Any recommendations for birth control? I was thinking of getting the IUD.. Any of you ladies have it?! I'm on the pill now and forget to take it allllll the time 😫😁
I had the iud before we got pregnant and got it removed before trying. it's uncomfortable to get in but not bad. can't tell it's in there. I really liked it versus the pill. I was on depo for a long time but it stopped working and had weight gain on it (we kept switching bc because I was getting 4 periods a month)
i had it for like 8 months.. before the nuva ring i had the patch but it would come off in the shower.. and nope i dont think it would get lost.. lol the only weird thing is that you have to reach up with your fingers for it.. haha sorry probably tmi.. @oliviasmama1211
my sister said the depo made her gain weight, but she's so skinny so I couldn't tell where I'm more heavier than her, and it made me go almost down to my pre pregnancy weight(140, I was abt 130) and when I switched to IUD I went up to 170 and I wasn't even eating more or anything. I have stayed at 170 even after my last pregnancy and hope it has the same effect this time.
@lara93, how long did you have it in for?! I'm scared it will get lost 😂😂
@kelseys, really?! That's the reason why I want off the pill. My periods since I've had my daughter have been brutallllllll. I heard the depo shot makes you gain weight?! But everyone is different! I just don't want to get pregnant any time soon. So whatever will prevent that is good in my book😄
I had it after my first son I loved it never had a period or any issues everyone's body is different there's one u can put in ur arm as well
I think its the worst! I had it taken out after 6months. it caused cramping so bad I felt them in my thighs, bled heavier, and made me gain so much weight. I had the depo shot before that, and I lost all my weight from pregnancy, and no side effects, just a little more emotional lol and I plan on getting the depo shot again after this baby
Ugh the decisions!! Thanks ladies for all of your advice!! Going to make an appointment and see what my OB recommends for me because I can't make up my mind on food let alone birth control 😂😘 @kelseys @lara93 @dohmommy2016 @mamaof003 ❤️❤️
