How many mamas started taking birth control after their baby was born? How long after?

I got the depo 7 wks pp just because I wasn't sure what I wanted but it did cause me to bleed heavier but in 3 months when I go back I'm probably guna do the nexplanon

@leroydoom, thank you so much I will take it into consideration

@plumm I haven't had any major issues, just the usual mild weight gain, I did have light to medium spotting for about three weeks that I started to think would never stop lol I had it in for three years and had that one removed and my second put in about six months. (3 years is how long it last)

Some women experience heavier bleeding, headaches, mood swings. Its injected under the skin so that's a turn off for some. I like it though but its definitely not for everyone. If you decide to get it and start experiencing a lot adverse side effects, don't hesitate to have it removed.

P.s.

I like that I have no period 👌

I got lucky I guess because some women still have periods while on it.

@leroydoom, thanks for your responses! How did the nexplanon work for you?

A lot of women don't want to be on birth control after baby out of fear that it might mess up their milk supply, but there's non hormonal options that are supposed to be less interfering.

When mine was about 8 months old, I didn't have insurance at the time but was tired of being paranoid about getting pregnant again (it was starting to ruin our sex life) so I went to a free clinic and had my first nexplanon put in.
