Old School Contraception

One problem with the Trojan Naturalamb is the price. A 12-pack will probably cost $30-$40.

Seeing as how y'all are newlyweds, you may pay more in Naturalamb condoms than in paying for the pill out of pocket.

Natural lamb condoms, besides being gross, are not as effective as latex.

We just pay out of pocket - it's not that expensive, maybe 30 bucks a month - and my wife was pregnant for about 15 months straight before we had the baby (she miscarried after about 4 months - no worries, though, we got pregnant about 10 days after the doc. said to try again).

I should add that our insurance does pay for abortions. I think it's only a $20 co-pay or something akin for the cheapest procedures.

Oh, so it does cover birth control then.

I've never heard of condoms "slipping around", tell me more. I'm curious as to the explanation.

Archea is demonstrating his lack of experience. Interruptus is the superior way, though messy to be sure.

I don't know. I think Archaea is right. I have a friend who was too chicken to buy condoms in Rexburg and got pregnant using this so called interruptus method.

It requires discipline on the man's part. That's why they tell teens never to do it at planned parenting centers. But if the man is disciplined, what could be more effective than CI, i.e., keeping the sperm outside? (It's not true that the initial clear discharge for lubrication can get a woman pregnant.) Moreover, the payoff for the man as well as the woman can be immense in terms of pleasure.

I would think being married to SU was a great form of birth control, but it apparantly doesn't work that way.
