Is It Possible?

Is it possible to get pregnant after having your tubes tied? I had my tubes tied a year ago(they took out a section and cauterized) and I keep having this nagging feeling that I'll end up pregnant again. I also have been having dreams (for a over a month now) that I am getting a + pregnancy test, am heavily pregnant, or about to give birth.

What can I do next?

I agree with Kaycee, I think you're safe. I have the weirdest dreams about being pregnant and actually having labor pains. Dreams about being pregnant are birth of an idea like Kaycee said. Try to stop worrying!

Anything is possible, but it sounds like you are having some anxiety about it and it's coming out in your dreams. I'm sure the chances of you becoming pregnant are very very small.

it is POSSIBLE, but not common, and it also depends on the EXACT method used in your tubal ligation. a guy i dated in high school was a "late in life" baby born to a mom that had a tubal ligation and a dad that had a vasectomy. crazy things CAN happen, but you're prob just scared.

Yes it is possible. Ectopic pregnancy is one of the risks of having a tubal ligation. You can also have a normal regency they are just very uncommon.

I am pretty sure that it is not possible. Dreams are odd and usually are symbols of something. Being pregnant or being in childbirth is generally more the birth of a new idea or a new part of your life, not really anything to do with babies. My husband had a vasectomy almost 3 years ago and sometimes I still feel like I may be pregnant but the dr also cut out a section and then applied a titanium clip, but every once in a while I wonder...
