My mother was on the pill when she got pregnant with me apparently. Because of this, I prefer to use a condom too.

This is wrong for a couple of reasons. First of all, like onesnowyowl said, they're independant events. It's the same reason you can buy 5 lottery tickets with a 1 in 5 chance of winning and lose.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, the statistics are based on couples who have sex many times over the course of a time period getting pregnant during said time period. It's meant to represent the fact that 1 out of 100 people who take the pill properly will get pregnant.
