child free… forever!
It dawned on me just now to post in this subreddit (so that i could have people be excited with me) that I (25f) am officially childfree forever!!!! I was approved for a bilateral salpingectomy and have since successfully had the surgery. Most of my friends have had a positive response, but my very religious family is more focused on the fact that i “could always adopt” if I change my mind in the future. While that has been irritating to hear as I slowly inform people of my exciting news, I am extremely grateful I was able to find a doctor willing to listen to my wants as a human being and that was willing to perform the surgery for me even though I am only 25. They also found endometriosis during the surgery, so double plus as I no longer will have insanely painful periods!
