Birth Control

Ladies - Tell me what you are using and why you like it.

I have always been a BCP girl. I went back on the pill after DD was born. I knew that it would decrease my milk supply but was planning to stop pumping in a month so I wasn't concerned. However, it has dropped my supply in half and I will have trouble just keeping up with DD without freezing any of it. I am considering the mini pill but was curious what others use. I know there are soooo many options out there and I need to find the one that works for DH and I.

TIA!

I used mini pill after DS1. I had no problems and a regular cycle.  I was one of the unfortunate to get my period after a few months while still BFing.   I will get a IUD this time because we are not having anymore.  DH will get a vasectomy at some point.

I got the Mirena IUD after DS1 and will be getting it again in a few weeks.  It is safe for BFing
