After 4 kids it's time to unload the gun! any advice for after. I am guessing avoid tractors and bumpy roads for a few days.
Plan to have a few easy days. The main risk is bleeding in the first few hours so get a lift home and put your feet up and potter about for a day. Knew someone whose wife was late so he walked 2 miles home. Scrotum like a large orange which took a month to go down.
....and have the odd shower.

I concurr with all the above. You'll feel like taking on the world, but bad idea, steady away for a few days, and dont believe the rumours...

Had it done back in January, 2 kids was enough and the wife has trouble with the pill.
As said the waiting room is probably the worst bit.
Had it done on the Friday and went back to work on the Monday like a hero. Big mistake. Plan to have at least a week of doing as little as possible afterwards.

I was able to work normally that afternoon and never broke stroke but my cod's did swell and go black for a week.
I was on the nest the next morning an 'all.

Why was it a mistake to go back to work on the Monday? I just had the next day off, mind you I did take it steady for a few days, running or jumping I found uncomfortable for a few weeks

I won't go into too much detail but basically tb testing and all the running around that goes with it caused an infection.
