Hi,
You did not say when you had your last period and whether you used to have regular cycles. Vasectomy has a 1% failure rate. Since you did not have any problem so far in these two years, you should reconsider your diagnosis of pregnancy. You should get your blood tested for the presence of beta-hCG and correlate the findings of a clinical examination by your gynecologist. Good luck.
