If you want no more children it's something to consider, their are other alternatives such as a uterine abaltion, which will not only stop any chances of getting pregnant but also lesson or completely stop your period. Another option is to have your husband have a vasectomy.

hiya my husband had his tied after i had two very prem girls and at the time it was the best thing we ever done but there has been time when we say we would of liked the chance to have more children. he was 29 years old and i think it's a choice a man has to make when his older because it is final although it can be reversed.

NO!!!!!!! just because you have 3 kids, doesnt mean you should ge them tied. What happens in 10 years, you will only be 35 and you still might want another one.... you never know.

My question to you: what is or has been your motivation to have children? Some women have kids to keep their men, some have kids to fill a void, and some have kids because they are simply ready. Examine where you are in life and where you want to be, and if having another child fits that equation; then do what's best for you.

Personally, I would. At 25 the only way you can get yor tubes tied is with having multiple kids. If you don't want kids, I would go ahead with it. If something happenes, you can always have it reversed.

I think that a choice you have to make. You can use opinion from others. It is your body too. If you want more children, you shouldnt but if you are happy with 3 kids, than sure, but it is totally your choice. You are still young and have full life ahead of you.

My advice is don't. Only because you don't know what the future may hold. I had my third child at age 25. When she was 12, I wanted another. My fourth child was born a week after by 38th birthday. And the best part, my girls can baby-sit! What I mean to say is, you never know...

If you don't want any more childern yes, my best friend had it done and she has alot of probems with her menstral cycle being bad. You could always get back on the pill or some other kind of contreceptive.

I think you will do it when you are ready, if you are ever ready for it. Also I think if you asked about it and are hesitant to answer then I dont think you are ready.
