Contraception Methods

I think I'm gonna go with TMI on that one. Thanks.

I suppose. just informing talented with my experience. Maybe itll come in usefull to you someday. And what'd you expect this thread to be like? "well theres a shot, a pill, a patch, a morning after pill, mirena and they are all birth control" END...? lol :P

Kagom's method sounds like the most humane.

I was being facetious.

I would never make a thread entitled Contraception Methods.

I've been duped.

Damn Lenny!

Just another thing about the shot, aside from the Weight-gain and mood swings, etc other side effects. You CAN get pregnant within the next two years if you get up and quit taking the shot. The fucked up thing about it being in your system is that if you do happen to get pregnant after you're done with the shot is your child has something like a 30% chance of having some sort of disability... Or atleast from what I understood. Or maybe that's if you get pregnant while on your cycle.

I'm not sure, just quit having sex = Best contraceptive method.

D3V, head activist for Abstinence. Me no sex biiiiig winnnar!

I remember that shit in Jr High. The APE club or whatever they we're called, I actually went to one of the meetings and felt like killing myself. I remember asking one of the women counselors that had went *BACK* to abstience what the hell was so wrong with having sex before your married? I mean if marriage is such a big thing, then you should atleast try your partner out a few times before you committ, if you are going to stay with them the rest of your life atleast.

she said that it causes splotting (random period like bleeding) for the first 2 years.

It's called "spotting"

And as far as the pill bleeding goes, if you keep up on it you shouldn't bleed. If you miss a pill your body almost gets tricked into a period and you bleed a minimal amount.

I'm pretty sure it depends on the one you're on. Nikki has been on 2-3 different ones in the past year+, never missed a pill, and she's always had her period like normal and spotted occasionally on a couple of them.

I do know for a fact that she has never missed a pill, though. I make sure of it.

I want too, hell I wanted to before this one. She wants MORE kids in another few years.

Bet your kids will feel really loved if they ever hear that. You pretty much just said you didn't even want the kid you've got right now.

At least he's honest? You know there are such things as unplanned pregnancies. I wouldn't want a kid at his age, either.

I understand that there are such things as unplanned pregnancies, I don't live in a hole.

Still seems fucked up to say that you don't want a kid when you've GOT a kid.

Well I doubt he'd ever tell her that. I don't think you can judge him unless you've been in his situation.

I most certainly can.

I've never been an evil dictator either but I can still say Saddam was an asshole.

What thanatos is saying is that probably most guys don't want to have a kid at that age and do regret the situation. I'd feel the same way if my girlfriend got pregg-o, and I'm sure most other guys do. My parents even joke about me being the 'mistake' child, or atleast my dad does, it's just a guy thing.

If you honestly regret having a kid after you do, give it to someone who actually wants it IMO. I can understand not wanting to have a kid, but once you do have a kid, if you still regret it, you're doing an injustice to both yourself and to the kid.

Another thing I suppose he was trying to infer is that he does want a kid, just the timing is off. Atleast that's how I feel about it..

Yes, because he was saying he wanted a vasectomy, that definately means he wanted kids later in life but not right now.

No numb nuts, I'm talking about the kid he already has.
