Just wondering; anyone of you planning on more kidos? Will you wait long? What type of birthcontrol will you use in the meantime?

Good question.
I almost feel like I should have got my tubes re-tied.
This is my 4th c-section, and you need a good year afteer a pregnancy before getting preggo again to allow ther uterus to fully heal from the incision etc.
That means i cant consider trying til im at least 36... i consider myself lucky having 4 healty kids and dont know if i want to push it.
Also, my uterus isnt shrinking this time, and im still spotting/bleeding off and on. Its been 9 weeks! Dr is worried that if my uterus isnt shrinking that there could be hemorhage troubles once returns... this could lead to a hysterectomy...
also, next pregnancy i could find myself on injectible insulin due to the diabetes...
AND, Dante has a sacral dimple, hard to explain... but we are going for an u/s on the 25th to make sure its not an open sinus... this can be related to spinabifida, which freaks me out. I was takingalmost 2mg/day of folic acid before and during pregnancy... scares me to think how easy it is to have a baby with troubles.
I was a worry wart all during this pregnancy and i couldnt imagine going thru it again...
that and the lack of sleep... ugh!
I will start the minipill soon, and when Dante is one, if we still dont want another, then ill get my tubes tied.

I go to see my ob in a week, but we plan to just use condoms. I intend to start ttc as soon as the ob will let me. I dont want to wait to long because of my age.

Mmmmm good question, I will use the low dose bcp for the first year due to bfing and then go on the reg. bcp. And dh knows there's a chance of pg and seems to be okay with it. I got pg while bfing Rj when he was 11mo. old because I Od before my first PP AF. It was a nice surprise because we lost two babies while ttcing for Rj and the same thing happen while ttcing for Bella. So I think four children is a good number.

Take care,

DeAnne

Pablo and I had joked a bit about how we have so much baby stuff it would be a waste NOT to have another one...
Some days i think about it, other days i want to slap myself for thinking about it (those days when i cant REMEMBER when i last slept)
But Dante did pretty good last night, slept from 9-1, then again from 2-4:30, then again from 4:30-7, so i feel a bit more chipper today, even tho im still not getting much sleep at a time, lol
