I'm getting my tubes tied at 27 and I'm scared of regret

...See more I found that when I spoke to other childless women who've had to ligations they've never wanted children and can't relate to my complex feelings. As a result, I'm looking for people who have similarly come to the conclusion of deciding to not have children or are not having any more children do to circumstance. I'm a single low income woman with a high risk lifestyle of housing insecurity and less than prim health. I have a history with infertility, life long abuse and ongoing poverty. I began considering about two years ago to get my tubes tied. After realizing since the pandemic I never bounced back financially and I have been making less money every year. This combined with increased safety risks (living in shelters and/or other dangerous temp housing ), childhood trauma (surviving poverty and abuse in childhood) along with my last failed pregnancy in 2019ish I felt I had to find more long terms and eventually choose sterilization. I had always wanted children but never under the poor circumstances which have been a constant in my life. I don't want another miscarriage or stillbirth and I'll likely never be able to seek infertility treatment or provide myself with a quality life that would be facilitate healthy pregnancy/acceptable for a child. I also have a horrible history of birth control complications, failing and inaccessablity due to unpredictable of SA, insurance changes or financial challenges. So tubial ligation.
