[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you realize that even today 50% of births are unplanned. Sometimes it is a surprise and you give birth. It happened to me. I was not specifically "planning" it.

I never "tried" for either of my two kids. Both were unplanned. I had sex one time in three years for the second and got pregnant. I did not think I was ovuating. I was married. The first I was off the pill for 48 hours only...ex decided to go ahead even though I did not want to get pregnant.

It happens.

Never had sex without that ex-spouse again. Abstinence is the only 100% way to avoid an accident.

The way you feel about a possible second kid is how I feel about marriage--why would anyone ever do that again? But I understand 1) people are different and 2) things can happen that are not necessarily planned (like a pregnancy)[/quote]

This is a you problem. I’ve always had IUDs. Husbands can get vasectomies. There’s really, truly no reason in this day and age to have an accidental pregnancy as an adult. (I’m pro abortion, before you even go there).[/quote]

Women need to understand how their hormones work too. This story has been repeated by so many of my friends. She may not have thought she was ovulating, but she should have known she was based on that presumably fluke desire that flared up once in three years and resulted in sex. That’s no fluke, that’s an evolutionary response to your estrogen and LH surge to encourage procreation.

Dead bedroom and suddenly you feel the urge? Wrap it up, friend, that’s your hormones increasing libido right when you are most fertile.[/quote]
