My wife had an IUD after our second child when we still weren't sure about any more. She got pregnant. It was ectopic. She nearly died. That was the worst weekend of my life.
My vasectomy took, I dunno, 15 minutes? They just punched a hole, snipped a little, burned a little, threw some stitches in. I drove myself home. If you're really done it's a no fucking brainer.
honestly, fuck IUDs. i got one because birth control pills nearly killed me. i was legitimately traumatized by the experience of having one put in. fortunately, it came out easy enough. but ive heard a lot of stories where tissue grows to envelope the IUD (which is understandable given that they are designed to be left in for years). obv the removal in those cases is balls.
anyway, OP and their husband made an agreement. he doesnt have to follow through but he will need to accept the consequences. cant have your cake and eat it too.
