What type of birth control are you taking now?

The dr. put me back on the pill and I've been taking it for 2 months. I've been pretty good with remembering to take it but I was wondering what your experiences are with other birth control methods.

Re: What type of birth control are you taking now?

Robbie was conceived while I was on BCP.

Noah was a classic case of a failed condom.

I was pregnant and M/C after a dalliance with the patch.

For the last several years we've been doing PNP/Natural and haven't had a single incident.

I'll admit that my impending menopause has made us a little less cautious these days - but for some reason a stable relationship, a house and marriage seems to have been the best BC for meChat Icon

Re: What type of birth control are you taking now?

pill--FemCon Fe. I need it to control my periods, too, because I am anemic and have a long history with fibroids. I am considering Nuvaring and when I know our plans for sure I will consider Mirena.

Re: What type of birth control are you taking now?

after DD I tried the pill but it made me very moody (and believe me I don't need anything to make me more moody!!) so I stopped and went with pull and pray...well I must have said the wrong prayer one night, because I was blessed with DSChat Icon

now because of some complications I had after DS I was strongly advised to not get pregnant again - DH got sniped last week.Chat Icon

Re: What type of birth control are you taking now?

you pull and pray girls are daring!

Now that I have a kid, (and see all the work she is) and don't plan on another for a while.....we have never been so faithful to using condoms!!!!

There are many teenagers that really should spend a week with a baby..... 24-7.... and then decide to just pull & pray!

Mirena since June 2007. I absolutely love not having to remember to take a pill everyday and I also have very very light or no periods which is a bonus.

I have the Paragaurd IUD and love it. I love that I don't have to think about taking anything and that it is hormone free. I also like that I can take it out at any time and TTC right away if I wanted.
