[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get pregnant very easily, easy pregnancies . Pregnant first time trying at 32, 35 and 38

And still!!!! I never got pregnant with a prior boyfriend or had an unwanted pregnancy:

I learned about prevention in middle school sex Ed. I was on the Pill and took it religiously (pre-Mirena,etc).

It’s weird to read so many woman getting pregnant while dating or hooking up with randos.  If you are too dumb to use birth control, the child isn’t going to care well …[/quote]

This is so judgmental. There by the grace of God, you know? It also helps that you were able to take the pill. I can’t take hormonal bc because of stroke risk, so condoms are my best option, and the guy has to participate in using them correctly.

People get pregnant accidentally not because everyone except you is so dumb, but because at a population level, even a small chance of bc failure means a lot of accidental pregnancies. [/quote]

If you don't want to get pregnant it is possible not to get pregnant!  There are other female birth controls that don't have hormones in them- diaphragm, gel, condoms, non hormonal IUD, check your cycle.  If you each use a method pregnancy is very low. I can't use BC either and never had an IUD, guess what?  I never got accidentally pregnant and easily got pregnant when I wanted with my spouse. I was religious about checking my cycle and extra careful before we were ready to get pregnant.  I went to Catholic school and learned a lot of this there from the school nurse... in Catholic school, what is going on today with sex ed?

My mom got 'accidentally' pregnant in the 80s.  She ended up marrying my dad.  He was an alcoholic and died before I was born due to his own stupidity and she died when I was still young from cancer.

I am happy to be around but I say all the time, I was lucky because if my dad were still alive I think my life would have turned out a lot different.  Yes, it is sad to say that about your bio dad, but by all accounts he had a lot of demons.  I am successful, have a graduate degree from a top university, have a beautiful family and wonderful life. I don't think that is where I would have been if my mom died and my bio dad were still alive.  Although, I know my mom's family would have taken him to court to get me because of all his issues.

Think about what works best if you have a baby.  Think of the child first, not your needs and wants, but the child's needs because that is what matters.  If you aren't sure go talk to a therapist, but do it quick.

Also, pregnancy shouldn't be your only worry, but STIs.  Get tested. Syphilis is on the rise as are other STIs.  Wear a condom and get tested, people. [/quote]
