Not Pregnant

Today I went to my post-partum visit. They did a pregnancy test, which made me laugh but I see why. I also got an IUD installed.

This time I decided to go with the Mirena. The Paragard was okay, though the bleeding was insane. I decide to use that one before because it didn't have hormones and I didn't need any more migraines than I was already getting. Since this one will only be in for a year or so, I decided to take the risk. The up side of the Mirena is that I might not get a period at all, which would be nice. Maybe it will help with the migraines.

Actually, it is likely I won't get a cycle for awhile anyways because I am nursing. So between nursing and the IUD, I might be good until next year.

The downside? It takes a couple months when you take it out to get your cycle and be fertile again.

Hey, my OB told me that I am not *that* old, which was nice to hear since I turn 37 on Monday. Baby #2 doesn't have a chance of coming until I am at least 38.
