I have an appt. set for the 14th to talk about it with the doctor and probably have it removed. I am so anxious now to get it out and get back to a normal lifestyle without all the crazy hormones and mood swings~ that being said-what else does everyone use, and what do you think is the best one?

I just got back from the doctor and I had my IUD removed today because of all the horrible side effects that were happening. I am now on the pill again for BC and we will see what happens. She started me on Yaz and we will see if that causes my migraines to get worse or not-then last night out of the blue my husband says to me "Maybe we should just go ahead and have a 2nd baby!" Is he crazy???? We are still getting used to the first one-besides he is an only child and only really wanted one in the first place-now he wants 2? I think he is going through a tiny baby withdrawl and wants her to be itty bitty again. Someday we will have another one but not now!!!

All you have to do is send his butt to my house and I could cure him for a few years. No lie. My children have me so aggrevated right now. I have NEVER been this aggrevated with them. If gas were cheaper I might run away.
Congrats on the IUD taken out thingy.

What time is dinner and I will send him your way? Just kidding, I really want another one, I always thought that he didn't so I had become ok with the idea of only 1 child, then he throws this at me-like I said I think he is just needing a tiny baby fix-but he will be over to your house shortly for a reality check.

You think that and then God will give you twins woman. Be careful what you wish for! Everytime I think I want another one, mine do this! ACK.
Two xanax and a drink might do the trick tonight. Oh great, now my dogs are barking........sure why not?

Twins are a scary thing to think about! I give you all the kudos in the world for making it through each day and not killing something or someone-there are days I can hardly handle 1, let alone twins. I think another baby for us will be in the very distant future-a looooooong time from now!!!!!! If you need some extra hugs to make it through the day here ya go~

Hello - I am new to these forums but just wanted to say that I have had my IUD for a year and have had no issues. I don't have Mirena (it has low doses of hormones). I have copper which has no hormones. This is my only choice (besides condoms) because of medical reasons. Copper is safe and has been for a while. I know a few people that use it and have not had issues. My rec is to talk to your doctor and use what you feel the most comfortable with and works with you and your lifestyle.

Good luck!

I had the IUD for two years. I got it once my little girl was born during the post partum depression stage. I honestly can say i never had any bad experiences with it other than weight gain. My periods completely stopped, and i was rarely ever tired. I put on 25-30 lbs in two years. That was when i decided i no longer could have something that was controlling my body!! So i called the ob and they wanted 250 to take it out cuz i dont have insurance. So i got the tweezers last week and pulled it out myself. It seemed completely harmless and once you can actually grasp it, it was way easy... It prob isnt the best way to have that done but it was for me!! Since taking it out last week i have lost 8 lbs. Much happier too!!
