I was just reading a post in there and,
whilst I totally sympathise with this
woman and realise she's having a very
difficult time something just jumped out
at me.
| Quote: |
tr> | i am a single
mother of 2 kids, I am 33 so this is not
the traditional type of oops im pregnant
situation, im educated and know better
than to not use
protection |
i find it strange that people can have an
unplanned pregnancy happen to them and
still believe that it only ususally
happens to uneducated young women who
don't bother using protection! I don't
believe there is such a thing as a
"traditional" pregnancy situation (each is
different right?) but it seems to be this
kind of belief which also leads to the
opinion that only a certain type of women
have abortions.
This isn't anything against this woman, I
just want to clarify that, but i'm well
educated and know to use protection (as
most women do - not bothering to use
anything is not generally what you seem to
come across when discussing this).
Rant over. :)

That is quite sad, someone who thought
that they are different just in education,
im educated and have two kids but I never
throw it in people's face.
Anywho you arent different and apply to
same rules as us other woman anyone can
get pregnant andyone can have abortion and
prejudice can actually show signs of
unitelligence but we wont go there...

It's just the typical stereotype that the
high school dropout working her life away
at mcdonald's is the one most likely to
get knocked up. Honestly, having an
education doesn't always make someone
smart in certain ways, but on the other
hand, being a dropout doesn't
automatically mean the person is stupid.
I agree that there's really no such thing
as a 'traditional' pregnancy, which I
assume the woman means 'planned'. How the
hell many people plan pregnancies anymore?
I think I once read that seventy percent
of pregnancies these days are unplanned.
It's kind of sad that there are that many
unplanned "miracles" out there, but
whatever.

Accidents on birth control can happen to
anyone of any social status, trust me.

Are you trying to tell us something in a
round-a-bout-way? Are you pregnant? Is
congratulations in order, or are you still
uncertaitn?
I know that b/c is not 100% safe for a
fact but I m/c with one. I had to abort
with the iud one but that was along time
ago and they have improved the iud since
that.
All the best to you .Eiri!

I actually have no idea. I've had two
periods since the incident, in which I
skipped (without having any 'no pill'
days) from the end of week one to the
start of week three, missing all of week
two. I had sex the day before my period
started. Then I had heavy vaginal
discharge the next month until week three,
when it lessened to almost nothing, and
then had another period that was slightly
lighter than normal. Now, I am on week
three once more, and though my discharge
was heavier than normal this month, it
wasn't as heavy as last month. I'm
scheduling for a pap smear soon anyway, so
then i'll know for sure.
And if I am pregnant, congradualtions
aren't in order, and aborton is.

why are you not taking the pill as it
should? |
it was an accident; I would never do this
on purpose. I left my pack down in my
college town. I made my mom drive me to
pp at 8 am the next day to pick up another
pack so I wouldn't miss any pills!! I'm
dedicated! I thought I was at the end of
week two, when I was only at the end of
week one. That's why I skipped week two,
totally on accident.

eiri how come you can miss a week? It is
so simple to follow. 3 weeks on, 1 week
off. If you are taking the pill everyday
there is no way you can't not know which
week you are in. I can understand that
if you left your pack somewhere else you
could be unsure of which day but if you
are unsure then go find the package or
find out someone who is near it and call
on the phone and see where you left off
and start the new package where you left
of. If you are still unable to find out
where you left of then start a new package
and restrain from sex for a week. How
complicated is that?

did you not read what I said?
I
left
my
pack
down
south.
And then I went the next day and got a
brand new one. I did not have the old
one for reference.
I didn't have to pay attention to what
week I was on when I was taking them
because each day just comes after the
next. I thought I was near the middle of
the pack; I didn't know the exact day.
By middle I mean the visual middle. My
pack is a circle. So I did not know
which day I was on. It's an honest
mistake. I didn't do it on purpose, and
besides this one time, I always take my
pills perfectly. I'm not one of those
teens or young women who go one the boards
and say "i missed my pills and then took
one and missed one and took one 5 hours
late omg what do I do!?" i'm more
responsible than that. Accidents
happen.
I'm a girl in a houseful of guys. You
honestly think it would even occour to me
to ask a guy to look at my birth control
pills? Birth control is private.

Hey, mistakes happen and it's obvious that
this lady tried to take her pill
correctly. I don't think she deserves a
verbal beating for an honest mistake.
I really hope you are not pregnant, eiri.
Would a pregnancy test show an accurate
result yet? If you have had 2 periods
since the incident then I should think you
are in the clear.
Fingers crossed.

it would; but I currently have no money, I
have to wait for classes to start next
monday heh. I have finally, finally, been
able to come to terms with this, and the
desicion I may have to make. I've felt at
peace with that.

Good luck to you, eiri. I don't know if
you're a student, but by all means do not
let some kid ruin your life while you're
in the process of making it.
I never realized how many people here are
incapable of reading. I cringe to think
any of these people graduated.

I got pregnant on the pill and
depo-provera and depo you cant f*ck up on
so please refrain from telling people they
makes mistakes when these things happen.
We will probally have one more and then
one of us gets fixed, I dont want anymore
but my husband does and I know I will love
the kid after (yes I love babies.)
eiri good luck ill be here for you no
matter what choice you make!
