Snip, snip it’s V-Day!
No, no. It’s not THAT V-Day.
That was yesterday.
Today THE Daddy
takes a big one for the team.
Family has spoken.
They have all agreed,
no more pregnancies for me.
Not so worth the risks.
If we do not feel
our family is complete,
may seek adoption
Frozen bag of peas,
a couple of days in bed.
I’ll be extra nice?
THE Daddy was good
after my two surgeries.
Repaying favor.
BUT evil in me
wants to give him a hard time
if being whiny.
My 2 c-sections…
you can’t possibly compare!
Self: try nice for once.

THE Mommy
The Daddy was a trooper. He's a bit uncomfortable right now, but is planning to lay low for the next 24 hours or so. Tylenol, frozen peas and rest this weekend.
Oh, and FYI. I almost broke out into an uncontrollable giggling fit when the doctor started talking about side effects. Apparently one thing that can happen involves a blood clot...which he said causes a mass that will look like a third testicle. I'm sooo mature, I know. I'm sure he was very impressed. I felt like a kid with the giggles in church.

Wow, big step. But think of all the worry less nights to come!
Great haiku!
I love it when men are willing to take one for the team. After two c-sections (me, too!), it is his turn. Hope everything goes well.
I've heard it compared to a bee sting. SOoooo not the same thing as a c-section!
Hope he feels better soon!
I was just having a conversation about this this morning. Good for your hubs for taking one for the team. My take is that if I can be pregnant twice, have 2 c-sections and breastfeed 2 babies for more than a year each he can endure a little snip snip. Granted I'm only half way through my end of the deal but still, it's only fair.
So jealous. I would love to have worry free sex!!
This is a big decision. Best of luck.
Yay Daddy!
Nothing says I love you like a big snip. (after you have your family) What a great valentine's present!
Does Hallmark have a card for that (giggles)?
Good going, Hubby! Excellent decision! My friend JB had one and said that to watch out for the young kids running in to you for the first week. You know what I mean. They only come up to your crotch. Just hold out your arms and catch them before they get there!
Yeowch. My hands just covered my crotch. Defensive reflex...
