Is Pregnancy Possible After Tubal Ligation?

I am a 30 year old mother of 2 who had her tubes tied last September after my second c-section. I am at least 3 days late. My period s are never late and I am on a 30 day cycle with my periods lasting 2 days. I have no sypmtoms realy to make me think I am pregnant other than no period and some headaches and fatigue. Is it possible to be pregnant after a tubal?

Hi,
Tubal ligation is almost always successful.Failure rate is low if done properly.If you miss your period for over 2 weeks then do a pregnancy test.
