Married and Using Condoms???

Belle101781 · August 2010

I have the nuvaring and we use condoms. For us, condoms are cheaper than kids at this point. lol

I haven't had any problems with the nuvaring or condoms. We agreed on this when we started dating.

I hated the Pill. I ended up getting pregnant and miscarrying on it. I quit and got pregnant with DD. We use condoms + NFP (trying to be super cautious) right now.

And for the PP that is allergic to condoms: we use non-latex Skyn.

We started marriage on the pill but I had some gnarly side effect and the Dr suggested coming off it. We're using just condoms now and we're considering an Merena after our first kid. We'll see.

We were using condoms but it took away the spontaneity and my husband hated how desensitizing they were. Recently got the Nuvaring bc i hardly have to think about it. And i'm paranoid about unwanted pregnancy so I also often use spermicide.

I was on BCP with no condoms for 7 years before we got married, and then I had a blood pressure issue, so I couldn't re-up my Rx...so, now we're using condoms, which sucks, but I was able to find a website that sells them in bulk, so it was a little cheaper. I have an appt in a few weeks to get a new Rx for BCP...

We are not having children so I was always pretty strict with BC but did have a time when we only used condoms. MH was okay with that and so was I but got the Paraguard last Feb. and now use only that. When my Paraguard is up, in 10 years, we'll have DH get a Vasectomy.

Before we were married through 3 months after we got married, I was on BCP (3.5 years total). Now we've been using FAM and condoms during fertile/questionable times for 8 months. Much happier being free of artificial hormones.

We only use condoms. I can't take birth control for health reasons. 3 years later with only condoms we are still childless

Next year sometime we will start TTC and not use anything.

I've been on the pill for 9mo but am thinking about getting off.

I hate the side effects.

Yes! Just rely on the pill and ditch the condoms! Sex is SOOO much better without it! Messy, but better!

DH and I have always just used condoms. I don't feel comfortable about going on BC and gaining weight and having all the side effects.

I have the Mirena IUD. We used condoms briefly in the beginning of our marriage, but they were very painful.
