Is It Possible....?

I know i am being freakishly paranoid but is it possible to become pregnant when you have your tubes tied? I had my clamped and then tied at the end. Plus I am on BC for acne. I said to rich if I ever became pregnant it would be a miracle baby for sure.
I have just been super tired latley,(but i am sure it is from my crohns disease being active), my period last month was much lighter(probably the BC kicking in, finally, even though i have missed a few pills), and I have had heartburn.
Just wondering if it is possible?
Thanks!!

I have heard of it happening. When my sister got hers done, they gave her some statistic (I cannot remember!), and although it is very low, there is a small chance.

In high school I had a friend whose mom had a "surprise" baby years after having her tubes tied. It can happen, but like the others said it is a very slim chance.

With everything you have explained, the chance would be VERY SLIM. However, I suppose anything could happen.....

From the statistics I read most pg's after tubal Ligations are immediatly afterward, bc the woman was already a couple of days pg.

But I soooo understand where you are coming from, I used to panic myself silly about the thought that I would get pg even after the TL, but it has been 9.5 yrs now and I'm still happily not PG LOL.

Altho everytime I get tired and sick my DH always says, maybe it failed (he would be very happy if it did, for the approx 5 seconds it would take for me to kill him )
