Cycling is an absolute no go here - some cycles I'm 13 days, some I'm 77 ... absolutely no rhyme or reason to it, that we can see. The only time I've *ever* been regular was then I was on the pill.

IUDs are a bit of a mental issue for me, what with my repair work etc ... I don't think I could get my head around it. Ditto for the ring, if there's a risk it might fall out.

Still undecided re TTC#3 so I think implanon is a no.

Maybe a diaphragm. I didn't realise people still used them!

Condoms sting - it's probably the latex or the spermicide on them, so maybe we need to try some different ones too.

Injection might be a solution, but if there's a risk it will screw up my cycles, then I'm not keen ... I like knowing when my period will be, when on the pill, and having the option to skip it if needed, or stopping it at will if we want to start TTC.

The timer in the purse is a good idea. While I don't always have my bag with me, and sometimes am out with clients or barristers or whatever in the evenings (if we're preparing for trial or whatever) most times if I'm still working at night I'm just in my office, and so would hear the alarm and have the privacy to contracept in peace ...

Maybe I just need to put my big girl pants on and go to the Dr and talk contraception and do it.
