It’s hard to be not quite 24, have a daughter who is almost four, a son who will be two and plastic clamps on your tubes. It’s scary to think that you could be so done with creating, nurturing, having and raising babies so early in your life. Logically, I know we made the right choice (and if we want, we can always save up and then pay $5k – $8k to have the clamps removed in a minimally invasive procedure), but emotionally it’s hard. Whenever I see pregnant women, infants, breastfeeding women and babies, bassinets and tiny little outfits I want to cry at the parts of motherhood that I’ll probably never again experience.
