My wife recently gave birth to a baby girl a few months ago, and we're thinking about spacing out our next child. Weve heard about the copper T when it comes to birth control, but were not exactly sure when we should get it inserted. Could you provide some guidance on this?

You can consider getting the Copper T inserted around 6-8 weeks postpartum, once your body has had some time to recover and after your first postpartum checkup. Its important to consult your doctor to ensure its the right choice for you and to discuss timing based on your health and preferences.

Question

What food can kill a baby when pregnant?

I'm really worried because I missed my period and took an unwanted kit, but there was no bleeding. So, I went to a doctor who gave me some abortion pills, but still nothing happened. She checked with a home pregnancy kit, which came out negative, and mentioned that bleeding should occur within 15-20 days. It's been a month now, and still no bleeding. What could be going on?
