3rd Trimester

s/o What kind of BC are you planning to use after baby?

I'm still undecided.  I'd like to stay away from hormonal BC, but I'm nervous about charting for BC purposes.

  • ooh good post i should really start thinking about that again.

  • i've said it before:

    ?

    butt sex.

    ?

    No, honestly, I haven't even thought about it! ?

  • condoms until we're done having kids.  Then DH is getting snipped (unless I have sections)
    BFP #1: m/c at 8 weeks; BFP #2: DD born 6/9/09; BFP #3 m/c at 5 weeks; BFP #4 m/c at 8 weeks, D&E; BFP #5 DS born 8/12/12
  • I figure if DH wants it that bad, he won't mind putting on a condom. Wink  I used to use the ring and LOVED it but am bfing so don't want to do any hormonal bcp

    just spit out my orange juice all my lap!!!!!!! lmao!!!!!!!!!!! I was thinking pills that are safe while breast feeding...

  • I'd like to go back on Yasmin once the Dr. okays it.
  • I've been thinking IUD, but one of my close friends had a horrible experience with hers so I'm a little nervous to do that.  I was on the pill for years before and it was fine, but I'm not sure I want to go back to that.  It was nice not having to take a pill everyday (of course now I'm back in that habit too)
  • Condoms, the Pill and I don't work well together.
  • We have always used condoms so that's what we'll go back to.

    Except this time we won't let Long Island Iced Teas convince us to take it offSurprise

    And yes, sadly, I am fully aware of how much better life is without condoms. :sigh:

  • I am not breastfeeding and plan on hopping on the pill as soon as the Dr. says it is okay!
  • I'd like to go back on the NuvaRing.

    Anyone know about hormonal BC while BFing? I'll have to ask my OB next week...

  • I will get the Mirena IUD again.  I had it after my second and had it in for a little over 3 years when we decided to TTC.  I loved it!  I got pregnant with my second while on the patch so I am scared of anything other then the IUD now for some reason.
  • Condoms until I'm done breastfeeding then I will probably go back on the pill.  Hadn't even thought aobut it until this post really!!

  • Ugh, I'm not looking forward to having to deal with this.  Over the course of 12 years, I've tried 3 different combo pills, the minipill, Depo, Lunelle.  Nothing works with my body.  We used condoms for a few years with no problems before TTC (which took 10 months.)  We'll probably go back to condoms but that makes me a little nervous.  I haven't done enough research into IUDs to know if it's even an option.
  • Probably none.  Unless this pregnancy straightens out my hormones and makes me ovulate without drugs, an unplanned is something I will likely never have to "worry" about.  If by the grace of God I manage to get a period after giving birth, then I'll see what my doctor recommends since I'll be breastfeeding. 
    I HAVE CHILDREN.
  • I want to BF, so no BCP for a while. I will eventually have to go on BCP again, however, because I have PCOS and won't have my cycles if I don't "make" them come. I assume we'll use condoms like we have in the past in the mean time.

  • I'm getting my tubes tied  :)

     

  • Condoms until I'm confident my cycles are normal enough for charting. DH will be getting snipped at some point not too long after the birth (before a year I'd say).?

  • Since, as my DH's urologist put it, we have a better chance of hitting the lottery than getting pregnant w/o intervention, we're going with zero BC after the bean is here. We've already discussed it.

     

  • I hate condoms so Mirena is the route i'm taking!
  • Condoms until we're ready to ttc #3.

  • DH and I will definitely go the condom route until I'm done b/fing. After that we're going to discuss it. When I came off BCP after 10 years I was much more pleasant person, so we're thinking I may just stay off it until we're done having kids.?
  • We're done. I'm getting my tubes tied. Yay for not having to worry about it again!
