now.. I just
dont want it to not work and end up
getting pregnant anyway. Rob says he'd
get snipped, but my dad went and ran his
mouth and tried to scare him out of doing
it. (pain, recovery, whatnot. .You know
how guys are. They all somehow feel each
others weiner pain.)

i can't see how it would be possible for a
baby to be born with the coil in its head
when its protected by the amniotic sac.
For the coil to pentrate the babies body
it would have to break through the sac,
thus causing the womens waters to
break...
Anyway, i'm getting the mirena coil fitted
in a few weeks. My best friend has had it
for over a year and she loves it. No
periods and no symptoms (for her)

There is a lady who posts on here who had
to terminate a pregnancy because the iud
became embedded in her baby's head. I
think her name is sandyallen but I might
be wrong.

I've heard that getting your tubes tied is
reversible. Is that true??

Yes, that was me, and that was long ago
with the iud situation, they have improved
on them since the but things happen. If I
had it to do now adays in your situation
or anyone else that was young now adays
and was unsure about having more children
I would have the mirena just ask
cairifairy too, I know of some females
that have thm now and they are really
happy with them!
All the best!

it is but not for me. I had a piece of
each of my tubes removed. And it is
costly for a reverse

jenna it is, my mom got her tubes tied
with #4 and then had it reversed a year
later in which she got pregnant with the
last two of sibling not to long later, my
mom only had one tube at the time too.
Honestly sandra have you thought about
getting hubby fixed, the recuperation for
them is shorter (1-3 days) it takes less
than an hour to do and the success rate is
like 99.9%. Hubby works in specialized
clinic where the work with a
dermatologist, gynecologist and they also
do sterilizations he said most patients
came out of it more than fine. Hubby is
going next month to have one done, on his
own will (for those that already assumed I
forced him) he thinks two is more than
good although we thought about 3 I just
cant.

Yeah he's actually suggested it himself...
But like I said, my father tried to scare
him away from the idea. Im sure hes still
willing tho. I just dont want anything to
happen later in life.. Ive read that men
who get it done are at a higher risk for
prostate cancer, and impotence.
*sigh*
i dunno.
I guess the .Mirena is the best choice..
Since its easier reversed.. My mom had
her tubes tied after my younger brother
was born and I dunno if its because of
that or not but her periods are so erratic
and heavy. It may be menopausal... Or a
combination of both.. But im not sure.
