are there any birth defects to the baby if you have a baby after you have had your tubes tied?

Answer 1

The baby is goin to develop in the womb not in the tube.

Answer 2

I shouldn't think it would be related to having the tubes tied. However, the risks of birth defects do go up as your eggs age (they are the same age you are; one ripens each month, but they were all there in the beginning). So if you had your tubes tied and then had them opened, and were over 35 at the time, the risk would be higher for that reason, not because of the tubes.

Answer 3

Becoming pregnant after getting your tubes tied should not affect the health of the baby. Some physicians remove a piece of the fallopian tube and there is a very small chance an egg could reach the uterus, others remove them completely and there is even less chance. No changes were made that is a danger to an unborn infant. All the regular things apply that would affect the baby's health like not smoking or drinking. If this was meant to be then please get to a doctor to ensure that this child has the care s/he needs for a good start.

Answer 4

If one gets pregnant after her tubes are tied, then I'd be concerned about ectopic pregnancy. If the tubes were tied, but the process was flawed and somehow a uterine pregnancy occurred then I don't see why there would be more of a statistical risk of birth defects based on the fact the woman had her tubes tied.

Answer 5

absolutely not. If you had your tubes tied and decide later that you want a baby, the doctors will remove an egg from the ovary, fertilize it with your husband's sperm and implant it in the womb. There are documented episodes where some women who have had their tubes tied, have conceived anyway. The ovaries are not damaged during the process of Tieing the tubes. Hope this helps

Answer 6

If the egg is able to pass through the tube, fertilize normally, and attach to the uterus and grow normally, the chance of birth defects is no higher than a pregnancy in a woman who has never had a tubal ligation.

With a ligation and/or reversal, it is the chance of a tubal pregnancy that is high, but a tubal pregnacy (generally not viable after 12 weeks in utero) is not a cause of birth defects, but can cause fetal and maternal death.

Answer 7

I always understood that "having your tubes tied" meant you had become sterile. How can you have a baby after that? Is the operation reversible? Or were you fertilized in vitro with a petri dish embryo...I shouldn't think that would harm the foetus. If you're really concerned, and not just fooling around in Answers for the heck of it, talk to your doctor.

Answer 8

My grandma's neighbor had her tubes tied like 10 years ago and apparently they grew back together. She got pregant and her daughter was born with down syndrome because of the tubes being tied according to the Dr. So that is an example of a real life situation. Ia m preg with my fourth and plan to have mine tied so i hope they tie them really well..lol

Answer 9

Nope if you get pregnant after you get your tubal reversed the baby will be fine, and if you actually get pregnant with your tub's tied then your baby will also be fine. That has nothing to do with birth defects

Answer 10

Not because of tied tubes, they grew back.
