We had DD's 8 week check yesterday, and the Dr asked how I was going on the mini pill. I said it's all fine, I'm really happy with it. He then mentioned that if AF returns it may not be as effective, and so we should consider alternative methods of contraception.

Is the mini pill supposed to stop AF coming? And if it doesn't and AF may come back at any time and then I'll need to switch contraception anyway, what's the point of the mini pill? What's is even doing?

I really should have asked all these questions at the Dr, I just thought when it was combined with breastfeeding it was an effective contraception. Now I'm all confused!
