After the fact....

[hollyw79]

When we all get our BFP's and are on ... do you plan on using birth control after that??? What are your thoughts on that after having difficulty conceiving this time around???

I want to have 2 more children ( I already have 1 from a previous marriage) .. and I wondered WHEN we are successful getting preggos (I am hoping THIS MONTH! lol) .. will we use BC for any length of time after the fact to try and space out having the next child??? My issue is DH's SA didn't come back good.. so ~ I sort of feel like I wouldn't. I think it would be a challenge to have 2 lil beans so close together- but better close together than not at all. I know this may not apply if this is for your last planned pregnancy- but wondered what you all thought.

to my knowledge breast feeding is a natural BC, it inhibits fertility.

i'm not going to use BC after having a baby as i would want to breast feed and i worry that BC would affect the milk if you know what i mean.

but that is just me. everyone has different views.

I don't have to worry about that 'cos my tubes are screwed.

But I also read that BF acts as a natural fertility controller.

If all was good with me, I'd be inclined to not use BC, what will be will be. ...Also, it's fairly easy to just avoid BDing at your most fertile time.

I knew BF acted as a form of BC.. my DH said he might want to try and avoid getting pregnant for awhile if and when we do conceive. I don't really want to try and prevent it though... feels VERY weird trying to prevent it (when we will want another one after that most likely) and being in the situation that we are in.
