So my husband loves kids, always wanted them. I've been uncomfortable around kids for my whole life and have been telling people im child free for years.
We met 10 years ago and while we had ups and downs he decided to give up kids for me. We've been happily married ever since.
On to my problem, I want a bisalp, but there is a lot going against me. Getting incerance to cover it, finding a doctor to do it, having enough money saved up for bills while I'm recovering. You know the drill.
After roe he offered to get snipped himself so I had less to worry about, I said no at the time because I'm the CF one, I want to make sure I can't have kids. You never know what will happen in the future and if we don't make it or if I unexpectedly passway I want him to live his best life. I feel like him getting snipped would close a door for him and I feel guilty about it.
We just finished building our dream house so money is tight, I want to get the surgery soon as I don't like the way the world is going but money is the biggest thing in my way. I can go to 40 different doctors, my job is understanding and will give me time off, but I just can't afford to be out of work right now.
He brought up getting the snip again. I want to say go for it but the guilt is holding me back.
Someone talk some sense into me and tell me I'm being dumb. Maybe people in the same situation as my husband.
Do you worry about regret? How are you so ready to drop such a big life goal for love?
