Laws on tubetying may vary from state to state, but it's a generally accepted view that Doctors should not press upon patients their opinion. So what your OBGYN told you is soo out of line. At least, that's how I see it and I'm sure you do, too. I want to get my tubes tied, too, but I'm going to wait a little longer to do it.
