is it safe to start birth control right after having a baby or do you have to wait? i want to start right after if i can cause i know you're more fertile after giving birth
@lavender13, yeah because they couldn’t find the string
@scx327 My doctor and I discussed the risks. It's only a 5% higher chance of falling out. And worse comes to worst my doc has to put a new one in at 6 weeks. It's easier for me this way because I have RA and any uterine examine puts me in pain because of my bad hips.
@shaeslove, oh wow i can't believe they leave it in there with the baby
@lavender13, I have an iud now... lol and obviously it didn’t work. And I can’t have it removed until the baby comes out
@laurenray93, I think you should wait on that, I was going to do that after my baby was born but my doctor said that since my uterus isn't back to normal size, it's easier to fall out
@laurenray93, oh okay cool i hope i get the same options
@lavender13 nope my doc gave me the option of whatever birth control I wanted. Then at my last appointment she asked what I chose and I told her. She said okay you want it same day or at your 6 week. I said same day for sure.
@laurenray93, oh wow i didn't know they did it that fast. i just want the old school pills on the wheel thing
My doc is putting in my mirena at the same time as my c section.
Yes. Some hospital will give it to u before they discharge you
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
I want to have sex so bad , this waiting game is no joke 🙄😩😂 how soon after giving birth did you ladies do the nasty 😩😂??
So I keep feeling these lil sharp pains on my right side. You do get pains like that before you start your period right.? Remember I had that dark brown spotting for a few hours last month on the 22. My period suppose to start today.
I can’t believe some of you get on birth control like right... right after giving birth. I’m going to need time to heal before I do anything else to my body
@shaeslove, ohh okay i see
