Birth Control
posted 21st Sep
I'm kind of wondering what to get on this time.
I've gotten pregnant on both the NuvaRing and the mini pill. While I was on the pill we were also using condoms. I gained a ton of weight with the Ring.
I had the copper IUD for a year but got it taken out because the spotting between periods was ridiculous and the cramps, on and off my period, were horrendous.
I won't do the needle or the patch because I've heard bad things about them both.
Other than becoming a nun, what options do I have?

I had the depo and for the most part, it wasnt bad [just a lot of on and off spotting] i didnt gain any weight and no mood swings. I will admit though, that it kinda hurts my feelings that i wont even be able to try for more babies until DD is a year and a half because it takes you a year just to be fertile again. But, if you're sure that you dont want any babies between then, then you could look into that.
