Preventing pregnancy until its time to try.........?????

[andersondyson]

Hi Girls,

I need some advice!!

I am currently WTT due to having a holiday booked with my whole family for next July!

The thing is, I came off the implant in July and feel that it really messed up my cycles......at the minute I am not on any BC as we have been TTC the last 2 months but now need to start preventing conception again until about Jan/Feb time....

I really do not want to go on the pill or use anything that interferes with my hormones as I want to get pg as quick as possible when we do try.....

Any ideas/ advice?????????

Obviously the best thing is condoms.....but my OH cant stand the idea of going back in time 10 years lol!!!

Thanks in advance xxxx

Honesty, OH and I just use the pullout method! Has worked for us just fine.

I had thought about that, also is there a spemicide you can buy that kills the sperm off....or have a dreamt that????

diaphram or try looking at a persona fertility monitor combined with spermicide/withdrawal?

We want to try next September so had the Mirena coil fitted, you are fertile 5 days before you have it taken out!!!
It lasts 5 years but Dr knows I only want it in til August.

Good luck xx

I advocate spermicidal lubricants. The withdrawal method isn't 100% as pre-cum definitely houses some swimmers. I know many a friend who had an unexpected surprise and declared "but he pulled out!" so I told OH to stop that immediately.

OH HATES condoms with a passion no matter how thin they are. He just gets entirely way too frustrated and winds up tearing them off anyway... Kind of amusing... Kind of terrifying... Then again it's only terrifying afterwards LOL. So it's been spermicidal lubricants.

You could go one step further and get a diaphragm. That should do the trick
