Need advice about getting my tubes tied?

i'm 26yrs old, I have an amazing husband a 2yr old son and a 6 month old baby girl. I would like to know if anyone got a tubal a few months after the baby was born, like how long will I be in the hospital after the procedure? And what kind of pain will I be in? Need advice about getting my tubes tied?
Hey hun, have you talked to your hubby about him getting a vasectomy instead? Recovery time for him will be just a couple of days and the procedure takes ten minutes in the outpatient part of the hospital. When women get their tubes tied, the recovery time can span from weeks to months and from what I hear the pain is excruciating. Not to mention, a vasectomy is much less invasive and much less painful (despite what all the men say, lol) and they will only have mild pain for 3-4 days. It's much safer for him to get sterilized than for you to have a hysterectomy!!! Please talk to him about it or speak to your doctor and I'm sure the doc will recommend the same thing.Need advice about getting my tubes tied?
I got this procedure done after my son was born, the next day to be exact. I came home the next day and I was very uncomfortable. They go in through your belly button so you will have an incision there. It took me about 3 days to feel better. If you are planning to do this make sure you have a few days to relax afterward (like where seomone is going to watch the kids and do the housework for you), for me, my ex was NO HELP! So I was still doing everything and just miserable. I would say though, make sure this is really what you want, as the surgery to reverse (if possible) if quite expensive and equally as hard to recover from.
