I wouldn`t take it irregardless,but especially if he didn`t want me to. I would be more responsible so it wouldn`t even be an issue. I would only use it in case of rape...etc...not from just having sex with my husband.

How can you take the morning after pill but not be able to take a regular birth control pill due to health problems? From what I understand they`re basically the same thing...Regardless, as to your question if my SO and I were using condoms that means we *both* don`t want a baby and I would take the morning after pill if the condom broke. If I decided not to use a condom because I didn`t feel like it, that`s another story..kind of sounds like I wouldn`t mind having a baby...

You said you dont use condoms all the time and this is the morning after pill so it is easy to assume that you are considering it as contraception when you dont use a condom. If thats the case, not a good idea as is not what it was intended for. Bottom line, your SO begged you not to take it which means he has a strong emotional opinion on it that should be considered.

i am more against abortions and `killing babies` than most people, but i dont believe taking the morning after pill counts as killing a baby, she never said she uses it as birth control. its completely different than getting an abortion and the guy being torn up about it for a length of time

proud-mum (950.2 days ago)
Just to clarify i don`t `use the morning after pill as contraception`. I`ve never even taken it before??

It is not to be used as contraception, if you dont want a baby use condoms all the time. If you dont want to use a condom then I`m sorry but you should refrain from sex or consider getting your tubes tied. I knows its a passion killer but it is potentially killing a baby and shouldnt be used as a form of birth control it is for emergencies. Thats just wrong, sorry. If I got pregnant and was in a relationship I wouldnt ever just take the pill without taking into consideration his feelings. It is his child too. A relationship is about respecting the others feelings and a pregnancy is a huge one to respect. Doesnt mean you need to keep the pregnancy just means you need to discuss it together. Bottom line though it sounds like you are using it as contraception and that is not what it is for.

It says not to use it as a form of protection, only to be used in an emergency, so if you can take other measures than you should. And it might be your body but its his baby as well. If I didn`t want another baby I and couldn`t use any form of protection besides condoms I would use condoms or not have sex.

proud-mum (950.3 days ago)
I can`t take any other contraception due to health problems. We use condoms most of the time, but not 100% of the time, because tbh I find them a passion killer ha.

I think you shouldn`t be doing anything that would cause you to have to take the morning after pill if you know you don`t want to have another baby. As in, use protection and be more responsible to prevent it from happening. Just my opinion.

You`re in a relationship, so his opinion matters just as much as yours IMO. It is his possible baby also; not just yours.

  1. Silly poll, just checking the odds.. for parents of 3+kids, did you have:
  2. Career conundrum... Opinions valued (particularly from teachers - but I would value advice from anyone). Details inside.
  3. At what age do you think it`s appropriate to drop your child off at a sporting training (not a school sport, a sports club such as soccer, footy, tennis, netball club etc), and come at the end to pick them up?
  4. If you saw a car up your next-door neighbour`s drive (evening), would you make a social visit (and didn`t know them very well)?


  5. So this is what the Tooth Fairy would be like if the roles were reversed haha!
  6. Bookworms - is anyone reading the new Khaled Hosseini book `And the Mountains Echoed`? I pre-ordered it on kindle which should have arrived today (I haven`t checked yet) but was wondering if anyone would be interested in a group read?
  7. HELP - my 3 year old daughter is developing a phobia to fluff! I feel responsible, I have a ridiculous phobia of bees and wasps - to the point it hinders my ability to enjoy playing out in the garden during the summer, it`s detrimental. My kids have picked up on this and are sh*t scared of bees and wasps, but with my daughter it was soon spiders, then ants and now, tiny black bits of fluff - which she finds all over; on her pillow etc. It`s genuine terror in her face as she screams she can see them moving and they`re `going to get her` or `bite her`. What do I do? She`s old enough to be reasoned with that they don`t move and we pick most of them off before bedtime, but she wakes in the night and starts crying that `The Fluff`s coming...!!` How can I help her? Do you think this is just a phase or do you think it`s worth seeking some sort of external, professional help to nip this in the bud? I HATE the thought of passing on my phobias and anxieties to my children - it`s no way to live to be a constant worrier about things beyond your control and I;ve suffered with anxiety and panick attacks for nearing 6 years now and can`t ever remember just feeling `normal` and `well` - I can`t remember my life before my first panick attack. This is NOT what I want for my children...
  8. On Facebook I saw one of those like pictures, a mom who sent her child to school for days wearing out of style `ugly` clothes because she was bullying another girl about her clothes. Mom`s yourselves, what do you think of this type of punishment?
  9. Can anyone relate? My 4 year old is making all sorts of amazing connections which is great that he`s thinking about the world, but some of his thoughts are quite deep. He`s a natural born worrier (gets that from me!) and I try to protect him from as much as I can but there`s things that can`t be avoided. Ie, ever since Easter, he`s been plagued with fear about getting holes in him like Jesus (he learnt it at Kindy). Well just this evening he came out with `Why do you and Margo (Grandma) have holes in your ears like Jesus? Did you get your ears nailed to a cross?` He`s also obsessed with the fear of death.
  10. Family of 4 flying Southwest tomorrow (2.5-hr flight), baby riding in carseat on plane so can only sit by window. Flight is full. Which seating arrangement would you choose...
