6 Weeks Postpartum! Posted: 04-30-07 16:50pm
i just got back a little bit ago from my 6
week postpartum doctor's appointment! it
went really well. she said everythings
looks great & i have healed perfectly.
i got my prescription for my birth
control.. although i can't start it until
i get my period again. i'm gonna be taking
.ortho .tri-.cyclen .lo... is anybody on
that?
gabe is 6 weeks old as of yesterday! his 2
month check up is on .may 15th.. he's
getting so big & he's so beautiful. He
smiles & coo's & ahh's sooo much.
he woke me up this morning by just coo-ing
& making laughing noises. i got up to
get him & he was just looking around
at all his toys smiling. adorable.
but anyway.
it is freakin hot outside today! it's 90
degrees here! it's pretty nice, though.
it's not humid.. so that's good. i may
take .gabe on a walk in a little health
forum & i had some more amazing sex
last night..
.good times, man. good times. it feels
even better now than it ever did before.

why do you have to wait for your period
before you can start your pill? just
wondering. i started mine at 2 weeks pp
and it put my body right on track.
i think (for me) sex is waaaay better
post-pregnancy. i mean, it was great
before but now it's always amazing.
i want to see more pics of that beautiful
boy! i can't believe he's 6 weeks. i can't
wait for a report after his appointment so
we can see how much he's grown.
i'm glad things are going well for you!

i dunno, .b! i asked her why i couldn't
start taking it now, & she said it's
just easier to start it the first day i
start my period again. *shrugs*
.i think my sister has her camera in her
purse & she's at work- but hopefully
later tonight i can get some cute pictures
& videos of him being silly.

You can start birth control at any time
during your cycle as long as there is no
chance of pregnancy. If you start it the
first day of you period they are effective
immediately, while if you start them at
any other time it takes a week to be
effective. Maybe that is why?

i was always told to start the pill the
sunday after my period. when you open the
box of birth control the first day it
starts with is sunday. i did read the
pamphlet though, and it says you can start
it anyday, it refers to it as "any day
starter". but then you might get confused
by the days as you will be taking them on
different days then what the pill box
says.

The pack should include a set of stickers
that start with everyday of the week that
you can stick on top of the days that are
referenced on the pack. That's what I
always did. Otherwise I would get to
confused!

yeah, youre right i just checked...i never
payed attention to that lol...
not to scare anyone but my
3rd child was conceived on ortho
tricyclene lo.
lol, yeah, caca happens! thats why if you
choose to have sex you gotta accept the
consequences. i wonder if it was that
particular brand of pill that didnt work
for you, or if it would have happened on
any pill?
