You can take what they call the mini pill. I am on that now. The one thing is you need to take it at the same time everyday. If you go longer than two hours after, you need a back up method for the next 48 hours. Or something like that. I think it's probably better not to take anything hormonal but my hubby will not wear condoms. I refuse to get pregnant again, at least not yet!

I'm on orthotricyclen. It's not generally reccommended because it can affect your supply, but it works for me.

Just be aware that the hormones in the pills can affect the amount of b___stmilk you put out. You can take one with a low dose of hormones. The best way is condoms, since there's no hormones with those, but they aren't always feasable... I know two people allergic to latex and can't use condoms, and besides... they aren't all that comfortable!
