Hi All,
We had sexual intercourse after 3 months of my first child birth but unfortunately didn't use any precautions or contraceptive tablets. After a week normal periods happen but still we afraid whether it will leads to pregnancy or abortion :(.
How to avoid child for a period say for example 4 years?
Could you please suggest on this?

Why don't you go on the pill or use a condom? If due to your religion you can't then just before he ejaculates pull it out but this doesn't always work you still have a chance of getting pregnant.

There is a new iud that that lasts about 5 years and can be taken out sooner if you would like to have more children.

What does a doctor call two people who use the pull out method? Parents.
Please don't use the pull out method. That's how my second baby was conceived. Speak to your OBGYN about Mirena. It lasts up to five years and you can remove it at anytime if you decide to.

Actually this is sound advice if the OP is not able to use regular forms of contraception. While stating that they didn't use any precautions or contraceptive tablets is likely due to just choosing not to, if it had been for a religious reason alternatives would be natural family planning or the withdrawl method. Yes, it is not the most reliable method, but many couples rely on it and find success with it. The withdrawl method can be difficult for some, as it takes much awareness... lack of which is what causes the majority of unplanned pregnancies, along with resuming intercourse after ejaculation has occurred, and of course the odds of pregnancy will be greater with its use than with other forms of contraception. But the point bunintheoven made was that this could be an option IF other forms could not be considered due to religious reasons... not that this would be a optimum choice.
For the OP, if you had a period, you would not be pregnant. If you are open to various forms of contraception there are a number to choose from as have been suggested. Speak to your partner and your doctor about which ones might be the best options to use.

Well you could use anal sex, but I suggest you see a doctor to widen your options

An OBGYN is the doctor who delivered your baby.
Do you have access to birth control?
Can you use condoms or the birth control pill?

Depending on where you live, many births may be attended by an obstetrician... a doctor who takes care of women during pregnancy and birth. A gynecologist is a doctor who focuses on the health issues of women. An OBGYN does both.
In other places, a midwife would be the most common care provider during pregnancy and birth and an obstetrician is only seen if there is a greater medical need.
