So, anyone actually get pregnant while using the "pull-out" method?

That "surprise" was probably more of an "oops" on DH's part that he didn't fess up to. I've been pulling out for over a decade. And I haven't been getting away with it because I'm sterile - DC#2 was planned and happened immediately.

Now the rhythm method is a completely different story...

The first time, was with my soon to be ex husband. We were separated, but hung out for a night to talk about things, got drunk, and ended up starting to have sex. As soon as he, um, put it in, he made 2 thrusts, and we decided that this was a horrible idea and he pulled out and we stopped. He did not finish, and we were only having sex for like under a minute. We were both absolutely floored when I later found out I was pregnant. And, no, it couldn't have possibly been anyone else's because that under 1 minute of sex was the only sex I had for a long time. I ended up getting an abortion.

The second time was with my current husband. We weren't trying to get pregnant and were using condoms, but were out of them, so we did the pull out method that one time, right before he went on a long business trip.


You seem really responsible.

We've been using it for 11 years. There have been 2-3x where DH wasn't sure he pulled out fast enough so I've taken the morning after pill.

Or maybe you've just been really lucky. If you are adamant about not having a baby, I wouldn't trust this method at all. No bc is 100% effective but some work way better than others.

Nope. We did it for years. The night we decided to 'leave it in and try' was the night I got pregnant. Same thing for the. 2nd kid.

DH must have incredible control.

Sounds like really crappy sex, though.
