Hi All,
I have been lurking here for a while but this is my first post. Will give you a little background info...I am 22 (almost 23 ) and have been with my partner for 2 years (He is 26). We have just got a house and both have good, fairly well paid jobs.
I did not think I wanted kids...in fact I was very sure I didn't. I have always been on the BCP and never had a pregnancy scare, however, the BCP did cause me to lose my sex drive so I decided to come off it about a month ago....however, since i've come off it I've been getting really broody ...it's totally unlike me...all I can think of is having a baby.
I trust and respect my partner 100% so therefore I have always been honest with him regarding my birth control. I told him straight away when I had stopped taking it a month ago and I must admit we have had unprotected sex a few times since then. He has not made any effort to use condoms or anything although we did discuss it. I have taken a test but it was a BFN...I think any symptoms I have been having are due to me coming off the pill but I guess I could be pregnant. It wouldn't show up on a test yet anyway i'm assuming.
I did discuss the baby thing with my partner. He loves kids - he told me this the first time I met him and I have seen him with other people's babies and he is really good with them! But he said we can't afford it right now but at the same time he didn't totally rule it out......
Why am I so broody all of a sudden?!! AHHHHH. wtf is wrong with me? I really love my OH so if he says we aren't financially stable enough then that is cool and I respect that....but why then is he not forcing the condom issue. I know for a fact if I was pregnant he would totally stand by me and be 10000% supportive as he is just that type of person.
Sorry go blab, just need to get it off my chest!!!
