Awake at 3:30 am.

I'm really pissed about it, too. And its just a bonus on top of a night when Holly wanted a boob in her mouth 24/7. So, hey. Did I ever say something dumb like Holly was a different or better sleeper than Robin

Did you get the Mirena? I'm going to get one, too. I have only heard good things from users.

I hate nursing all night, too. It's so frustrating.

i did get the mirena. i have to say if it continues to be this completely easy, i will be an insane advocate for it. i can't quite believe i can have unprotected sex for 5 years and have it be cheaper than condoms (m ins covered all but $10!).

Oh my gosh! That is amazing!

I hope ours covers that much. Even if we paid out of pocket, we'd spend more on BC pills in a year.

Yeah, here's all the great things about it:

- it's breastfeeding compatible
- it doesn't have the negative side effects/risks of a systemic hormonal method
- the low dose of progesterone means lighter periods
- no condoms
- lasts up to 5 years
- instantly effective
- instantly reversible and you only have to wait 1 cycle to TTC once it's removed
- quick insertion and removal
- don't have to remember anything

RIGHT??? How is that not the perfect birth control?

That was our math too, even though we paid a good chunk of it, it was still cheaper than BC pills, and way WAY cheaper than a second baby!
