dylanmiles23 2,198 Posted October 9, 2013 I originally started and completed all of my pre op requirements at Bellevue Hospital and they require you to see a "family planning" specialist' date=' which means you have to go on birth-control prior to surgery to ensure you do not get pregnant right after lap-band. I was pretty PISSED because I have this stupid pride in the fact that hubby and I have NEVER used any birth control method besides pulling out. I opted for a IUD because it's non-hormonal and I don't have to do anything for it to work. Now I'm kinda HAPPY it's there because after losing nearly 40lbs, I'm the one who usually initiates Hubby doesn't know it's there so we are still pulling out. He doesn't know not because I WANT to keep it a secret, it's because the prankster in me wants to one day have an "accident" and keep him guessing (and worried) for a few weeks. But I REALLY want to tell him already so we don't always have to.... you know.... Pull out.[/quote'] I had an IUD and 2 months later I was pregnant. My son is 38 1/2 years old. Talk to your husband. Pulling out isn't birth control because sometimes sperm leaks out. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotButterFly 981 Posted October 9, 2013 I had an IUD and 2 months later I was pregnant. My son is 38 1/2 years old. Talk to your husband. Pulling out isn't birth control because sometimes sperm leaks out. Good luck It's not, it's Russian roulette, but he has perfected the craft for 10 years now; however, now you're scaring me with your 38 year old son. Yikes!! Maybe we should continue to pull out even when I tell him. Thanks for that INFO! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BayougirlMrsS 3,935 Posted October 9, 2013 Let's look at the list of BC i had tried. Started after the birth of my first son at the tinder age of 16. First it was the Pill, ortho novum 1/50 (these worked great, but back in the 80ies they got pulled), so then the 1/35 made me either sick or have BTB. Plus i would forget to take them...So we went to the foam.. nasty and messy..., moved on to the diaphragm severe infections... back to the pill.. 7/7/7, not good sick and still would forget to take them... Got Divorced... :D So when i has sex.. used condoms. Got remarried... Used the PULL out method... BAM here comes Jason. After Jason, we tried the pill again... nope, so we did the Shot... worst one ever... gained 50lbs in 3 months. Got off that... In went the IUD... That stayed for about two years when i started with severe cramping and bleeding. Went to doc, IUD had either fallin or was placed wrong... it was down into my uterus coming out the cervix Got that removed.....along with a DNC. Started the BEST BIRTH CONTROL EVER.... the nuva Ring. Who ever invented this is a freaking genius.... Stayed with that for years till i had my Hysterectomy. So if there is a birth control out there i have probably tried it.... hehehe. By far the best was the Nuva Ring. Insert.... leave for 3 weeks, take out... throw away. Week later, put in new one. Now your hubby will fill this, but it is ok to remove during sex. you just have to remember to replace right after you are finished. So you can keep this a secret too if you wanted. Good luck darling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChicagoRose 650 Posted October 9, 2013 I went apeshit on the IUD...I already have emotional and anxiety problems and it was so bad I actually took a swing at my husband who is NOTHING but loving and supportive because he stepped into an argument between me and my mother. IUD came out the following week and he went in for a vasectomy instead. You are kinky, girl. I love it. =) 1 eatoandc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
