I don't have a plan yet but I was successfully on the pill for a few years before we decided to start TTC and I got pregnant two cycles after I stopped taking it. I never had any hormonal or medical issues with it so I think I'm going back to that route.
We used the pullout method for about 4 months. ONE time he did not pull out....and a few weeks later I found out I'm pregnant! Not sure what we'll do after the baby's here. Can't imagine going back to using condoms and really don't want to get on the pill and possibly gain weight. I could see us doing the pullout method again but right now I'm feeling like I would like to wait maybe 2 years before trying for baby #2 so I may have to suck it up and get the pill.
I never had issues with the pill and I was on it for a long time, but I would like to not go back on if I don't have to. We did the pull out method for about four months before we started trying for this one and never had any problems. We are still undecided on going for two, but if we do, it won't be long after this LO so we just need something short term. DH will definitely get the snip either after #2 or when we decide to stick with one.

Add me to the list of ladies who like to live on the edge! No birth control in our house! In all seriousness, our chances of conceiving on our own are SO slim we would happily welcome a "surprise" baby
I will say we are already planning on when to return to the RE to try for #2 and it will be sooner rather than later.

Gonna go back on the regular BCP. Not sure if this one will be our only, I do want to try for a daughter. As long as Ikey comes out ok after having been on my meds during pregnancy, it'll be at least a year and a half to 2 years before I'd want to try for another baby, otherwise, he might be an only child. Kinda sad about that, being an only child kinda sucks....
No plans for any BC here--we had to have a lot of help to get to this pregnancy, so I'd be shocked if we needed any active prevention. Any surprises would be welcome--otherwise it's back to the RE for us!

IUD most likely. We also have used NFP and PNP with great success, but after #3 I may not be willing to risk it. We'll see how I feel.
