Birth control

What is everyone doing for birth control while breastfeeding? Was given Jencycla birth control pills, but haven’t started them yet because I’m nervous. Thoughts?? Reviews??

I’m getting the Skyla iud

Following

I’m going to take a progesterone-only birth control pill. I haven’t started it yet either so can’t give any reviews. But it’s what my midwife recommended for BC during breastfeeding since I didn’t want to do an IUD or anything that required a more invasive process.
I started my period again at 4w PP so I really need to start taking it 😅😅

I started on a progesterone only birth control.. but it has completely killed my milk supply (even though i was told it wouldnt)... so dont really recommend doing that if u still want to breastfeed. Ive had to spend a lot of money on other breastmilk cuz i only produce about one bottles worth per day now.

ugh I’m so sorry 😭 that’s honestly why I haven’t started mine yet. I’ve had no other complications or reasons to not trust my midwives recommendations, but I know everyone responds to things differently and I’m really nervous to introduce anything new to my body. Ugh this makes me so nervous.

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

Work + baby?

Hi everyone I’m a struggling mom needing to go back to work but trying to avoid sending my baby to daycare I’m desperately trying to find work I can do with my baby as I won’t have any one I trust to babysit. If anyone knows anything please reach out. I just want my baby to be safe but living in this economy with one income is just impossible. Please fellow moms im begging for anything!

Looking for friends

Hey laddies. I’m 27 year olds I’m a mom of 2 girls. I’m currently 3 months pregnant. I want to make some new friends I get bored I realize I don’t have any more friends. I stay in Tennessee. Also I’m a Virgo. Let’s be friends 🥰

Feeling stupid

I got drunk last night and had unprotected sex he didn’t cum in me but I’m ovulating
And having pain and I’m freaking out

Can I take morning after pill when already ovulating/ ovulated
And is there any safe for breastfeeding

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣

Running mums!

Any other runners on here? Would love to connect ☺️
