Pull out method

Anyone used the pull out method and have gotten pregnant? I've had 2 babies, but both were planned. We used the pull out method this time but not sure how well it works. :-/ I am not due for my period till the 14th so a little nervous that I could be since I was ovulating.

Thank you ladies. I've never used this method until now, and have made an appt for an IUD. :) I will also be checking a pregnancy test this weekend . Will update you then. :)

I honestly think that's got to be the worst form of birth control ever. That being said, we used it successfully for five years. But in three weeks we will be welcoming our baby girl into the world! I wouldn't change this outcome for anything. If you absolutely do not want to get pregnant, I suggest better contraception from your doctor. When my girl comes into the world on the 30th, I am also set up for a tubal ligation. No more worries ever!

Yeah I got pregnant on the pull out method with my first. It's not a very reliable form of contraception if you really don't want to be pregnant.
Statistics show that every couple who uses it correctly 4 in 100 will be pregnant. And for every couple who don't use it correctly 20 in 100 will become pregnant, this doesn't include the risks of pre ejaculate, which can also get you pregnant.
