Got a vasectomy when he was 2 years old cause we would explode if we had a second kid, lol. One is enough for us. We've been incredibly fortunate so we decided we didn't need any more surprises. The doc who did mine was a military vet who went into urology after serving. I remember reading the pamphlet on the operation and it said the vasectomy only took 15 minutes. I asked him, "It only takes 15 minutes??" and he responded, "Eight." I like a good speedrun as much as the next guy, but I told him to take his sweet time lol. Ain't in no rush, doc. Recovery was super chill. Couldn't roughhouse with my son for a week or two, and that's about it. I've got some fun titanium clamps chilling in my junk now, so that's fun. I'm basically Wolverine. permalink fedilink source parent [–] OmgItBurns@discuss.online 1 point 2 years ago Never wanted them, pretty sure I'd have a mental breakdown if I tried to raise one permalink fedilink source parent
