Birth control between pregnancies while breastfeeding???
We're not sure if we are done after DC is born (2 weeks). I definately will be breastfeeding and since DS#2 and DC#3 are only going to be 17 months apart..I don't want any mishaps.
DH will not wear a condom. What methods have you used for 1 1/2 - 2 years?

Re: Birth control between pregnancies while breastfeeding???
I used Micronor after both pregnancies...I was actually on it prior to becoming pregnant as well. I didn't have any problems, though I did become pregnant both times when coming off of it mid-cycle, which my doctor claims was the birth control "failing", so I guess you need to be very careful not to forget to take it, etc. I would be on it again now, except that the doctor convinced me to go on something else that is more effective now that I stopped breastfeeding.

What's PNP? I know when you say it- I'll probably kick myself.

PNP= pull n pray.
We were doing that for the last few months and one night DH forgot the pull part hence why I'm on the expecting list now 
If you want something accurate and low maintenance I would look into an IUD. That's my plan after I have #2.

Re: Birth control between pregnancies while breastfeeding???
Thank you:) LOL. I would and could not do that. I looked in into the IUI and IUD but they say that they pay if you keep them in for two or more years. Just thinking if we decide to have a baby sooner. Also, don't know if insurance would cover that. I will definately do that when I know that I m definatley done though.
Thanks.

I have looked into getting the IUD and my insurance definately pays. I didn't know you had to keep it in 2 or more years or they won't pay for it. THe doctor told me one year. I will have to look into that. As of right now we are using the PNP method.
