How Women Get Pregnant on Birth Control

Can you tell me how women get pregnant on birth control? I am a man, and I have had more than two ex-girlfriends somehow come up pregnant while they told me they were on birth control. Is this some type of lie women tell? I'm talking about saying they're on an oral contraceptive. How could pregnancy be possible when you are supposedly taking a drug that prevents you from ovulating?

They do it for the money NEW

I know a lot of women get pregnant on purpose for the money. If you are a wealthy man or even if you are financially better of than your partner some females see dollar signs.

If they are lying about the baby then they just want to get you for teh abortion money. If you are really doing well then they may even be willing to have a kid in order to get child support payments from you for the next 18 years. So be careful, and wrap it up.
They missed a pill NEW

One way that women get pregnant on birth control is not taking their pills every day at the same time. You are supposed to take them every day at the same time. I used to choose 9 am in the morning, as soon as I started work so I didn't forget. But there were times on the weekend that I wouldn't take my Ortho tri-cyclen until 11 am or later, when I remembered. That caused me to get pregnant one time, but unfortunately it ended in a miscarriage.
Women Lie About Birth Control NEW
by: Anonymous

Some women lie about being on birth control. I am not one of them, but I have known some in my life. They believe that getting pregnant and having your baby can rekindle or replenish a bad relationship or marriage. They feel that if they are carrying your baby then you won't leave them, and once the child is born you all will be a big happy family. It may sound crazy, but it's true.
