Thank you so much for visiting the website and for your question. Congratulations on your recent wedding--that is great!
I can see where if a couple does not want to use birth control for whatever reason (and I'm assuming this is the case here, but please correct me if I'm wrong), you would look to other methods and this one in theory seems to make sense. But as the statistics quotes in the replies above show, in real life it's not the best method of birth control.
If you are ready to become parents sooner rather than later, and the pull out method works for your husband (in that he can still enjoy intercourse and not stress out about pulling out in the nick of time), and if you like it too, then I personally think you're fine. But if pregnancy is not a good outcome for you right now, and/or if it's causing you to feel stressed out during sex, then maybe it's time to revisit the topic with your husband and see if one or both of you can use contraceptives. That's what it boils down to for me. Please post again if you feel comfortable and give us a little more information as to why you chose this form of birth control, and please also let me know if we can improve the website in any way.
Thank you again for your post! Best in health, Michelle
