Can you carry a baby full after you get your tubes tied?

Yes: Having your Fallopian tubes cut and tied off on each end does not affect the hormones that maintain and promote pregnancy. Tying tubes prevents the egg released at the time of ovulation (fertility) to travel down to the uterus where it would "meet" the sperm and them embed in the uterine wall. A fertilized egg could be implanted in a uterus with tubes tied and all would be fine.

Yes: Getting you tubes tied simply interrupts the typical path the egg takes to get to the uterus and drastically reduces your likleyhood of pregnancy. However, pregnancy is still possible. With that said, your uterus should still be fully able to carry a pregnancy to term, if somehow, a fertilized egg implanted in your uterus. See your ObGyn if you have further concerns.
