    Well I didn't deliberately get pregnant without DP knowing about it, but I did accidently fall (I had been told it was not likely that I would fall naturally due to suspected endometriosis) After deciding not to use contraception. (I thought I was safe - word of warning don't beleive the doctors). Neither I or DP were prepared for this, but I must say I was secretly happy. (he was not). 8 years on we are both very happy and last year decidid I should go off the pill again. At first we were using the dodgy withdrawell method, but again I kind of hoped we would have another accident. Nothing happened and we are now properly trying - Definitely with his consent.

    Do you think that counts- I didn't deliberately fall pregnant but I always had the It would be nice - wouldn't mind if it happened thought in my head.

    I have to say our DS is the push he needed cause before he was orn DP didn't want any children at all. Now he wants more

    I was told my chances of falling pregnant were slim to nil as well...

    The pill i was placed on made my body worse, so i did stop taking it, but i didnt tell my partner at the time. We didnt talk much as it was - and he would make my life hell for not taking it and we did use other methods of contraception. But after a few scares - we talked about it anyway, and started ttc.

    Im glad nothing came of it in the end tho. I was 16 at the time...

    Nope. How could I expect him to trust me after something like that? And how can our relationship work without trust?

    i wouldnt do it. why bring a child into the world where one parent would feel resentful about the child existing?

    ds1 was half planned-we both wanted kids and had said so but we didnt expect it to happen as quick as it did lmao
    ds#2-was an opps but we still want him we didnt even know he was in there growing till i was about 8 or 9 weeks lol

    i voted 'not sure' only because i have forgotten to take my pill a few times & not told him straight away & we are both happy to conceive again now should there be an 'accident' so it's not a major iss-yew, ifkwim.

    i don't think i would actively ttc and not let him know...should have thought about it more before i voted, doh!

    Nope, I could never do that to DH, I just don't think its fair for one half of a couple to make that decision for both of you
