We are a combo of abstinence and NFP. AKA praying. LOTS.

Pull and pray for two years or so. At that point, if we are still in the one and done camp, DH will have a vasectomy.

As of last month and moving forward, nothing! We're hoping for baby 2 this year. Before we used condoms.

None currently. I doubt we will ever use birth control again.

I have a Mirena. I wanted as little chance of a surprise baby as possible, and I didn't want to have to worry about timing or taking a pill or a broken condom or anything.
After we either make a second LO or decide for sure not to, D will get snipped.

None, I'm pregnant.
Before TTC I was on BCP but I won't be doing that again. We'll probably do a combination of condoms and NFP while we're still in the "building a family" phase until we need something more permanent.

BF and praying, lol. I started back on the minipill and my supply tanked sooo. I'm over the pill so we've got to find a better solution.

condoms, I tried to get a Mirena but my uturus was not having it, it snapped into a C shape and my doc couldn't get it placed.

Mirena.
We have 3 and we are done. I hate periods so the Mirena is wonderful for us.

Condoms, and charting when my cycle comes back properly.

@Mrs. Blue: why?
Mirena.......I love the no periods but wondering if it is causing my lack of sex drive and weight issues.

NFP and using condoms around ovulation. But we are also very much in the camp that a pregnancy would be a happy surprise. I would never use NFP if a pregnancy was very unwanted. Hubs will get snipped when we're done with kiddos.

@Smurfette: There's a lot of cases filed about Mirena right now because there have been allegations of it "migrating" out of place or even perforating the uterus and being located in other areas and women having to have it surgically removed or getting pregnant because it hasn't stayed in place...neither of which are options I'm comfortable with risking, even though I realize that there are many, many Mirena users who have had zero problems. Add to the fact that I have zero drive and have been pretty moody (though not as bad as I was on BCPs), that was enough for me to decide to have it removed. I called to schedule my appt to have it removed and the receptionist clarified that I didn't want to have another one put back in because "that's not something we're offering anymore." She didn't say why they're not offering Mirena to their patients anymore, but I would guess they've decided to wait until the litigation progresses and they see what will happen. We just had a couple of cases in our district that were transferred to mult-district litigation over it.

Nothing. With my IF trouble, I doubt I will ever go back to BC.

@Mrs. Blue: Wow! I didn't know all of that. I am really moody too. I was going to talk to DH about it this weekend. I really don't want my period again, not want to use condoms but I think that I am leaning towards it.
blogger / pomelo / 5361 posts
@Smurfette: I think I'm just really sensitive to birth control because I just don't seem to do well on any of them and was thinking of having my Mirena removed anyway, even though I love not having to remember to take/use anything and not having periods. When I learned about the litigation, that was just the final straw that pushed me to make an appt. I can't wait for menopause someday!

Currently? Nothing, but I just went to my 6 week check up yesterday and talked about getting the mini pill. After thinking it over and with LO having MSPI, I can't chance losing my supply, so I think we will do condoms/Pull n pray/breastfeeding.
