Tubal sterilizations can fail even when properly performed. Every woman who has one done is informed about the risk of failure when she signs the consent form for the procedure. Anyone who is not willing to accept the risk of failure should not have it done. To prove malpractice, you would have to show that the procedure was not done properly.

If she had babies, she did not have a hysterectomy. Hysterectomy means removal of the uterus.

I had a tubal ligation at the same time I had my 2nd daughter via C-section 1.5 years ago even though it took us years to get pregnant with each of our girls. I was 36. I am now 5 weeks pregnant. I didn't get the tubal because we didn't want to have anymore children, but because I had sever per-eclampsia with both pregnancies. Both girls were premature and both C-section deliveries. We didn't feel we should risk my life again and accepted that this was our family, just us and our girls. Now I don't know how to feel. Blessed because this baby happened against huge odds or scared because of the risk down the line?

Having your tubes tied does not stop you from ovulating, that is your ovary's job, not the tubes.

Congratulations!! I've had a tubal myself and I cannot even imagine how you must feel, especially with your personal circumstances.

Look into the Brewer Pregnancy Diet to at least try to help with your pre-eclampsia. My midwife really advocated that moms use this diet. Doctors aren't informed about "simple" things such as the way moms eat, unfortunately.

You know, it seems that people think that if they say doctors do not know anything about nutrition and say it often enough, it makes it true.

Hogwash!

Your Brewer diet site advises that a 50 to 60 pound weight gain is fine!

Actually, that much weight gain would make virtually all pregnant women obese. Obesity and increased pregnancy weight gain increase the risk of multiple complications for mother and baby, including the risk of pre-eclampsia.

The effect of gestational weight gain ... [J Obstet Gynaecol Can. 2009] - PubMed - NCBI

The Brewer diet encourages salting food to taste. Although sodium restriction probably does not help prevent pre-ecclampsia, women with the condition do retain sodium. Moderate sodium intake with avoidance of salty snacks would be prudent.

Eat Camembert cheese! (Forget about the fact that it may harbor listeria and is on the list of cheeses to avoid when you are pregnant.)

Is it safe to eat cheese during pregnancy?

The diet in total is very limiting, although it boils down to eating meat and veggies and avoiding junk. Exactly what we should do whether we are pregnant or not.

No one knows exactly what causes pre-eclampsia, but it is related to the placenta. Delivering the baby and removing the placenta cures it, and it can occur in abnormal pregnancies in which there is placental tissue but no fetus.

No one has shown that any dietary interventions will prevent pre-eclampsia or treat it after it develops. It most often happens in first pregnancies and does not usually recur. A pregnancy with a new partner increases the risk.

Women with recurrent pre-eclampsia should ask about testing for certain blood clotting abnormalities that can be treated and reduce the risk of another recurrence.

The article also suggests that doctors will prescribe weight loss medications and diuretics during pregnancy. Not in the US!

Anyone with questions about nutrition, pregnant or not, can ask for a referral to a nutritionist, That is a much better choice than this website. If you do not eat meat, seeing a nutritionist during pregnancy is an excellent idea.

I don't mean reversal surgery.

I mean naturally got pregnant after years of a tubal ligation ? Like maybe the tubes healed ?

I just turned 36 years old. I have twin 16 year olds and a 7 year old. 7 years ago I got my tubes tied. I went to the Doc today because I am having severe cramping and am 2 weeks late on my period. They informed me I was pregnant!! They knew I had a tubal ligation so they did 3 tests. I am for sure pregnant. 1.4% of women have the risk of getting pregnant. 1.4!!!

Yeah, but it was a cousin who borrowed the money from her mother to have it done but instead went on vacation.

Yes, there was a lady that worked for my ex-husband that had a tubal done after the birth of her second child. Just a few months later she got pregnant again and had a boy. She then had it done again. I think it is rare, but it can happen.
