Planned Parenthood Great Plains is holding a free two-day vasectomy clinic next month, and all the spots filled up in less than 48 hours.

Nah, but was keeping it safe/covering my bases given my age. And it was from my psychologist not psychiatrist (should have clarified).
Fair enough, that makes sense. I would have done the same. In our case, we wanted a kid (after 10 years of child-free marriage) and then my wife got an IUD, which should last until menopause, which is starting, so we should be in the clear.
Good to hear! Yeah they’re fairly liberal with giving vasectomies here, plus most are ‘microsurgery’ ones which are technically* reversible. I’ve heard trying to get women’s steralisation is SIGNIFICANTLY harder though unfortunately and a lot is “Oh, well you might want kids later!”
*Maybe…
She wasn’t sterilized. An IUD isn’t sterilization, it’s long-term contraception. If we really wanted another kid, she could have it removed, which is relatively easy and painless (it involves pulling a string essentially). Her gynecologist suggested it after our daughter was born and she followed what her gynecologist suggested. It seems to have worked out. I don’t remember why it was suggested, but it was more than just ‘you won’t get pregnant again.’ I think something to do with regulating her period? I’d have to ask her and it’s kind of a weird thing to bring up out of the blue.
Oh sorry, I went a bit tangential with my thinking there :) Yeah IUDs are usually very effective - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huy2H7fJnV4
