Kathryn - I just love, love, love, your picture. What an adorable baby boy you have! I am not only considering a tubal because my husband hates anything to do with doctors, but more for the fact that we have already met my deductible for the year and it would be free - whereas we would have to pay his $2000 deductible for a VS. My friend recently had one and it is not major surgery anymore - in, out, she was home that afternoon and up and about the next day.
We have 5 kids, and I have been thinking seriously about permanent BC. (Well, I should say, we have.) I mentioned it to my mom once, and she made the comment that many people never get over wanting another baby. (you know, they are cute and all  ) However, she said that people who have had the surgery get over the baby bug faster because they know it's out of the question; instead of like her one friend that ended up pregnant at 42 because, in her words - "she saw a cute baby in a moment of weakness."

It can't hurt!
As for our situation, I'm thinking we are gonna go with the depo shot. Since breastfeeding is not going as smoothly as we would have liked, I'm nervous about the mini-pill.

How soon are you thinking of having this, Sharon?
I understand that if you're breastfeeding, you need to wait 6 weeks before having the injection.
And that for anyone having the jab, it's recommended to use condoms (or not have sex) for the first 14 days afterwards, as it can take a while to become active.

We actually waited longer for intercourse. It wasn't comfortable at all.

When you've had a C-section, as Sharon has, it's definitely wise to wait at least 6 weeks, and even then you need to be careful.

LOL...
I just wish the whole contraceptive decision was an easier one. Perhaps we should invent an on and off switch for our fertility????

Oh that would be so nice. We could resort to old fashioned methods. Onions in our hoo-hahs. Of course maybe that's not a contraceptive. Maybe it's a turn off.

Manda is right. I bought some online. Nice company. They had a variety pack. I think it was 100 in that pack. Um, we're set for a while. I can't help it, I love a great deal! Plus it's a different one everytime.

I work at a school and took someone to the health center (jr college) and I was laughing at all the condoms that they were giving away. There was like 10 different brands. I was tempted to take some.

I recommend the SKYN brand - you can get them at Walmart. That was our method before TTC. I had issues with irritation down there and had to switch to non-latex. These were very nice.

Yes, SKYN are very nice, there are, however, ones that are thinner than that. We had to buy ours online.

Kimono brand is our favorite, gotta order them online, though.

Proud Army Sister 
In fact I have never heard of that.
