Hi...just wanted to say I replied to a post about Essure...I'll post it here as well in case you don't see it. Are you both in the Twin Cities? I don't know what I'm looking for other than reassurance...
mikeandmonica and tigger-are you both in MN? That is where I am and I am seriously considering essure in the next year or so. We just had #2 in January and I have been on depo since because we think we are done with 2. After two cs, I was going to have DH go for the vs until my OB told me about Essure---actually I saw the commercials while on mat leave and then she told me about it when I went for my 6 week pp. She is one of the providers and spoke very highly of it. She said they have had 100% succes rate and it is noninvasive unlike the tubal or vs.
I don't know anyone who has done it personally and the permanence makes me a little nervous, which is why we are not doing it now but may consider it in a year or so.
As for weight gain on depo...could that be part of my problem?!?!?! I was doing so well and lately the scale has started to creep back up with nothing else changing. I know it isn't only the depo, but it makes sense that it could be yet another contributing factor. Interesting!
Re: ***mikeandmonica & tigger***
Yes, that was me in the back of the car!
LOL That is funny you remember that. I like that I am considered a Newbie again even though I've been posting on the Knot/Nest/Bump since at least 2003.
I was on depo back in college but I guess I just forgot about the weight gain effect. Oh, well! I'm working on getting motivated to do something about it...it is just hard with a toddler and newborn and working full time. I've got to hit rock bottom soon!
I go to Oakdale OB Gyn so that is who I would go through for Essure.
Where did you end up for daycare?
