Contraceptive advice

I'm wondering if I could get some advice. I'm currently 3 months post partum with my last child and both physically and mentally it has floored me to the point I don't want any more children. DH and I have discussed contraception (I brought up the topic) and he's up for a vasectomy as I've always been on the pill which I don't want to go back to because I think it affected me more than I realise (mood swings and headaches).

However, due to finding this season so tough I also want to take some form of protection... Thinking about non hormone options like the coil. Does anyone have any experience or advice here?

Please be kind I'm so fragile at the moment and trying so hard to remain positive (I have a history of PPD which I'm anxious about going through again).

I had no problem with the mirena coil. No particular pain with insertion or removal.
