Birth Control??

Ok Ladies.... I have my 6 week check up in about a week or two and I have to decide on birth control at that appointment....I have done alot of research and been on the Pill and the shot.... They both make me gain weight, the shot is the worst...and when i went on the pill it made me sick! And i had bad mood swings on it.... I love kids but LOL i definitly dont want ANY more right now so I need to figure out something.... Me and DH could use condoms but niether of us likes them....I was thinking my last resort would be the IUD... has any one had one? Bad or Good? Any other birth control suggestions would be great too!!

I seem to have horrible mood swings when I am on birth control so I think I will be considering the copper IUD, that doesn't contain any hormones.

What kind of BC were you on. I had to go on ortho tricyclen-Low because everything else made me sick as well...Have you tried this kind? I have also been on the IUD and loved it, but I dont think my old OB put it in right as it hurt during sex, But after I have one more this is def. what Im going back on Or at least try, I should say...
