So I used to take the pill before we had our new born son (just born in May)...I was gonna take an IUD but the pain that I got and the bleeding I experienced was so bad I had it removed. I just started taking Yasmin (again) been on this before. But I am concerned for some things and need some opinions. Prior when I was taking Yasmin I was not overweight but w/ this last baby I am overweight & my BP is higher than normal. The side affects mention that if you are overweight or have high BP that you shouldn't take this.
I am also wondering, how common is weight gain in this pill?

I really don't want to gain anymore weight.
I don't plan on being on this BCP for a long time, only a year or so and then we are gonna try for #4 (my 3rd biologically) I want a girl, we have all boys between the 2 of us. After that I plan on getting my tubes tied. I wanted DH to get a Vasectomy, less recovery time and less invasive but he's immature

and think's he'll be less of a man if he is "shooting blanks"... What ever!

Meanwhile I will just push out kids naturally/vaginally and have a ton of pain and he can't get a stupid Vasectomy that can be done in the doc's office thats how NON invasive this procedure is.
