Anyone doing natural family planning?

Just wondering if anyone could share their experience or offer advice.

I've been on the pill for 10 years, three of those on the mini pill. Can never go on combined contraception again due to severe migraine. I've had no periods for the three years on the POP and it's left me with an extra half a stone I can't get rid of, spots and a crap sex drive. I've done lots of reading on NFP and thinking of discussing it with DH, but wondered if anyone here has done it and how well it worked?

Would be very grateful for any stories, good or bad! Smile

Yes. I have a 9 month old and am now 21 weeks pregnant!

To be fair, my periods hadnt really come back as was breast feeding but had thought that fertility might be a but suppressed

I think we'll have 3 DC so once had the third, then I'll probably use persona as I don't like the pill etc. however, that's on the basis that having a fourth DC wouldn't be a disaster

Thanks Gobbolino and congratulations! Smile

We're not TTC yet but as you say, it wouldn't be a total disaster. Would plan on using condoms until cycles have settled down and during fertile time, or making sure swimmers go, er, elsewhere.
