I'm forty and just gave birth back in Dec. I was very insulted while in the hospital by two of the doctors on call in my OB/Gyn office. They both tried to convince me to have my tubes tied and kept talking about how old I was. I thought they were out of place being that they were not my personal doc and knew nothing of my heath, personal life, etc.... I left the hospital extremely hurt.
I remember my mom telling me that the reason she had her tubes tied is because her doctor was mad at her for getting pregnant again so she felt she had too. I know that is nuts but that is how she felt back in the 60's. She is passed now.
I was wondering if many other women are receiving this type of pressure from their physicians?
