I’ve never wanted kids, it’s just not my thing. I’ve been thinking about getting a vasectomy for quite a while now, and I finally decided to take the next step. I called a clinic, went in for a consultation, and the doctor explained everything thoroughly. My procedure is scheduled for a little over two weeks from today. My family is strongly against it. They believe I’ll change my mind as I get older and end up regretting it.
I’m early 30s and my wife is pregnant with our first.
Before I met her 5+ years ago I had no interest in kids, not to the point of considering a vasectomy but I didn’t want kids. I planned to travel and do your typical no responsibility shenanigans. It was clean pretty early on she wanted kids and that really got me thinking what I actually wanted out of life. I’m happy I didn’t end it over kids and I’m super excited to go through this with not only her but a child. The plan is to have more than one and I’m 100% excited for this.
All of that being said, if things went differently, I’d still be happy living a no kids life. My opinion never really changed, I’m almost 99% sure I’ll avoid other peoples kids but I’m also excited for mine.
Congratulation! You’ll be a great dad. :)
