Warning Double Protection

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Ladies this is a warning for all your benefits do not just rely on condoms alone.

I am on the wait list to be steralized.

So was using condoms only remember a few weeks ago when I said about the condom splitting. Well I took the morning after pill.

Regular guy I know he is clean but.

I have just found out that I am pregnant.

I have the weekend to think about it and am booking an appointment at the doctors next week.

Some may knock me but I am doing the only sensible thing as I do not want to be a single parent to three children.

I have raised my two solo and I can not go through it again.

So this is a warning to all you ladies to think about full protection not just against stds.

And I am hanging my swinging hat up for the time being until my head is back in the right place and when I am fully 100% protected x

Love to you all x

Very brave of you to bare yourself so openly, I take my hat off to you. No one has the right to judge you, you will do what is best for you, and the best of luck to you. Recently my dsughter had to make such a difficult decision, but due to health issues, she had the choice of going blind or at worse dying if the pregnancy continued, and as she has 2 girls to think about she didnt feel she had an option.

There are probably support groups or independent people you can talk to. I suppose we all are here - but speaking in person to someone might help.

Id say to go with your immediate gut feeling and trust it.

Speak to the guy though as it shouldnt be an exclusive decision. I believe the woman should make the ultimate decision with absolute knowledge of what the future will hold though.

Best of luck whichever xx

to be honest with you i think your doing the right thing if you are worried about how you will cope alone with another child

Its easy to stick your head in the sand and hope everything will turn out ok and bring a child into this world that you struggle to cope with, it happens all the time, its a lot harder to stand up and do what you know is for the best inside, rather than putting on a show for other people and doing what you think they want you to do

What a terrible situation! Rock and a hard place comes to mind but from all that u have said shazza I think ur defiantly making the right decision. Not fair on u or the child to that isn't truly wanted.

As for the other side of the coin I understand that too but I think u have to be a special sort of person to e able to carry a child and willingly give it away! Surrogates r able to look at it as a business transaction I guess, to grow a child is a very special thing and I know I would live it before its birth.

Life is hard regardless of which side ur on.

Hold on a sec... an innocent life has to be lost because what... you weren't careful?

That's hardly fair is it.

If you knew you were still able to get pregnant and relied on condoms to prevent it then why should an unborn baby pay for your mistake?

I don't agree with abortion under any circumstances (except rape or if pregnancy would kill the mother) because there is a choice to prevent yourself getting pregnant in the first place.

You mentioned the father being 'clean' so it makes me question whether you use condoms as protection against STDs and completely disregarded the risk of pregnancy.

No one has the right to judge. Every one has opinions beliefs etc but who are we to judge no one is perfect just some think they are. I would not continue a pregnancy I use condoms and have a implant so take precautions but I have a disable child to consider. Those who say no abortion do you say I should not have sex just in case. If I was going bare back and not using implant or pill etc then that's different but I take double precautions. OP is on here for others benefit we should not judge. we swingers should that not mean we more open minded. Beliefs are one thing af judgmental is another

every women has the rights to decide what they do with their body

If a child isnt wanted, in my opinion, its better thats its not born than be born into a world where its unwanted, unloved and uncared for

Pregancies arnt always the result of unsafe sex, i got pregnant after my ex had the snip so you cant say that was my fault for not being careful

Ok i had the child as i was in a marrage at the time, had it happened when i was single with someone i just swung with as a result of a condom coming off or splitting i dont think id feel the same

There is no form of contraception that is 100% safe apart from the word no

I think its really unfair to suggest that the OP was'nt careful,she did the next thing she possibly could after the contraception she chose failed,she did what any sensible person would do and what any GP would have advised which was take the morning after pill,which still did'nt work

Is it fair to bring another child in to the world to be a single mother again. To give up a job that I love and to go on benefits to support another child and to struggle not just financially but emotionally too. And to put that on to my other children. Do I want this child to be resented x

Said it so much better than I could HPC, my ruddy tongue is nigh on bitten thru now...I very much appreciate Shazza posting this as a warning regardless of her heartbreaking decision - I'm still fertile (I guess, never having had children) and rely purely on condoms for both contraception and protection - have in the past had condoms split once or twice and if the bloke hasn't had the snip I've taken the morning after pill as well as made a clap clinic visit couple of weeks later...Now I'm thinking about other contraception methods as a further backup

i honestly dont think theres a right or wrong when it comes to abortion, no matter how the child is conceived, its the womens body and the woman who will sit in and bring it up so the only choice that matters is hers and what she wants to do

lets be honest in this situation where someones met you for a shag and you get pregnant is the dad really going to be there for you? is he bollocks, most guys on here dont even give you their real name and have a shag phone so you dont know their usual number, and would be off like a shot soon as they realise whats happening, off to carry on their life as normal without giving this child a second thought, yet the womans supposed to lay in the bed she made while the guys off into the sunset off to shag his next meet?

I found myself in same situation last summer... though not through fab. I had a termination at 7 weeks... Paid privately through Bpas. I will be honest and say i found the nhs treated me like a naughty school girl as opposed to a married mother of 3 hence why i went private. Its not an easy decision but as long as you are 100% certain then you know you are doing what is right for you and your family. There is nothing wrong with abortion.... It is legal for a reason. And just because other people cant have children or are opposed to abortion it doesnt give them a right to judge. Chin up... I know its horrible but it will be over soon and you will know you have done the right thing xxx

You did everything you possibly could and we greatly admire your tenacity to post here of your experience.

Regardless of our _iews or anyone else's on abortion, it is your body and your choice.

As someone who has prayed and cried for a child every single day for over 3 years, this is a really hard thread to read.

However, I wouldn't wish your situation on my worst enemy and wish you the best.

Also there is no method which gives 100% guarantee of preventing pregnancy... Even sterilisation can fail.

Good luck in whatever you decide is the right option for you, only you can make that choice and no one should judge you either way. I guess I'm lucky in that its not something I have to worry about as I definitely can no longer get pregnant but I have to admit that I do worry that my other half could get someone pregnant in the event of an "accident"

I sure do, but our experiences shape us and the way we think about certain issues. A child of mine was aborted when I was 19. I wanted that child but she decided abortion was the best option for her and I had no say in the matter. I was the child's father yet my rights didn't have any part to play in it at all, but you can bet your bottom dollar if she'd had the child and decided she didn't want me in her life I'd suddenly become very culpable and have to start paying (which I would have anyway). That child would have been 28 now and probably a parent him/herself.

Ever since then I have been anti-abortion and I almost jumped for joy recently when proposals to reduce the time available for abortion to twelve weeks were put forward. It should have been 24 hours in my opinion and if the morning after pill doesn't work then tough, deal with the consequences of one's actions.

Pretty disgusted at the mention of abortion being unacceptable as a choice, and I mean this to both OP and the partner of the time.Whether its safe sex or not, with anyone..it was sex.Bringing up a child to me should be about 2parents equally wanting a child.I'd wish more people would have sense to abort than add to a list of notplanned children.Seek no justification from others when it comes to ur own body and future!

Really dont think I want to rant on this thread.

Take care OP x

There are some naive on this site so I do believe the OP was genuine in her wanting to warn some females on here who may think condoms are all you need after all how many times have you seem a forum where those who use condoms do not see the need to be tested. I think anythin that opens some eyes to the realitys of our lifestyle is a good thing and that the lady's intention should not be questioned when there are those on this site who are blind to some realitys. I have my opinions about other topics on here that I really do not see myself ever agreeing to such as bareback not to bare back is my choice it does not make me any better than ladies that will it's my choice not to and their choice to no one is wrong no one is right. I far from perfect. For example I meet married men many will not so I hardly in a position to get all moral on bare back or indeed any other topic. No one is faultless esp me

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

The only safe, 100% reliable contraception is no sex. It wouldn't matter if the OP was on the pill, double bagged with a condom and fendom, and bounced on a trampoline for an hour after sex, there is always a risk of pregnancy when ejaculation is involved. And as abortion and the morning after pill are also classed as birth control (as in, it prevents birth) then why not use all methods available when an unwanted pregnancy occurs?

It sounds like the OP and gentleman in question have discussed this, and agreed not to proceed with the pregnancy. Therefore there is no reason why she shouldn't terminate it. Better that than risk 9 months of illness, heightened risk of death, an unwanted child, and struggling to give all children a good life on benefits.

It seems that people just can't win sometimes. Terminate and be villified as a thoughtless jezebel, keep the child and be villified for having children and claming benefits. Being a single parent is HARD! I stopped at one and struggled, so can't even concieve of having more, especially at my age. I am on the coil but have always said if I got pregnant I would be down the doctors with a coathanger as, at 45, the risk to me and the baby would be just too high.

I think forcing women to have children when contraception fails is going down a path that is unacceptable. This is not the dark ages!

Yes the warning is valid and hopefully some woman will learn from this. Tbh for someone who didn't want any more kids and was waiting to be sterilised I would have thought the smartest thing would be to use several forms of protection but that's just my oppinion.

When I first read this it did suprise me to read such personal stuff being aired on a public forum. It's very private decision and something I would have thought could have been kept private and your point about contraception still could have gotten said. Now this thread has become all about terminations rather than the original topic. And yes I know it's great all the support but the post was started to make others aware that condoms alone aren't enough.

I've had maybe a dozen men check about contraception/ inform me they'd had the snip in addition to using condoms, though. In most cases there is no question from them. Contraception is still sadly often seen by many as down to the woman."
I dont think its a "blame the guys" thing although i take on board what you have said and agree again, but i will say we ( as women) need to just manage the risks if there are any as we are left holding the baby so to speak, its not the guys fault, its how we are bioligically made, and some, may just look for someone to blame in a situation they are not happy about being in.

It's a strange thing tho Ruggers about Fab in general and The Forums in particular.

The site is a great leveller for most and I tend to find that people do 'open up' about things that affect their lives more honestly than they would in every day life.

Not all, but some.

There exists, whether some recognise it or not, a sense of community and camaraderie that can lull us into a sense of perceived security.

Add to that the fact that we are told that writing things down can be a great way of expressing emotion and you have the recipe for a thread such as this.

In terms of the 'warning' I think that is perhaps a badly chosen set of words that people should be able to recognise.

Irregardless of what the back story is, the OP has found herself in a position she would sooner not be in and wisely or unwisely has chosen to share that experience with us.

I can see why some may see it as an error of judgement (and I too can see why they might think that) but in all fairness, I see the thread as a knee jerk to finding herself in an unenviable position (for the most part) and in light of her not having strong family relationships has shared that position with us instead.

Personally I see no harm in that and I think that the OP in this case is experienced enough in the forums to know that whilst the majority would offer compassion and understanding, she was probably acutely aware that some feathers would be ruffled.

I think overall the thread has run a much steadier path than it could have !

but that does not mean i think everyoen should share my _iews

if abortions was banned what would happen to all the unwanted kids, more would live in homes where they was unloved, social servies cant sope as it is and care homes would be over run, are care homes and being fostered from family to family rerally a stable unbringing for unwanted kids?

ok in a idea world all unwanted kids would be adopted out at birth to loving familys but as we all know its not an ideal world and that wouldnt happen would it

People would take their 'mistakes' home with them and take their unhappiness and frustration out on the child

we all cope in different ways and if shaz finds this is her way of coping thats fine and upto her and i for one wont condone her for it

There are probably support groups or independent people you can talk to. I suppose we all are here - but speaking in person to someone might help.

Id say to go with your immediate gut feeling and trust it.

Speak to the guy though as it shouldnt be an exclusive decision. I believe the woman should make the ultimate decision with absolute knowledge of what the future will hold though.

harsh but i live in the real world and it happens

People take their mistakes out on their children anyway, the existence of social services family division is evident enough of that. It's a strange connection to make with child abuse and abortion but yes I accept that there probably will be feelings of resentment towards a child who it's mother couldn't dispose of when it was a foetus but I believe this breakdown in society we've seen over the past 20-30 years is due mainly to a collapse in family values and our reliance upon a throwaway society to cure us of any problems we generate whilst pursuing a selfish lifestyle.

It bothers me that when a 5y/o girl in Wales goes missing there is a national outcry of emotion but many thousands of unborn children die each year in abortion clinics at the hands of doctors with their mother's willing co-operation and when someone speaks out for those lost voices he/she is told to not judge others and a woman's body is her own. Yes it is her own, until she uses it to generate life, albeit unwittingly at times, and then her body isn't hers for the period that another life is growing inside it.

Abortion is legal in this country and I respect any woman's decision to go ahead with a termination, but I don't have to agree to it, I don't have to support it, and I shouldn't be silenced if I speak out against it.

I've never had a problem with Shazza on here before and I've enjoyed her posts. I wish her no ill will and she'll do what she feels is best for her and her family.

I'm not sorry for not falling over myself to say 'aw shucks, sorry luv' when we all know that when we become sexually active that there is a very high probability that at some point there will be children conceived as a result of it. If the OP absolutely didn't want anymore children she should have done something about it a lot sooner and laid off the sex until she was 100% certain she couldn't get pregnant."
ok i would like to put this _iew forward cause i had two children with a man and we were married. he left i actually thought i had been burgled until i realised it was just his stuff. he either pays nor gives a shit but me i bring them up on my own pay for them and not ask for anything for state or him. now if i could turn back time like fuck would i have had them with a guy who pleases himself while i struggle everyday. so glad u can keep your _iews as imo until u walked a mile in someone else shoes its wise not to judge as who knows when it will be us but then as a man u can always walk away while as a woman its very unlikely

"my problem with this _iew is as a man u don't have to take any of the responisblity unless u choose to but u can sit and judge "

Hold on a sec... I pleaded with the mother who aborted our baby 28 years ago to have the child and then I'd raise it if she didn't want anything to do with it, and that's when she claimed the moral high ground and said if she had the baby she could never give it away. She had no problem terminating it though, which I thought a tad hypocritical. I mourned that child as much as if it had been born and then passed away. Some men can - and do - walk away, many millions don't though and we take our responsibilities very seriously.

For me i could never carry and bond with a baby then after carrying it for 9 months and give it away that would truly break my heart.

To Wishy,

You are totally entitled to your opinion, and Im sorry about your experience when you were 19.

However I am sorry you chose to kick the OP when she is down, motivated because of your experience and obvious pain you still feel.

It came across in your posts that you were hitting out at shazza rather than that girl who fell pregnant many years ago and made a decision you didnt agree with.

It has been good to hear other peoples opinions about prolife. And Im glad they have started their posts with 'im not judging you'!!

Shazza doesnt deserve a kicking in here when she is going through such a difficult time.

But a balanced debate about abortion/prolife is more positive.

I think what men and all women who havent been through an abortion need to bare in mind, is we have no idea what a woman facing that decision is going through!!

Lots of hugs to you shazza

I have to say that as an anti-abortionist my initial reaction to the original post was 'you made your bed lie in it'. I can see however that it isn't as simple as that. Abortion as a means of belated contreception is evil,its murder and nothing anyone can say will convince me otherwise. I can see in this instance this is not the case. I'll be perfectly honest,I'm not sure how to reacte to this except to say. God bless!

Firstly to op my thoughts are with you. And if you need one more ear to bash then you only have to message me.

I've not read all the posts so only answering to the first post. Many as I'm in the world's worst moods and can guess at some people's attitudes.

This is a hard decision whatever the reasons. I used to work with young mums and pregnant teenagers and went along with a few when they decided against carrying on with pregnancy. I saw first hand the torment.

My advice to them and to you is the same. You have to do what is right for you. And people that really care will support you no matter what.

All the best.

Cali

It came across in your posts that you were hitting out at shazza rather than that girl who fell pregnant many years ago and made a decision you didnt agree with.

You're very wrong about me Oral, I came to terms with it a long long time ago but it did form my early opinions on abortion as at the time I was too young and inexperienced to have a _iew on it that was based on some form of education about it. Over time my _iews on abortion have been reinforced by documentaries like 'The Silent Scream' (Google it but be warned it hits hard). Intertwined with personal experience is my general stance on pro-Life as I have a huge interest in The Universe and the complexity of myriad chemical balances that have to be struck in order for life to exist and when you realise that there are literally millions of dead worlds out there and that there is this little ball of blue floating about in the vast inky blackness it's then you realise just what a miraculous set of circumstances have to be in play to create life, yet some casually throw it away like yesterday's garbage. I'm not anti-abortion because each aborted baby might become a world famous scientist or a life changing world leader but because life itself is miraculous to even exist and because we take it for granted we don't value the true beauty in it.

A bit off the beaten track I know but that's where my _iews originate from, not what a 19y/o girl did 28 years ago but that also formed part of who I am today.

OK, NOW you've overstepped the mark.

How dare you compare an abortion to a miscarriage??? I had a miscarriage. I wanted that baby with every fibre in my body and I did NOTHING to deserve loosing it. You cannot compare the two. You are making the decision to get rid of your baby. You. Are. Making. That. Choice. I had that choice taken away from me.

You've made your decision and that's fair enough but don't try and justify it by making mass (incorrect) sweeping statements like that!

I think the original poster was just saying it's the same process.

I've had a termination and miscarriages. Neither were pleasant to get through. In some ways the termination harder as it was an actual choice.

I'm sure the op meant no offence.

We all make decisions that are our own choosing, and we have to live the consequences of our decisions.

Just because I do not agree with someone's lifestyle choices or decisions, does not mean they are necessarily wrong!

Sometimes I do feel people are way too judgemental for their own good!

It's not murder. Back of a bit. I am sure we have all made mistakes and this post was to highlight to others a possible risk.

Women have every right to abort. It's not murder and those that spout that annoy me. As its hard enough decision as it is.

For everyone berating the OP for her choice of contraception.... Bear in mind that this happens to many people who use condoms along with another form of birth control.

And when I lost two babies shortly after conception the medical term was not miscarriage, it was spontaneous abortion.

The body itself aborts if the cells are not right or the foetus may not develop properly. Who is to say that this may not yet happen to Shazza.

It does. I fell pregnant taking the pill and using condoms. And morning after pill was taken in the op case.

Some people also can not use other forms of contraception.

I'm sorry, I think maybe the OP should should have kept this to herself and just some close friends, but I am truely shocked at some of the comments given on here, especially from women! Whilst I do not have kids and never wanted them, I would never go on my high horse and openly berate someone's choice, as the saying goes, do not judge someone unless you are walking in their shoes, so I will say shame on a lot you, if you didn't like the post, you shouldn't have answered it!

I have a implant and use condoms but I know I could get pregnant but I feel I taking reasonable precautions to prevent as much as I can short of not having sex and I not going to go down that road. As long as both parties take precautions I don't see why anyone should judge when the precautions fail

I've read most of the posts in this thread.

Personally I don'think this is the thread to discus peoples _iews. I don't know the op but think this is a time to offer support or bite tongues. Some people may not like the way she worded the post but she is going through a very tough time. Only she can decide what is right for her. I am sure she has thought this through very carefully. As she says she has no one else but us to talk to. No one on this site to judge her. We all have done many things that could have gone wrong and many times we didn't even think about the risks because it didn't go wrong... I wish her well and say to those who want to coment of the right or wrongs... Start your own thread and leave the op in peace. There are many places in this world where you can be judged but few where you can get a non judgementle hug. Let this be one little island of sanctury for the op...

I have never understood it being murder. It's not a person at that stage. Just a cluster of cells which could fail anyway.

I do think that abortion shouldn't be used as contraception. I do think that the limit shouldn't be as it is. But I certainly would not condemn the women that find themselves in this situation as murderers.

When there is legitimate cause and this includes the emotional and mental well being of the woman needs taking into account too.

I've seen the results some comments can have no women that choose this difficult course of action. I've seen the guilt and torment.

There are people in this world who would only have sex for procreation purposes, in many peoples lifestyles this is not the case.

The right to procreate is a given, as should the right not to so.By genetic accounts, every one of us should have the drive to pass on our genes...sorry 'our' world just does not work like that.I mean 'our', as in being conscious beings.

I believe as its a case of human females always being in 'season', thats basically just carried over through our short history- i.e the production of big families for survival purposes.Thats not the world today is it(with the exception of the third world, that is a drive to preserve)?

As for murder..? I really didnt expect to see that,and cant agree with that standpoint.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

OP - I have fallen pregnant on every form of contraception I have ever used. Even when taking double precautions. I understand your pain and I welcome your warning as some people (us) are unlucky and fecund at the same time. Those of you that are peri or menopausal are at risk too.

I have lost of all those pregnancies with only one being born alive. I had to face the decision too and I know the decision to terminate is not an easy one. I have made the decision in the past and the subsequent miscarriage left me devasted.

Be kind to yourself. Listen as well as talk during the counselling. Allow yourself time to recover and grieve. Take up the follow-up counselling and find someone you can confide in.

My thoughts are with you.
