What do you love about it? What do you not like? If you are BF'ing did it impact it in any way?
I heard from a few members on another thread but figured there were others out there!

I replied to the other thread but here goes.
I have had a fantastic experience with it. Insertion was fast and pretty painless, just a bit of cramping as it was being placed. I had none of the spotting, weight gain, etc. I had it in at 6 weeks pp and still have not had a period 14 months later. I love mine. We're in it for the long haul. I would recommend it.

I have no issues at all with mine. I have only had it 5 or 6 weeks but I haven't noticed it affecting my supply. I love not worrying about it and having to remember to take a pill.

I love mine. Insertion was hell for me, but it is worth it. It hasn't affected my supply that I can tell either.

I have had it twice. After DS, I had it for 4 1/2 years until we were ready for another one.
After DD< I had it put in at my 6 wk pp and it fell out at some point and now we are pregnant with another So I would recommend it IF you are able to check your strings!! I have a curved cervix so was never able to check my strings.

@Kiki: yikes! I haven't been able to feel my strings. I have my 6 week post-insertion check up on Thursday and I'll be interested to hear if the doc thinks I should be able to feel them.
@grizz: I obviously haven't had mine long, but the insertion was quick and painless for me. I was a little worried about it but I took some advil an hour ahead of time and it was a piece of cake. I know it's supposed to be easier if you've had a vaginal delivery.
