scary adult things

Child planning. That's an incredibly scary phrase isn't it. CHILD PLANNING. I remember when I turned 21 and started to think that people my age where getting married and having children and I had an anxiety attack. Now that Tim and I are engaged (it almost happened a couple of times, did you know that?) we are starting to talk more in-depth about family planning. Children right after we get married is neither one of our goals so we have been talking over the options. Tim said he would feel comfortable using just condoms even if they do break and so forth. I almost fainted. I told him if the condom broke I would be running naked to the pharmacist.

Scary shit. Babies are terrifying.

I'm going on the pill after I get married because I'm vain and don't want to gain any weight before the big day so if I get pregnant before it's effective I'm going to kill.

gaining weight on the mill seems to be a myth to me. i don't know anyone who has ever gained a noticeable amount of weight from the pill alone. they tend to blame their weight gain on it though instead of eating total crap all the time or sitting around doing nothing all day. i would suggest wearing a condom or using some other method though while you're waiting on the pill to become effective though. it doesn't really take more than 2 weeks to become effective though. or at least that's what a pharmasist told me.

Yep that was the plan floating on condoms till it kicks in.

They say that some people experience weight gain of 5-10 punds depending on the estrogen levels the pills have.

Yea it depends on what kind of pill you go with. But if you do gain weight it doesnt happen right away so you could start to take it a week or so before the wedding

True True. I just don't know how I will react to the pills and the last thing I need is some side effects on my wedding. Plus typically depending on where I am in my cycle it takes a week for them to become effective anyways.

I really don't want to be a blushing barfing bride.
