Has anyone had the snip ?

This might help - from the NHS

Recovering after the operation (The Snip - so called because it's TRIVIAL!)
It’s common to have some mild discomfort, swelling and bruising of your scrotum for a few days after the vasectomy. If you have pain or discomfort, you can take painkillers, such as paracetamol. Contact your GP for advice if you are still experiencing considerable pain after taking painkillers.

(According to folks on here you're ready to go in a couple of days). .

Meanwhile, after 9 months of throwing up, pain, sleepless nights, and 2 days of labour your Mrs has to face:-

Your body in the first few days

Your body will have been through big changes over the past few days.
Your breasts - Chance of cracked and bleeding nipples due to breastfeeding.
Mastitis is a condition that causes a woman's breast tissue to become painful and inflamed. It can usually be treated easily, but it's important to see your GP if you think you have it.
Mastitis is most common in breastfeeding women. Up to 1 in every 10 women who breastfeed are affected, usually within the first three months after giving birt
Your abdomen
Your abdomen (tummy) will probably be quite baggy after delivery. Despite delivering your baby and the placenta, you'll still be quite a lot bigger than you were before pregnancy.
This is partly because your muscles have stretched. If you eat a balanced diet and get some exercise, your shape should gradually return to normal.
Breastfeeding helps because it makes the womb (uterus) contract. Because of this, you may feel quite painful period-type cramps while you are feeding.

Your bladder
It's quite common after having a baby to leak urine accidentally if you laugh, cough or move suddenly. Pelvic floor exercises can help with this. You can find out more about incontinence and where to get help on the Bladder and Bowel Foundation website.
If the problem lasts for more than three months, see your doctor, who may refer you to a physiotherapist.
Stitches, piles and bleeding after birth

If you've had stitches after tearing or an episiotomy (cut), bathe the area often in clean, warm water to help it heal. Have a bath or shower with plain warm water. After bathing, dry yourself carefully.
In the first few days, remember to sit down gently and lie on your side rather than on your back.
If the stitches are sore and uncomfortable, tell your midwife as they may be able to recommend treatment. Painkillers can also help.
If you're breastfeeding, check with your midwife, GP or pharmacist before you buy over-the-counter painkillers, such as ibuprofen or paracetamol.
Stitches usually dissolve by the time the cut or tear has healed, but sometimes they have to be taken out.
Going to the toilet
At first, the thought of passing urine can be a bit frightening because of the soreness and because you can't feel what you're doing. Drinking lots of water dilutes your urine, but tell your midwife if you really find it difficult to pass urine.
You probably won't need to open your bowels (have a poo) for a few days after the birth, but it's important not to let yourself get constipated. Eat plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, salad, wholegrain cereals and wholemeal bread, and drink plenty of water.
Whatever it may feel like, it's very unlikely that you'll break the stitches or open up the cut or tear again. It might feel better if you hold a pad of clean tissue over the stitches when doing a poo, and try not to strain.
Piles
Piles (haemorrhoids) are very common after birth, but they usually disappear within a few days. Eat plenty of fresh fruit, vegetables, salad, wholegrain cereals and wholemeal bread, and drink plenty of water. This should make bowel movements easier and less painful. Don't push or strain as this will make the piles worse. Let your midwife know if you feel very uncomfortable and they will be able to give you an ointment to soothe the piles.
Bleeding after the birth (lochia)
After the birth, you will bleed from your vagina. This will be quite heavy at first, and you'll need super-absorbent sanitary towels. Change them regularly, washing your hands before and afterwards. It isn't a good idea to use tampons until after your six-week postnatal check because they can cause infection.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition where a clot develops in the deep veins of your legs. It can be fatal if the clot travels from your legs to your lungs.
Pregnant women and women who have had a baby in the past six weeks are among those who are more at risk of DVT. Flights that last more than five hours, where you sit still for a long time, may further increase your risk.

Long term damage to bladder, tubes bowel and reproductive/ sexual organs is not uncommon, but can be rectified with exercises and further surgery if required.

A bit unreasonable of your Mrs, I reckon.....

Hope your knackers don't hurt too much.....

 

I know, I'm sorry, I'm still apologising to my other half for the time I kept him away from "wetting the Baby's Head" by taking so long to pop it out. I'm truly sorry.

 

Lol, Seriously, Small price to pay. It's a couple of days discomfort. You'll be reyt.
