Birth control!!!

This is for the ladies that are thinking of getting birth control after baby is born just wondering what kind of birth control are you guys getting? This is my first baby so I'm planning on getting on birth control after my baby is born but not sure which way to go... I dont like taking pills because i'm really bad at remembering the times lol...

I was looking into the implant in the arm. But still kinda nervous since I had bad experience with Mirena after my 1st child. If my husband means what he says he'll get snipped lol then I don't gotta worry bout birth control. Good luck choosing. There are so many types out there. Just go with whatever your comfortable with :)

I'm opting for ParaGard or tubal litigation. I don't tolerate pills and had really bad reactions to shots and patches. Plus, I suffered a pulmonary embolism after using Nuvaring that almost cost my life, so no doctor will prescribe me any hormonal contraception...

I'm going back on the Nuva Ring works perfect for me. Leave in for 3weeks take out for a week to have your period if you choose you don't have to. Since I'm breastfeeding I'm going to see if this would be a great fit... I hope so

I'm choosing depo again. I love not having a monthly cycle. But you still spot for your 4 - 6 weeks after birth but I was on it 2 1/2 yrs and no issues.

My ob refuses to administer the patch because it has such a high risk for clotting. I asked him about the possibility of it after baby.

I'm definitely doing the orthro evra patch! I've done the pills and they made me nauseous alot, and I've known to many people who have had problems with implanted birth control (arm & down there lol) and the shot. I loved the patch, and never had a problem with them. Definitely would recommend.:)

I have done pills, not a fan, and I had the mirena, it was a nightmare.  This is our fourth so my husband is getting snipped.
