contraception after babies

HI, I've 3 children 12, 10 and 12 weeks and am currently taking a mini pill. Problem is I've bled pretty much on and off since delivery. It's so unpredictable, not heavy enough for a tampon but enough to be messy! Starts and stops at random and is affecting my sex life. Spoke to the doc and she seems to think it's just my womb clearing out but i've not had this before. Don't want the coil, implant or injection 'cos I'm thinking about one more baby and I'm 37 so can't take a long term method. Can't use patches or other pill cos the oestrogen gives me headaches! Anybody out there using Persona or another method?
