Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If you have had a normal vaginal delivery with no postpartum complications, you can ask your consultant for the contraception now as you go for your postpartum visit. This should be done after excluding any pregnancy and infections. Better forms of IUD are also available for prolonged period of contraception and with lesser complications, for example, the Mirena. You can discuss with your consultant. Follow up is essential with any form of IUD. Hope your query has been answered. Take care.
