There have been several papers reviewing this data. My recollection is that the biggest regret factor is age<25 and unstable social situation - a bigger risk factor than the number of children.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
