@newmomma13 What do you mean? Its especially for women who have had at least one baby. I don't think you can get it if you haven't had a baby. Let me look. Brb.
@Fate I will. I am pretty sure I didn't missunderstand her option and that she won't do because I had the paragaurd and loved it. I worked great for 5 years until I got pregnant, I asked my doc cause I didn't know if Mirena would be a better choice after baby. I really really don't want to take the mini pill, would love to get the iud again, if I am not going to get pregnant.
@Heather3rdgirl I am just wondering since both Paragard and Mirena are IUDs, why she advises not to get Mirena if you've had a baby, but Paragard is fine? Both have the potential to perforate the uterine wall, the risk is increased if inserted too soon after birth.
I got the mirena about 10 weeks after giving birth. Had no bleeding till 3 weeks after it was put in then bled for 2-3 weeks. Now havent bled for almost 3 months... I love it...
@Fate Yeah I had the paragaurd put in after the birth of my middle daughter. She said something about she has seen more problems with Mirena after birth so I really don't know, but will be asking again for sure.
