[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Wow.  I went on a call and all hell broke loose.
My husband is not looking to start a family.  I promise.
He is a carrier for a very debilitating neurological disorder and doesn't want to pass it on to a child.  We have a good, full life and we don't want to add children to it.
I've done a lot of research and the effectiveness of diaphragms are not high enough.
On my way home, I'm buying a box of Magnums and telling DH tonight that I am going off my BC.  The only way he's getting any is by using a condom.  
I have a feeling that he'll get tired of the condom game pretty fast.  I'm done being 100% responsible for preventing pregnancy.[/quote]

We used condoms for 2 years until my DH finally went with the vasectomy. He went to work the day after the procedure and has said many times that it was absolutely no big deal.  [/quote]

OP here.  I told him this.  I'd rather not be put under general anaesthesia and cut open when he can have his scrotum numbed in the urologist's office and be home in an hour.  He hates condoms and I can guarantee that he will get tired of using condoms pretty fast.
I give it a week.

PP here and I would just be wary of pushing him because while it is very rare, complications can happen. We waited 2 years because I didn't push my DH on it, I just told him I was no longer using birth control and we would need to use condoms. He sort of came to the conclusion of a vasectomy on his own and when we discussed it I agreed it made the most sense. I would just feel horrible if I had pushed my DH to get it and then he did have complications. [/quote]
