IUD Postpartum

Hannah

I just had our first baby, and my postpartum appointment is coming up in a couple weeks. I do want to get on birth control bc there is no way in hell I’m getting pregnant and having another baby ANYTIME soon 😅 however, I do not want anything hormonal bc of how hard it was to get pregnant this first time after being on the pill for years and then getting a hormonal iud after that. With that being said, I have been leaning towards the copper IUD bc it’s not something I have to remember everyday (which I will ultimately fail at doing) and it’s also non-hormonal. Has anyone gotten a copper iud after having a baby? What was your experience? What’s something you wish you would’ve known beforehand or something you learned? Would you recommend it?
