"i love this birth control. with all 4 of my children, i start taking this pill daily 6 weeks post partum. i&#039;ve nursed all my children for over a year. with my first 3, i never had a period until my child weaned around 13 months old.  my 4th is 10 month old and i just started a period. not sure why but not worried about it.  this time we also use condoms for extra protection but we didn&#039;t with the other 3 and we never had any surprise pregnancies. effective and i&#039;ve never had any noticeable side effects other than being less moody and more even keel. normally no cramping, spotting, nothing.  great method for us. i&#039;ll probably continue using it after my dd weans and use condoms as well."
