Birth control after baby is born? Help!

Question

What are all of you ladies going to use(using)? Comments welcome!!
I am 39 weeks pregnant today (wow, 7 days to go until EDD.. feels so surreal); but I haven't put much thought or consideration into what BC method to use after the baby is born. My Dr wants an answer tomorrow...
*Tubal litigation is not on the list, only because I personally am not interested in that. 
*IUD made it on the list because I know it's a popular BC method; however I know I personally will never get one again because it caused me too many medical problems/pain for like 6 years. I am lucky I was even able to get pregnant with this little miracle inside me right now!
  I would like to see the poll results of this topic and hear anyone else's BC methods/experiences!! 
Thanks girls!! 😀👏💙👶

Answer

Condoms

Answer

We are not done adding to our family so we don't plan on using any birth control. It took fertility treatments to conceive our first and lots of planning and opks to conceive our second. We'd be happy to have an "unplanned" baby btw. Aside from breastfeeding, which isn't 100% protection, we won't be using anything. I told my doctor we'd use condoms because they wanted an answer. I refuse to use hormonal birth control until we are finished having kids because it messed up my body's hormone regulation before having our first.

Answer

I’m due tomorrow and stuck on this same question. My doctor recommended the mini pill. I am not a fan of taking birth control pills because I hate the hassle and “omg did I take it” stress. I think that’s what I’ll be trying out though.

Answer

for those who are curious if the patch is "right for you"

Answer

Hubby’s getting the snip ✂️ I’m so pumped to never use bc again! 🙌🏼

Answer

I had an IUD and loved it aside feom the gaining weight and causing my blood to be too thin. I liked the fact that I didn’t have to worry; it was there and worked. Cause a chemical after removal but few months in and we got our BFP. I think I would do it again but only if I lose the baby weight because I would gain 10-15 pounds a year and that is serious.

Answer

My husband and I are just doing NFP (natural family planning). When I told my doc that after delivery he laughed and said “see you in a year!”😂 but we aren’t done having kiddos so I wouldn’t be too upset about that anyway!

Answer

SO is getting a vasectomy, I'm getting a kyleena because I'm very limited in what I can be on hormones wise. Nexplanon is my second choice.

Answer

We just use condoms for a few months then come what may. Ours will be two years apart, and we would be fine if the next came a little quicker or about the same again.

Answer

Not getting any. I want my body to mellow out naturally and breastfeed without having to worry. 
Not sure if I’ll go on anything after or not. Never liked BC. I don’t like the blood clot risks, and side affects.
