I'm looking for some FEEDBACK on birthcontrol. I just had a baby 3 weeks ago and my midwife suggested the IUD. I've…

I can't take birth control, but at a breastfeeding class I took, they said some birth control can affect you. So if you are breastfeeding then I would talk to your doc about which one would be better.

Loved the iud five years

IUD

@twinmammatobe, she knows I'm breastfeeding, she's the one who thinks I should be on it...since your more fertile after your first pregnancy.

@awelden, you never had any problems with it at all?

@twinmammatobe, why can't you take birth control if you don't mind me asking

@love499, everything comes with side effects, that's why I'm looking for person experiences, not WebMD.

nuvaring

@hippiebaby89, gotcha 👍

I was just being heloful that all

@ce5ce, I get blood clots in my heart and lungs if I take it.

What does your contact lenses have anything to do with the birth control your taking?

@love499, I know you were and thank you. but the Internet is not a credible source to look up medical symptoms. That's why I'm looking for personal experiences, considering my midwife thinks the risks of an IUD are minimal. The only thing she mentioned was infection. I'm leaning more towards the NuvaRing, but I want feedback on it.

your welcome tho I know my sister took her IUD out she pulled it out that gotta hurt

@twinmammatobe, how'd you find this out

implanon I heard u get burning irrataion in the virgina

@love499, christ that doesn't sound very good. I hope she didn't hurt herself.

she said she didn't hurt she had a cramp that all she crazy for doing that she could of done damage too her self

@ce5ce, all hormonal forms of birth control can cause clotting, that's why they say if your overweight, a smoker, or have any clotting issues or high bp, that you shouldn't take it because it can cause other problems.

no I mean for you @hippiebaby89 ... what were the signs that showed something was wrong

@ce5ce, I think that's why my midwife suggested the IUD for me because it's a non-hormonal form of B.C. and I had high bp during pregnancy and I'm overweight.

All BC causes side effects, the only BC I've had was the rod in my arm for three years. I maybe got 5-7 periods and that's all, I liked it and I'm going back to that one after I give birth if I can.

@gracelyns_keeper656, how was it when they took it out? I asked her about it and she said sometimes they have to dig for it.

All they did was numb my arm, and waited about 5 minutes then they sliced my skin open (I didn't feel it) and she took it out. If they numbed you properly you shouldn't feel a thing. @hippiebaby89

@gracelyns_keeper656, I don't have it yet. I'm just not sure what I wanna do. I heard the implanon is the best out of all of them.

@ce5ce, what do you mean? I was told I can be on BC while in BF, the other girl was the one with clotting issues.

oh haha my bad. I got confused because you answered. I forgot who I was talking to that fast 😉😂

@ce5ce, it's a genetic disorder. So everyone of my docs won't put me on any

Nope never just that it stopped my period after 6 months

But I'm getting the bar put in my arm this time I hope that it works

@ce5ce, I was just putting my input in lolol.
