I'm extremely detail oriented (aka: OCD). So yeah, I paid attention to all the fine print and was very careful about when I took my pills. It wasn't really the BC pills we had trouble with, though. (I think they're the only method of BC on which I didn't carry a child to term, and were the method responsible for the most years pregnant-less. If I had to choose BC again that's what I'd go with...) I can believe the condoms were personal error, but what about the Norplant? I specifically asked my doctor if I had to use any back-up methods. His answer was "No, definitely not. You're covered for five years." Tell that to my redheaded 6yr old.
