birth control
"I have had the paragard in for 3 weeks now. I got it inserted 8 weeks after my 4th baby & 1st c section. Ive had the mirena and didnt like the mood swings, hormones & crazy periods. Paragard caught my attention when i heard it was a non-hormonal BC. I am breastfeeding but i still had a period for 7 days after the insertion. Since i got it put in ive had mild cramps occasionally and feel slightly bloated but im assuming my uterus is still adjusting. So far i love it! I havent had sex with it in yet so i cant comment on that. The insertion was uncomfortable but not painful. I had 3/4 of my kids natural and no epidural so my pain tolerance is very high. Id still say its not painful though. I say "yaaaay""
