Withdrawal method? - Page 2

Sarah lo · Mar 19th, 2012, 14:58 PM

We did for a couple of years. I came off the pill as soon as we got engaged with a view to TTC as soon as we got married as I wanted the effects of the pill to be completely gone when we started trying. We even used that method where you only DTD on days in your cycle when you're not likely to be ovulating (not sure what its called) as I was regular as clockwork lol

We got pregnant on the first try

Edit: I don't think I'd use that method again now, though knowing how easily I got preggers LOL!

I think its only natural to worry about your fertility especially when you get closer to TTC. I know I do and I'm on the implant. Good Luck I'm sure all will be fine.

TMI but how does the guy... finish?

To answer your TMI question with a TMI answer...

If they just pull out right before they are about to finish then it's a bad idea, because they probably end up finishing half inside and half outside.
What my boyfriend does is pull out a little bit before so that he has to finish it himself. Usually it's close enough though that it only takes a few seconds, so there is no pre-finish awkwardness. I don't even really have time to get in there and help haha.

Im glad to hear you have used the method for a while too. I think the reason i am freaking out a bit is i was talking about BC with a friend recently and when i told her the method i use, she looked at me like i had 2 heads

I suppose some people dont understand thats a very reliable form of contraceptive but you really need to practice it properly.
I cant wait to start TTC so i can find out if we were good at it or not

A lot of women don't really consider the withdrawal method a form of contraception and basically think anyone who is using that method is having unprotected sex, iykwim? Not sure if I really explained my thoughts well enough for it to make sense.

I would normally use my hand and finish OH myself after he pulled out. He could also finish himself with his hand or you could finish with a blow job (though I don't prefer that since I'm not a fan of OH cumming in my mouth).

Me & my OH use the withdrawal method and have done for about 3 years, with no accidents.
I think it really is down to how 'controlled' the man can be iykwim

& to answer your question 'TMI but how does the guy... finish?'

My OH, pulls out just before & finishes on me..

Works well for us.

This doesn't solve the problem of mess with me

I have the implant so he could finish in me but I hate the feel of it, obviously when we TCC it'll be different as there'll be a reason for it to stay in! But right now, I'd like to keep it as tidy as possible

He could finish in a wash cloth or something? Then you don't have any of his mess on you.

wwchix · Mar 19th, 2012, 16:05 PM

He just pulls out before he comes, then puts a condom on so he can finish 'in' me

With no mess

Hello

I don't wish to worry you but I've found some very conflicting information surrounding this issue as it's currently of a big interest to me. 2 years ago I became pregnant using that method, unfortunately it wasn't meant to be

and we have just started NTNP as we want to be relaxed about getting pregnant but secretly I'm hoping it's possible that a 2nd miracle will happen.

When this subject pops up on the WTT forums alot of posts say it is a pefectly safe method of contraception, but then when you read the posts on NTNP they all say there is a possibility because of pre-ejaculation etc. Perhaps the posts that are saying as long as it's done correctly it's safe are true & we have been doing it wrong but from what other people have described happens & without giving TMI I don't think we have been doing it incorrectly.

Hope this helps :-)

Thanks for your reply. Im really sorry to hear about your misscarriage

. I was just wondering did you follow all the rules of withdrawal? i.e. making sure the man goes for a wee after ejaculating and washing before having sex again? I think a lot of people dont follow the first one and therefore there would be pre cum, due to not flushing out all the sperm. Im always curious to know if people follow all the rules or do they just pull and pray lol

By the way im not saying you did this, im just curious!!

Good luck with NTNP
