Birth control- yay!

I had another doctors appointment yesterday and everything looks great! Babies are healthy and mama is healthy.
People keep saying "And no bed rest?" at 34 weeks so I asked my OB and she said, "Nope, you don't need it and probably won't."

Yay!

Then she asked me, "So do you have any thoughts about birth control?"

Birth control!! Yes! I think about it every day about how being pregnant makes me never ever want to do this again! I think about how normal people take birth control and that I might be part of that group some day again. Just the fact that she mentioned it shows that there is an end to this, there is life on the other side (I just can't see it right now, just like I can't see my feet).

I got really excited when she mentioned it and that I have all these possibilities. Same possibilities as before but before I got pregnant, I couldn't imagine someone putting an IUD in my uterus because my body was so sacred so I only considered the pill. Now with my body being totally taken over by two bodies inside me, being prodded and probed every doctors visit, I imagine that an IUD won't be a big deal at all. And I get protection for ten years!. By that time I'll be almost menopausal and won't have to worry about birth control at all. Yay! (gotta look at the positives....)
