I was on the mini pill and now im here! I'm not one of those idiots who forgets to take it either! Different women have different experiences though so give it a go if you want to. Be warned though that you have to take it pretty much at the same time every day or things start to go wrong! Good luck!

My experience with the pill a few years ago was dreadful. I felt so not myself and was as close to depressed as I have ever been. I would stay in the shower and not want to get out. I didnt want to get up in the morning and I didnt want to do housework or cook or anything. when I worked out that is what it was I threw them in the bin.

I'm on the mini pill now, it works great I have less cramps when I get my period and no pms, I did breastfed my boy till 3 months (not enough milk long story) till my milk dried he is now 4 months and I'm still on the mini pill, my doc didn't tell me to change I don't want to as it doesn't give me the side effects of the regular pill, if I do fall pregnant on it it wouldn't be a train smash as I do want another little one, I'll stay on it untill me and hubby are ready to conceve again.

I was on it while I was nursing and it was okay for me. My Dr did tell me that the effectiveness is less than a regular birth control method, so backup protection is key. After I finished nursing I had to switch right away because it didnt regulate my period and it wasn't as good as reg pills.

The mini pill is also known as a breast feeding pill right? Just want to make sure we are talking about the same thing. I loved the mini pill and the peace of mind it gave me. I was on it after both of my children. It worked just great! I nursed both of my children for a year and had not issue. The only thing my doctor really warned it that as soon as you are finished nursing you need to switch to a regular pill. I also did get a period when my children were about 9 months old. Yet, I had the protection I wanted.
