Me either I was always told been informed its the woman's choice to be on birth control or not doctor has no say in if you get put on birth control has to be something the woman wants.  Where do you live mulaifa jw cause I do understand depending on where you live it may differ than where someone else lives

If you don't mind my asking,  where do you live? I've never heard of this being a practice.

Down here no one gets discharged without contraceptives(injections), i started getting 2month injections since i got discharged. My bby is 12weeks old

It's very normal. Side note: if you are going to start birth control now that you're ovulating again make sure that you inform your Dr that you are breastfeeding.  Certain types of birth control can drastically decrease your supply.  You will want to get the lowest dose possible and you may need to consider supplements to increase your supply to counter the effects.
