POLL: PP Birth Control: What's your method gonna be?

[Isaac'sMa]

This is a spinoff of my other spinoff thread on PP sex. I'm just starting to think about what my options are for PP Birth control. Last time I had a diaphragm, but it didn't work out too great for us, so I'm thinking about the Paraguard IUD this time. We'd like another dc in maybe 4 years or so, so the IUD is the front-runner right now. Hmmmm...
I'm sure my poll is missing some options...sorry if your choice is not on there! What are your plans?

[Rikki Jean]

Nada.

[maclolo]

I put NFP, but really, we'll be using FAM... the only difference being that with FAM, you use a barrier method during the fertile days... NFP, you abstain.

[AimeeandBrian]

I have no idea. I wanted to use the LadyComp but it only works after you get your period back. I'm leaning toward a diaphragm...what are the cons to it?

I don't want to use any hormones and no condoms. I've never used anything but withdrawl before, so I am fairly ignorant about it all. DH says he is not going to pull out or use condoms as a married man and I don't blame him

[isosmom]

Sadly, this is it for us. So dh had a vasectomy in July. We just can't afford any more babies. This will be the first time I won't have to think about bc in my whole life! Pretty excited about that.

I am never having sex again. That is how I got here to begin with.

[Lizzie9984]

We won't be using a darn thing. Hubby and I are firm believers in the "Whatever happens happens for a reason" mentality

[mittendrin]

WEEHEE GOT SNIHIPPED, nananananaaaaa

NFP...loosely...mostly "whatever happens".

Wow, Lindsey, You are one brave woman!

I swear I will abstain until or unless DH gets snipped.. but I remember using the Sponge (of Seinfeld "sponge-worthy" fame!) will good results and liked it in grad school.. I think you can buy them again now.. they do have spermicide but no hormones.. maybe I'll try to track them down again

[marisa]

DH is supposed to get snipped ASAP. I have no interest in being pregnant again - hyperemesis, pubic pain, horrible back pain while taking care of now four kids? No thanks!!

I'm planning on adopting any kids in the future should I feel that the family isn't complete.

HAHAHA! I knew I missed something! And dh's uncle is the guy in that episode who is "spongeworthy"!

[CheapPearls]

I'm getting a tubal AND Dh has been snipped. Yeah, double safe here.

[boogiemonster]

Well, since "Scaring the sh*t out of your husband" isn't on the list, I picked condoms. Although, we mostly just used them during the more fertile periods. DH is planning on getting a v-snip in the future, but it'll be timing and rubbers until then. And the spooky wife method.

I was on the pill before getting pregnant with DD. Never again.

[JamesMama]

NFP with probably a diaphragm on fertile days. DH doesn't like condoms so we'll do that.

[tiffanymm]

I voted condoms but we will mix that will the Pull out Method
