April 08 mums...contraception?

[cheezelkat]

What contraception, if any, do you plan on using? (No more kiddies here for a while :p )

I am trying to decide between the mini pill and mirena...don't know yet though!

[QTB]

IUD here :)

i dont like synthetic hormones so the IUD sounds like the best thing for me :)

[LilMrsC]

As I am not a b/f mummy :(:hissy: I guess I will just be going back on the normal pill.

Does anyone know when I can do that?

[Love is all you need]

Oh Nic :hugs: I'm not a breast feeding mummy either anymore......

I think you can go back on the normal pill once your period returns....don't quote me on it but that's what I have heard.....

I think I'm going to get the "rod" in my arm thingy.....and make sure DP uses protection I don't want another one till we're married and Evie's at least 2 1/2 when second bubs is born LOL........I couldn't handle two under two lol.......

[cheezelkat]

Yes, Jess is right in regards to the normal pill. :)

LOL Jess, you sure you don't want a loaner of a 2 year old to see what its like? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
I am not having anymore until these 2 are in school! I couldn't handle any more nappies :barf: . I'm missing being pregnant so badly though and I get all sad and emotional when seeing other pregnant women. I miss my tummy.

Well I'm single and don't plan on getting lucky anytime soon so I guess that makes things a little easier on me! :p

I won't be using anything other than condoms and common sense though because I have personal beliefs that don't allow me to use any other form of contraception.

As I said though, no sex for 100 years for me! :laughing:

[Love is all you need]

LOL CK......mmmmmmmmmm maybe I should just to see how I go lol.....ha ha ha ha.......probably will change my mind then lol.....though I want two close together and then (if nature would allow) a third later on.....who knows but yes definitely not the next 2.5 years....

But I heard from a friend today that you can feel the "rod" in your arm like a harder part of your skin and can move it :S....

[Elmofan]

What ever I can use while breastfeeding which I guess would be the mini pill mix with a little common sense and condoms :)

[workin'mumof2]

jess - ive had the "rod thingy" in the arm :laughing: forgot the tech term but u cant move it :confused: and it lasts for 3years and u can remove it b4 hand..

me idk how about just not have sex. coz it scares me sh!tless right now even thinking about it :(

[jriley]

im going the mirena im getting it in next week at my 6 week check i had it in after makaila and it was great but this time it will stay in for the 5 years

[NZMEL]

I haven't really decided what way I will go yet....before Jordyn I was on depo injection for over 5 years, and I felt that I gained too much weight (some gain and some loose) from that but it did work well for me.....

I'm with you Rosie - I just couldn't imagine DF being anywhere near that area of me for a while yet....poor DF :kiss: but he understands :)

[Missus S]

I'm on the mini pill already. And my darling DH has said he'll get the vasectomy for my birthday in June :yelclap:

My sister had the Mirena thingo and we were chatting about it the other day...............she said she was in quite a bit of pain the day it was put in and she has no periods but light breakthrough bleeding every now and then which is a bit of a pain as you never know when to expect it.

:iagree: that's what I am doing too......

[Eloise&Charlie'sMum]

I am a bottle feeder so my options are unlimitted...well so I thought :o...but no I am allergic to a particular hormone that goes into most contraceptives hence the infertility problems that where cause after years of being on them when it came time to have my children:(..

Anyway I finally found some thing I can take YAY.."Yasmin" which is a form of "the pill", I have been taking it for 5 days now and so far so good !!!

Oh and DH never being here is another sure fire way of me not having any little woopsy doo babies anytime soon :laughing:
