No contraceptive? Withdrawal method?

[Kisha86]

I’ve been with my partner for a year now. And I told him that I am not on birth control and he said it’s ok. So we are using the withdrawal method is that reliable specifically on ovulation day?

Tbf I've used it with long term partners and only ever got pregnant when we actually decided to try, and both times it took exactly 1 month of trying.

Used perfectly it isn't that bad a method. Used as most people use it, it's a terrible method.

There's a difference!

'Sperm is often released before ejaculation'

Withdrawal does work fine but only if the man can pull out in time and not everyone does that’s the problem. I am very fertile but used this method with a partner for a year and did not get pregnant but he was very good at getting out on time.

Ovulation day?

I thought ovulation could happen over two days.

Also some men have sperm in preejaculate, some don't. And you wouldn't know unless you had their semen examined microscopically.

You may think you're getting away with it because you're not getting pregnant but your chances of getting pregnant any cycle if you're at prime fertility (in 20s) is 25%, and drops to about half of that in your mid 30s ... So it's a matter of risk per cycle times the number of cycles, in other words your odds are getting higher and higher the more times you do it.

It does depend on his preejaculate, how are you.gling to be sure of that though.

And he could fail to withdraw properly as well.

A year is not a long relationship.

It's not long enough to know someone well enough to risk pregnancy with them. You're barely out of the honeymoon period.

Copper coil if you don’t want hormones

Do you want a baby?

Do you know how babies are made?

Haha I'm currently pregnant with our withdrawal baby

In fairness we only used it when we were ready to become parents but not desperate to try particularly

I agree. I used it with an ex partner but i was very very in tune with my cycle and we didn't take risks in the fertile window. And he was very good at pulling out.

Fast forward to next partner... im now about to have his baby

Only do it if you know you would be happy to have the baby that could result from it, irresponsible heartbreak otherwise.

You will get lost in the moment and neither will want him to withdraw then Bang!!

That’s what nature intends.

No it isn’t

I fell pregnant last year with my DS this way

FFS grow up woman and take responsibility for yourself.!

At the very least, don't do it doggy style and start barking.

You will have a large litter of puppies.

Unless your a child - I think you already know the answer

Don't you have like 5 kids already.....I don't think you need us to tell you it's not a form contraception

This.

Ops previous posts are enlightening.

Of course it isn't a good idea.

Have you thought about having the surgery to not get pregnant anymore?

You have produced five kids. Come on. Ridiculous.

That's exactly how I got pregnant.

And no, he did not "finish" inside me. It must have dribbled out beforehand :-(

According to this thread it's pretty common.

If you're into anal i suppose it might be ok.

You’ll be back on here at some point with a I’m pregnant and didn’t expect it at all post

Yeah I thought that...
