Mirena..Have any of you used it and if so,what did you think of it?? I think I have changed my mind about getting my tubes tied(not b/c I might want more kids,but b/c I don't want to have to drive an hr away to the hospital to have it done)..Also,I know the phamplet says that you might have no period or light bleeding is all..And it is effective immediately..what do y'all think? I hope someone can help me...Also,I am breastfeeding and I thought when you breastfeed,you don't get AF??Well,I think I got AF today and I just quit PP bleeding like a week and a half ago..Is that normal?? ![]() |

I don't know anything about BC so no help there, but apparently BF'ing doesn't keep AF away for some women. I got AF back when Andrew was 8 weeks old, 2 weeks after PP bleeding stopped, and again when Alison was 6 weeks old, only 1 week after PP bleeding stopped. ![]() |

Yeah it sucks ![]() My af's are longer after having kids - they used to last 3 or 4 days total... like with the last two days being really light spotting. Now they last about 5 days - for awhile after having Alison they were more like 6-7 days. ![]() |

Well,the nurse at my Dr office called me back and she doesn't seem to think it is AF..She seems to think it is just PP bleeding still as she said it can last for 6-8 weeks and maybe I just over did it the last few days(Shhh,don't tell anyone we already DTD 2x WITH protection of course.. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
