We did pills for years, several different types. We're that 0.01% that can get pregnant even when the pills are taken as instructed and we have *3* kids to prove it I volunteered to get snipped after #2, but she said she didn't want me to. I didn't argue too much.

After #3 was born, Mrs Soundman got her tubes tied. Her OB/Gyn said he wasn't going to let her out of the hospital unless she did (she has other health issues and a 4th pregnancy could have been very bad).
