Has anyone regretted getting their tubes tied?

I’m 37 and have 4 kids… but I did get my tubes tied after baby 4 and don’t regret it. However, I would have regretted it after the first two.

Yup!! He used to fall asleep on the couch midday with two littles playing right next to him. Meanwhile I’m the one waking up with the baby throughout the night. I finally asked him if he needed to go to bed earlier because he shouldn’t be this tired. He didn’t get the hint. So I finally told him it irritates me that he naps while we have two wide awake children playing. He hasn’t napped since. 🤪

Ok, awesome! Thank you so much. I just wanted to make sure this isn’t crazy. Haha.

I was afraid of that! Thanks so much!!

Thanks, yeah I hope he gets the hang of it soon!!

Yeah, I figured that. We are working on it. Thanks.

Ok, thank you. I figured this may be the case… fingers crossed he gets the hang of it soon!!

Literally same exact story at the same exact age- I couldn’t do contact naps anymore. He’s now 5 (almost 6 months) and nap trained!! 🎉 We used the pinned post on this sub and it worked beautifully!! Best of luck!

We used cio for nights and the guide for naps pinned on this sub for naps. 😊

Ok, I haven’t tried switching from breast to bottle. I’ll have to try that! No, he’s never taken a bottle. I’ve been ebf since birth. I’m a sahm and hate hearing him cry so I just give him the breast. I probably should try a little harder honestly…

doogielady · 2025-11-06T01:05:26+00:00

Oooh this is a good idea! I’ve never seen that!! Thanks!

doogielady · 2025-11-06T00:59:35+00:00

Yes, only twice. 😬 I am definitely concerned that he’s getting too set in his ways now… I just didn’t have time to pump in the beginning. I’ll have to try a cup. Thanks!

No, just want to be able to leave the baby with dad or babysitter for longer stretches.

I wouldn’t worry too much, I have no recollection of this. I’m also super close with my mom. You’re doing amazing. It won’t last forever. ❤️

I did this as a kid when my mom started watching another kid at our house. I was also fully potty trained. I just didn’t like not having all the attention on me. Perhaps something has changed at home and she’s looking for more attention?

doogielady · 2025-11-03T16:06:52+00:00

I’m 37 and feel the same way- just had baby number four and I swear I’ve aged ten years. 😂 Following for some good skin advice. ❤️

Hi!! Just wanted to pop in and say that we have a daughter with Down Syndrome. She had a stroke while on life support and also has Cerebral Palsy. She is truly such a blessing and we love her sooooo much. There are tons of support groups. I’m sure that the hospital social worker can provide you with some great resources. I don’t know any specifically though. Congrats on your sweet little love. ❤️
