BF / BC question

[lmp1505768]

So long story short, I'm on the mini pill and ebf . DF decided he wants o use condoms "as an extra precaution".

I told him that I was going to stop the pill the. Because it makes me really catty and grumpy.

I know bf isn't a reliable method, but a method non the less.

But now my LO has been STTN for two nights.

I meet all other requirements.

So my question is: how long can he STTN without it affecting my coverage? To clarify, if this is some miracle phase that lasts five days and then he stops, will the method be void?

According to Wikipedia the baby must be fed every 6 hrs at night to get 98-99.5% effectiveness

If you're using condoms as well I don't see any issue, but if not then there's a slightly bigger risk.

I personally wouldn't use it as a method of birth control because its not reliable. There's a lot of mommas on here that have gotten pregnant using bfing as a method of protection.

I wouldn't use it more so because your lo is sttn.

If you're using condoms then it wouldn't make much difference anyway?

Maybe try the coil or implant if the pill doesn't agree with you? Xx

I second the condom theory lol
DF wants a "in case it breaks" back up. He drives me crazy sometimes.

Though in his defense, we conceived our DD while I was on the pill.
