Just wondering if this might be an option for me. Our family is complete (2 dcs) but we're not ready for anything final yet (I'm thinking I'll get sterilised once I hit 40 - am 34 now). After being on the pill for 10 years pre-dc, I'm done with hormonal contraception (I suffer from migraines which in retrospect were loads worse on it). I'm also breastfeeding and probably will for a couple of years. We don't dtd that often, and have fertility issues too, so copper coil feels like a hammer to crack a nut. Dp and I don't like the feel of condoms. So... diaphragm looks like it might be worth a try, but I've read up on how it's fitted and that puts me off a bit - the checking you're putting it in properly yourself bit, I hate the thought of rummaging about down there with an audience! Can anyone share experiences of having one fitted please?
