Recommend a mode of contraception

I can't settle on the right contraception for me given my circumstances.

10 months since baby born, age 38, likely to want to try for another in a year or so, but not yet.

Previously used Natural Cycles for 3 years to successfully prevent and then plan a pregnancy. Can't rely on that now as periods are sporadic/no regular cycle (baby day weaning, but night BFing).

This leaves me with:
Condoms - I don't like them
IUD - had before, loved it, but seems long term for my circumstances
Pill, implant, injections etc - I wanted to avoid a hormonal solution ideally
Good old fashioned pulling out - think of the laundry!

Anyone been in a similar situation? What would you opt for?
