@adidan1 We actually have discussed this! He’s not opposed, we just never really went through with it because pull out worked so well for so long lol so we kinda procrastinated on putting down the money for the procedure lol and as everyone has said, we’ll deal with the consequences lol we were prepared for it lol
Pregnant by Pull out method

@lijuea My boyfriend and I used the pull out method for the first 3.5 years of our relationship. He referred to himself as the Pull Out Samurai. Due to issues related to endometriosis, I ended up going on birth control about 6 months ago and I'm glad I did! Seeing another pull out aficionado end up pregnant reminds me of how much of a risk we were taking all those years. Best of luck to you guys!
@mumfordem Omg that is sooo funny! Glad to know I’m not the only one with a man who gave himself a goofy nickname in honor of his self control!

@lijuea Umm yea. Its not completely effective. Better forms of protection.would be a.condom or the pill or an IUD or even sterilization - whatever works best for you in the moment or wherever you are in life.
But going raw and pulling out? Hmmmmmm you should careful about it...
Hope it all worked out in the end

@lijuea I got you girl. Some people need to get of their high-horse. Hormonal birth control isn’t for everyone or the cramps that come from the copper iud either. Sometimes you wanna rawdog it with your husband of eight years. Who is anybody else to judge?
You do what works for you until it doesn’t. Its not like you were doing the pullout method with strangers in bars.

@aninymouse OK now a lot of this I never knew of. Thanks for sharing. Nobody told me that cramps with the copper IUD existed but when I think carefully about it it makes sense that a hard metallic thing sitting in your innards couple be painful at times.
And also ya, she wasnt raw dogging it with randos so that is a very big plus in a situation like this!

@aninymouse maybe he just wasnt that fertile, so odds were always in your favor? just lucky? who can say about these things. Someone mentioned that pullout is actually very successful, but their numbers make condoms look like they arent even helpful, so am doubtful.

@aninymouse hehehh, works, just not everytime, just depends on luck.. thats kinda like not working.
@uggalugg That's "typical use," which includes people who sometimes do not actually pull out or sometimes do not use the condom/sponge/etc. over the course of a year. Does not apply to OP. Here are the stats both numbers come from.
