Birth control

Im 8 weeks postpartum and I’ve been debating on if I want birth control or not, I feel like it’s going to mess with my hormones because they’re already bad as it is!! but I don’t want another kid right now and I’m beyond scared to be active with my husband just in case I end up pregnant again so I’m kind of lost on what I should do. does any other moms not take birth control and still have an active sex life?

Implant is working ok for me

I am 5 weeks and my husband and I discussed options and he begged me not to be on birth controll because it really messed me up before I was pregnant. And I didn't really want to be on it to begin with so we are going to use condoms and be super careful but still active. Pretty much living on condoms and a prayer until we're ready for the next one. Edit** When I get cleared we will be active and I am not ready to have a second kid and also kinda nervous so there's that lol 😅

I had the copper IUD for 7 years before getting pregnant and loved it. I'm planning to get another one soon. So great because it's hormone free and super effective and doesn't mess up your cycle, so you can track it like normal.

We use condom and I didn't get pregnant until we actively wanted a second baby. I will use condom again

I’m getting the coper iud because it’s non hormonal. I do not want to think about a second till my son is at least 5. My doctor is also willing to give me medication to numb and help with the pain… but i do have a strong pain tolerance so I should be fine 😂 i did know i was in labor at 6 cm till my ob appointment and didn’t feel pain till i got to 9-10 cm dilated and was getting ready to push 😂

We’re going with condoms. Personally, I felt so great after going off of birth control that I don’t want to do it again!
