For those of you who had unintentional or "accidental" pregnancies what were the circumstances (if you don't mind sharing)?

Condom Break? Pull out method failed? He didn't pull out in time? Didn't take birth control as prescribed?

I hear/see so many people saying they got pregnant unintentionally or accidentally and it just amazes me how often it happens while some people try and try to get pregnant and dont'/can't.

ETA- for those of you saying the withdrawal method failed can you be more specific?  Did he pull out in time but you still got pregnant or did he just not pull out in time. 

The reason I ask it that I've always used withdrawl method and just not had sex on days around ovulation.  But somehow this week I miscounted or something.  Thought I wasn't ovulating til this Monday or Tuesday but according to my chart I most likely ovulated the middle of this past week...

  • both of my pregnancies were opps!! i was on birth control and took it the same every day...but it just did not work for me. i wound up getting preggers with my twins at same time i was weaning my older child from breast feeding. i asked the doc if the birth control would still work and he assured me it would be fine!! it wasnt. but they are all welcome if not a shock for dh and i lol.

  • my first was not really accedental but unexpected... my DH was told he would never have kids but 3 years with him and i got pregnant. This one was unplaned. we were using condoms and the condom just failed. it didnt break it didnt fall off and it was on as it should have been it just out right failed.

  • I was on Depo (1/2 way through my shot cycle) when I conceived my oldest, Id been on depo almost a yr at the time. My second child was conceived 2 weeks after a MC (also unplanned we we're using condoms and they must have failed we used them all the time and none broke)  and I had just started back on the pill, it was the first time DH and I had sex after the mc and got a little carried away we figure being so close to the mc and having started the pills we were safe.. wrong!


     the reason the pull out method doesnt work is because of pre-cum guys release sperm through out sex not just during orgasm

  • all of mine have been unplanned. the first 2 i was a teen and complete idiot. the 1st should have never happened and the baby didnt happen, the 2nd i was taking the pill but just taking it wrong and he would never wear condoms. again my fault. i miscarried so baby never happened. the other 2 were with my dh and we have 2 dds. the first dd was taking the pill correctly and no condom. the second was using condoms that didnt break and no pill. how that works i dont know so now we always use condoms and the pill lol. i am extremely fertile says my obgyn.

  •   LOL. I would say stupidity.  I thought I was in the "safe" time period but I was wrong.  Hubby and I were on a trip and just not paying attention!

  • Well, my husband had been gone for about 4 weeks and was only home for 3 before he deployed, so needless to say we were a little eager.  I  guess I miscounted, and thought I was already past my fertile days, but I wasnt.  We got careless one time and he waited too late to pull out.  I didnt think anything of it at the time, but a couple weeks later I found out I was pregnant.
